Spirit Spousing
It's time to talk about the facts of life, the spirits and bees... let's talk about marrying, getting tangled up with, and falling in love. With spirits. This episode covers what many are taking for granted as a love and light situation, where you end up with the godly spouse of your dreams. But...

Turning Back Time
Walking the traditional shamanistic path created a bit of a conflict for me: Wodan, Frigg, and others aren't in that lore. Or are they? How to reconcile walking a path that does not venerate the spirits that called me to it? By going back to the beginning of course. So welcome back to the…

The Wyrm, Animism, and Angels
Okay, the wyrm did go away I'll give it that. I shouldn't be surprised where it might have gone, but I was... and that prompted me to think about animism, the corruption of the concept, and then ultimately I started to think about those sexy angels. Take a trip with me from hell to heaven and how...

S03 E01 - Boxes Squares and Spirits
In this episode, Spearcarrier opens up about a tumultuous return to—and swift departure from—a commercial shaman school. After feeling "poked off the dragonfly branch" and losing connection to the spirits, a moment of intervention from the spirit world itself turns everything around. We explore…

19 - Escaping from Wyrms
Do you remember what a wyrm is? I remember. I know. For years, I was trapped between two worlds: the fabricated identity my mother pushed on our family and the deep, wyrd magic that was my true inheritance. In this episode, I'm adding to the whole story as I've told it so far. It's a tale of...

18 - Dancing to Death: Trapped In A Fairy Ring
Spearcarrier here—computer fan screamin’, space-heater roastin’ my toes, pizza waitin’ in the wings. Complete with swear words. In this one I sit down with Many Cats and chew over: • the Tale of the Moldy Ham Sandwich (yes, it’s still in the fridge) • how a real-deal fairy ring sucked me into an...
-
17 - Goblins: Soul Eaters Among Us
I wanted to share what I've learned the hard way about identifying and protecting ourselves from parasitic entities, specifically goblins. Oh yes, I learned the hard way that they're very real. We'll go over red flags and discuss how these beings operate. I'll share those traditional protection...

16 - Harsh Gods or Hungry Predators?
They say the gods are so harsh to those they call, they could be considered abusive. The result is an underlying acceptance that suffering is some sort of penance you pay for the honor of being chosen. Those who must endure the negativity are often shunted aside when they complain about how…

15 - Lessons From A Sorrow Drinker
In this reflection, I explore the profound connection between the falling rain and the often-overlooked necessity of grief. We live in a world that encourages us to fight against what we perceive as negative, but what if these forces have a rightful place in the natural order? I share a personal...

14 To the Garden - There and Back Again, But Stronger (Finale)
When the Shamanic Death Cycle Finally Ends In this episode, I’m finally unpacking the conclusion to my wild shamanic awakening journey—what I’ve been calling the “saga of the ham sandwich.” It all kicked off with a harrowing “fairy bride” experience that threw me into a living nightmare. For...
-
13 - To the Garden: The Gods' Arms (part 5)
Warning: this episode contains sensitive topics. In this episode, I’m picking up where I left off in the saga of my shamanic journey, a deeply personal story of being a “walker between worlds.” This journey has been one of immense pain, centered around the separation from my “split soul”—the…

12 - To the Garden: Escape (Part 4)
Welcome back to the River Shaman Ramblings. This week, we continue the “Saga of the Ham Sandwich” with a tale of astral projection, imprisonment, and a desperate bid for freedom. I found my other half, a fairy being, trapped in a new, sterile room by her abusive mate. Her wing, a symbol of our...
-
11 - To the Garden: The Trip Gets Worse (part 3)
In this third installment of River Shaman Ramblings, I pick up the “Ham Sandwich Saga” right where the last episode left off—mid-freefall after the equinox chaos. We revisit the moment my other-half’s insect-wing was sliced, severing her cosmic connection and triggering a cascade of heartbreak,...

10 - To the Garden - The Trip Continues (part 2)
Ever wonder why no one shares what happens when they world-walk or take vision quests? Because it sounds crazy to the average person out-loud. Well, that’s what this episode and the others are about: One helluva crazy ride down astral lane. In this episode, I fill you in on how a routine night of...

09 - To the Garden - A Trip Across the Cosmic Layers
This story is the start of something awful, but I didn’t know it. It would be years before the next part of this story happens. I wasn’t going to share, but the fact is if you’re not ready to hear fantastical things while dealing with the wyrd and supernatural then you’re not ready for the wyrd…

07 - Walking Two Roads, An Unpopular Opinion (now with bad audio!)
Today's issue is not necessarily political, but culture. I will not put my world in danger to share my thoughts on what it is to try to follow two cultural roads: the red road... and the other you might be. Delicate topic. I've been pondering it a very long time. Maybe you can change my mind, but...

A few years ago people tried to destroy my marriage, my home,my happiness and finally my life - through petty magic. The result? Another personal story that culminated into learning something new. Through this event I saw the nasty side of our healthcare system. Peeked through the veil. Witnessed...

04 - Social Disconnect and Liberal Meltdowns
Now that the 2024 election is over, the meltdown that many on the right have been waiting for (with baited breath) has begun. They see it as a source of amusement. I think it's a symptom of a problem we need to face. I might also talk about talking to trees.
