Dear Shamanic Healers, Teachers, Colleagues, and New Friends,
“The more people that are doing shamanic work, work that is connected to the earth, the faster the tipping point will be to restoring the Earth to balance.” — Taita Itzhak Beery, Founder ShamanPortal
WITH GRATITUDE AND OPTIMISM WE LOOK TO THE FUTURE Over the past five years, Shamans Directory has grown from a heartfelt vision into a living global community rooted in relationship, reciprocity, earth-based wisdom, healing, and shared stewardship. What began as a whisper from Spirit became a vision, and that vision found its way into form. Over time, we have come to realize that Shamans Directory is more than an organization or a directory. It is a living, breathing community that continues to grow through the relationships, prayers, generosity, and shared purpose of everyone who contributes to it. We have always said that Shamans Directory belongs to all of us. It is a global community, a living network, much like the mycelium beneath the forest floor, connecting people, traditions, and medicine holders across the Earth. We offer our deepest gratitude to all of the Ambassadors, Elders, teachers, practitioners, organizations, volunteers, and community members who have helped us to carry this vision forward! 30+ Ambassadors 100+ Members 11,000+ Subscribers 54,000+ Website Visitors 80+ Live Online Gatherings 122,000+ Global Event Participants As we begin our sixth year and step into a new five-year cycle, our task is not simply to grow the Directory, but to tend it, to care for it with love, integrity, and responsibility so that future generations may continue to gather around this fire. Our hope is that we will continue to grow, not merely in size, but in depth — in integrity, reciprocity, right relationship, and service to the Earth and to one another. If Shamans Directory has inspired you, connected you, supported your healing journey, introduced you to meaningful teachers, expanded your understanding of our world, or helped you feel a part of something larger than yourself, we invite you to help us steward this next chapter. 🌞✨ Expanding access to authentic healings and teachings 🌞✨ Creating meaningful community gatherings 🌞✨ Preserving and forwarding lineage-based wisdom 🌞✨ Supporting Indigenous voices and traditions 🌞✨ Strengthening respectful cross-cultural relationships 🌞✨ Continuing to build bridges between ancient wisdom and modern seekers 🌞✨ Building an infrastructure that can hold us as we grow well into the future.

WALKING THE PATH OF ABUNDANCE | LIVE ONLINE EVENT A Journey of Remembering How to Receive With Marleni Vilca Munay Founder of Pachamama Hampina Wasi Saturday 25 July 2026 8am PDT / 10am Peru / 11am EDT / 5pm CET
What if abundance is not something we must chase, earn, or struggle to create? What if it is something we can remember?
We warmly invite you to join us with Shamans Directory Member Marleni Vilca Munay for a live online gathering exploring a different understanding of abundance — one rooted in the wisdom of Pachamama, the creative force of the feminine, reciprocity, gratitude, and community.
Over the past several years, Marleni has been on a profound personal journey of learning to receive. Like many who walk a spiritual path, she once struggled with the belief that sacred work and material abundance could not coexist. Her journey has led her to a new understanding: honoring the value of ancestral wisdom, allowing ourselves to receive, and creating the resources to serve, build, share, and give back are all part of the same sacred exchange.
In this intimate gathering, Marleni will invite us to explore the inherited beliefs and patterns that may shape our relationship with abundance. Where are we holding back? What are we longing to create? What might become possible if we opened ourselves more fully to receive
Drawing upon the living wisdom of the Andes and the unfolding story of Pachamama Hampina Wasi, Marleni will share how abundance is found not in accumulation, but in relationship — in the ways we nourish one another, create together, express gratitude, and recognize that we were never meant to do this alone.
Come with an area of your life that is asking to grow. Perhaps abundance is already calling.
This event is open to all. No preregistration is required.
Suggested contribution $12 Your support helps our work to continue. Together, we are powerful medicine.™️

ANDEAN HOLY WORDS FOR PRAYER, HEALING, AND CEREMONY | ONLINE COURSE A 13-Part Online Teaching Series With Pampamesayoq Medicine Man Wilbert Salas Atasi
Hosted by Mayumi Beckers
A Shamans Directory Offering 9 September – 21 October 2026
Words carry energy, intention, memory, and meaning. Sacred words do even more: they shape prayer, open ceremonial space, deepen healing, and strengthen our relationship with Spirit, Pachamama, the Apus, and the Cosmos.
We warmly invite you to join Pampamesayoq Medicine Man and ceremonialist Wilbert Salas Atasi for a rare 13-part journey into the sacred language of the Andes.
Through words, prayers, songs, and ceremonial expressions preserved within a living lineage, Wilbert will guide participants beyond translation and into the deeper wisdom, values, symbolism, and cosmology carried within the language itself.
Over thirteen 90-minute teachings, we will explore the spiritual names of people, animals, and sacred places; traditional ceremonial tools; sacred words for opening ceremonial space; language used in ceremony and energy healing; and sacred songs and chants. Each session will build upon the last, offering both cultural understanding and practical ways to deepen your own relationship with prayer, healing, ceremony, and the living world.
No previous Andean training or Mesa medicine bundle is required. Whether you are a beginner, an experienced practitioner, or simply curious, you are welcome to come with an open heart and a sincere desire to learn.
Wilbert will be joined by Andean shamanic practitioner Mayumi Beckers, who will serve as host and teaching assistant. Recordings, sacred-word PDFs, and supporting summaries will be provided for continued learning.
Come listen more deeply to these sacred words — and the world from which they arise.
Each month, we are honored to share a selection of offerings from the wider global shamanic community, as an invitation to explore, learn, and connect with shamanic cultures across the world.
SHAMANIC WISDOM FOR CHANGING TIMES | ONLINE EVENT
Empower Your Dreams for All of Life A Free Online Event with Sandra Ingerman Through The Shift Network Saturday 11 July 2026
How has the practice of shamanism evolved over the past half century, and what timeless principles remain essential in our rapidly changing world?
Join world-renowned shamanic author and teacher Sandra Ingerman for a free introductory online event as she reflects on nearly five decades of teaching the universal principles of shamanism and the profound changes she has witnessed.
During this inspiring session, Sandra will explore what has changed, what remains timeless, and why these ancient practices may be more important now than ever before.
As the author of fourteen influential books and one of the world’s most respected teachers of contemporary shamanic practice, Sandra offers a unique perspective on preserving the heart of these ancient traditions while navigating an increasingly technological world.
She will highlight the enduring values of deep initiation, humility, embodiment, ethics, groundedness, and a living relationship with Nature and the helping spirits. She will also share how the practice of direct revelation enables us to receive guidance, healing, and wisdom from compassionate spiritual allies, helping us meet personal and collective challenges with greater clarity and purpose.
The event will conclude with a community fire ceremony, inviting participants to dream a more harmonious future for themselves, their communities, and all of life.
Sandra will also introduce her upcoming 12-week Shift Network course, featuring ten respected teachers from ShamanicTeachers.com and exploring journeying, healing, embodiment, nature connection, shadow work, sacred songs, death and dying, flower essences, ancestral healing, and more.
Whether you are new to shamanism or an experienced practitioner, this free event offers a wonderful opportunity to learn from one of the field’s most respected voices.
THE COMPLETION OF Ē, ATLANTIS | ONLINE WORKSHOP How to Defy the Atlantean Reset A 3-part Ceremonial Series With Ke’oni Hanalei
Sundays 12, 19 & 26 July 2026
Many ancient wisdom traditions describe civilizations that rose, flourished, and ultimately fell through imbalance, ego, and corruption. Within the Mū Hawaiian lineages, one such civilization is known as Ē — a culture characterized by materialism, possession, and extraordinary technological advancement, presented as the opposite of Mū (Lemuria). Could this culture of Ē be the legendary civilization of Atlantis, and is humanity repeating the same pattern today?
As humanity becomes increasingly shaped by technology, consumerism, artificial intelligence, and digital identity, we are invited to ask profound questions. Are we caught in a cycle of excess, unresolved trauma, and identification with status, achievement, and possessions? Or are we being called to restore a more balanced, heart-centered relationship with ourselves, one another, and the Earth.
Join Ke’oni Hanalei for a thought-provoking three-part series exploring the two great timelines Mū and Ē — Lemuria and Atlantis — and their symbolic and spiritual relationship. Together, we will explore what these teachings may reveal about humanity's current crossroads and how these two currents may ultimately be brought back into balance.
Drawing from preserved Mū-Hawaiian traditions, Ke’oni presents Atlantis not simply as a lost civilization, but as a pattern of consciousness whose lessons may still shape our collective experience. Through teachings, dialogue, and ceremony, we will explore discernment, ethical stewardship, and practical ways of moving beyond cycles of imbalance toward greater harmony.
Whether understood as history, metaphor, or spiritual teaching, these traditions invite us to reflect on one essential question: What is humanity being asked to remember and what are we being called to complete?
Recordings will be made available to all who register.
ANDEAN SHAMANIC MEDICINE | IN PERSON IRELAND Ten Days of Teaching, Ceremony Traditional Wisdom
With Master Don Alejandro Apaza Machaca Hosted by Green Tara College
17–26 July 2026 | Ireland
This July, a rare doorway into the living medicine traditions of the Andes will open in Ireland.
For ten days, respected Peruvian Paqo Don Alejandro Apaza Machaca will share teachings, ceremonies, initiations, and practical healing traditions carried through generations of his family and community.
Now 74, Don Alejandro descends from a lineage of Chumpi and K’uychi (Rainbow) Paqos. Raised in the remote Andean community of Quicco, within the Q’ero Nation, he grew up surrounded by sacred mountains, rivers, waterfalls, and generations of traditional practitioners. With 60 years of experience as a healer and guardian of sacred nature, he now travels to share the wisdom entrusted to him.
Participants may attend individual classes, themed sections, or the complete ten-day training. Teachings include Andean principles for living in harmony; coca or bay leaf divination; six traditional forms of despacho; Chumpi stone healing; the Seven Ñustas healing tradition; soul retrieval; cleansing practices; and ways of connecting with sacred sites and places of power.
At the heart of the training is Ayni — living in loving reciprocity and harmony with Nature, community, and the cosmos.
This is more than an opportunity to learn techniques. It is an invitation to sit with an elder of a living lineage and encounter a worldview in which healing arises through relationship with Pachamama, the Apus, the spirits of Nature, and the greater balance that holds all life.
Come for a day, a teaching, or the full journey.
Spaces and Beings Inside the Earth An Andean Wisdom Online Workshop With Vilma Pinedo and Francisco Victoria Module 1: July 24, Module 2: August 21 2026
What lies beneath the surface of the Earth and within ourselves? In the Andean tradition, the Ukhu Pacha, the Inner World, is a realm of fertile darkness, ancestral memory, and the foundational forces that sustain all visible life. It is here that the seeds of our deepest potential are nurtured, taking root before emerging into the light.
Join Shamans Directory Member Vilma Pinedo, an Andean wisdom keeper from Cusco, together with cultural facilitator Francisco Victoria, for a profound online workshop exploring the living energies of the Earth and the sacred beings known as the Allpakuna.
Through the lens of Andean cosmology, participants will cultivate a deeper relationship with the Earth's interior and discover how its wisdom can support grounding, healing, and personal transformation.
Together, you will explore the Ñustas of the Deep Waters, the feminine intelligences associated with purification and renewal; the Ukhu Muhu, the "Inner Seed" that holds our latent gifts and ancestral memory; the energetic qualities of quartz, iron, gold, and silver; and the ancient pathways of the Ñaupa Machu, whose primordial wisdom continues to guide humanity.
Each session combines inspiring teachings, experiential practices, guided exercises, integration rituals, and opportunities for questions and reflection, allowing participants to embody these teachings in daily life.
Whether you are new to Andean wisdom or seeking to deepen your connection with the living Earth, this workshop offers a beautiful invitation to slow down, listen deeply, and remember the quiet intelligence that lives beneath your feet and within your own being.
The Life Within Everything Featuring Rakel Arke Sanímuinaq and Other Respected Healers, Artists, Activists & Knowledge Holders
Produced by Science & Nonduality (SAND)
28-29 July 2026
We are deeply moved to invite our global community to experience Sila: The Life Within Everything, a visually luminous and spiritually profound film from The Eternal Song, the remarkable 12-film documentary series created by Science & Nonduality (SAND).
Featuring Shamans Directory Member and Inuit Angakker (Shaman) Rakel Arke Sanímuinaq, alongside other respected Inuit knowledge holders, Sila journeys through three centuries of Danish colonialism and cultural suppression.
In Greenland, Sila is the living consciousness that moves through and connects all beings. In this way, Sila is not a story of loss. It is a story of remembering.
Through breathtaking cinematography, the film carries us into ceremony: the restoration of shamanism, the heartbeat of the drum, traditional healing, and the return of ancestral body markings.
Your donation of any amount provides immediate access to the film, a companion workbook, and a remarkable two-day live gathering on July 28–29.
Watch now or join the communal screening before gathering live with those whose stories are woven throughout the film.
Join a communal screening and intimate conversations with Inuit healers, artists, activists, and knowledge holders exploring shamanic lineage and the soul’s return, healing from colonial trauma, drum dancing, sacred markings, belonging, and cultural resilience.
The Medicine You Seek is Seeking You A Festival for People & Planet 12–17 August 2026 | Berkshire, England
This August, thousands of people will gather among the ancient trees and open parkland of the beautiful Wasing Estate for six days of music, ceremony, wisdom, creativity, and community.
Medicine Festival is difficult to describe because it is so much more than a festival. It is a meeting place, bringing together Indigenous wisdom keepers, artists, musicians, visionaries, teachers, healers, and people from many cultures and traditions to explore one essential question:
How can we be the medicine?
Through ceremony, storytelling, sacred music, talks, workshops, healing practices, and time together on the land, Medicine Festival invites us to remember ways of living rooted in gratitude, reciprocity, respect, and guardianship for all life.
At its heart is a vision of a world in which Nature is cherished, peace is revered, difference is celebrated, and communities come together across cultures to create a more equitable and thriving future. As a Community Interest Company, Medicine Festival also supports organizations, projects, and communities working to preserve sacred traditions, uplift Indigenous peoples, and protect and regenerate the Earth.
We warmly invite our global community to experience this extraordinary gathering — to sit in circle, listen deeply, celebrate, learn, and remember what becomes possible when we come together with open hearts and a shared prayer for people and planet.
Third Annual Ñaupa Tantanakuy Apukuna With 13 Elders from Around the World
Hosted by Marleni Vilca Munay Pachamama Hampina Wasi 15-22 September 2026 | Cusco, Peru
The call of Mother Earth and the spirits of the Andes and humanity is clear and strong. This gathering will focus on the transmission of Ancestral Wisdom to the New Humanity which will be fueled and shaped by the message of unification, integration, harmony of divine feminine and masculine energy as a source of creation, life, beauty, joy, and freedom.
With a heart filled with love, Shamans Directory Member Marleni Vilca Munay warmly welcomes you to this sacred ancestral journey, inviting you to reconnect with the wisdom, memory, and medicine that native communities have devotedly safeguarded for millennia.
Many of us living in the modern world have been caught in a labyrinth of illusions, expectations, and fears that have obscured our essence and power. Now, it is time to remember who we really are and what our purpose is in this life experience. Together, as one heart, let us inspire and strengthen one another on this journey.
This time in human experience is crucial, a call to restore the connection with the wisdom of our ancestors and to remember how to live harmoniously with Mother Nature and among ourselves as a community. Welcome to your sacred transformation as you walk the ancestral path. We thank you for your efforts and dedication in returning to Mother Pachamama, to your ancestral roots that will guide and strengthen us in manifesting our expansion and ascension as humans and ancestral galactic beings. May the Great Spirit and Pachamama bless and guide every step of your lives and your families.

This beautiful book tells the story of a young girl named Dayo and her family’s everyday practice of Hoodoo.
Daily rituals in Dayo's family include the use of mantras and affirmations to guide their intentions and actions and visiting their family altar to clean the house, show respect and gratitude to their ancestors, and seek guidance and blessings.
Recommended by distinguished writer, spirit woman, and Shamans Directory Member Mawiyah Bomani, the story begins on a Saturday morning when Dayo wakes up after having a perplexing dream about a yellow bird.
Determined to understand the message from the dream, she sets out to decipher its meaning throughout her day.
Remaining observant of the world around her, Dayo views small occurrences — like finding unexpected money (pennies and dimes) and seeing physical depictions of yellow birds — as signs and messages from her ancestors.
This lovely story is an affirming celebration of Hoodoo as a beautiful tradition of family, heritage, intuition, and finding magic in everyday life.
