JOURNEY OF WHITE BEAR~DREAMING THE GREAT SPIRIT

I am SO excited to be sharing this : ) Join us for this magical adventure on Fall Equinox, Saturday September 22nd, 2012! Many BlesSings Nazli The Bear is the keeper of the dreamtime, and stores the teachings of dreams until the dreamer wakes up to them. Many have called this space of inner-knowing the Dream Lodge, where the death of the illusion of physical reality overlays the expansiveness of eternity. It is in the Dream Lodge that our ancestors sit in Council and advise us regarding alternative pathways that lead to our goals. Bears hibernate in the winter, which explains their association with "dreaming the Great Spirit" or retrospection. The symbolism of the Bear's cave reflects returning to the womb of Mother Earth. (A cave is an archetype for the mind - sleep - returning/flying/​spiraling to higher consciousness.) This also suggests a strong feminine aspect, one of nurturing and protection. Bear cubs, born in the early spring, can spend as many as seven years with their mother before reaching maturity. Many have developed the skill of visualizing new things, but as a result can get caught up in the dreaming, making little progress in waking reality. Bear's medicine includes introspection, healing, solitude, wisdom, change, and communication with Spirit, expiry and rebirth, transformation, astral travel, creatures of dreams, and mystics. Join us on the amazing evening of exploration and discovery. Facilitated by Leonard Howell and Angelaya Rose of the Dream Shaman Pathways. Hosted by Rainflower Blessings. Saturday September 22, 2012, 7 -10 pm @ Rainflower Blessings Cost : $40 students and seniors, $50 Regular Please contact Nazli to Pre pay and Pre register, space is limited! 250-385-3743 or nazlirainflower@yahoo.com Please bring a cushion, a blanket and a water bottle.

SHAMANIC JOURNEY OF THE STRONG SUN MOON

So looking forward to facilitating another Shamanic Drum Journey. Journey of The Strong Sun Moon ( on Sun Bear's Wheel) occurs June 21-July 22nd. The Strong Sun Moon is the first moon of Shawnodese, Spirit Keeper of the South, and occurs at the time of the summer solstice. The animal for the Strong Sun Moon is the flicker, the mineral totem is the carnelian agate, the plant is the wild rose, and the colour is pink. The elemental influence is from the Frog clan. From the flicker, people experiencing this position can learn about their desire for self-expression; from the carnelian their strong heart connection; and from the rose, about their ability both to heal and to inspire. The Strong Sun Moon teaches about the importance of the emotions and the need for a strong home base. People experiencing the energy of this position are intuitive and wild in some aspects of being, but conservative and home loving in others. The Strong Sun Moon will educate you about the law of relationship and about family. Mothering, and nurturing. While working with the flicker you must guard against wallowing in all your emotions and about fearing to take any stand. Join in for the adventure if you hear the call : ) facilitated by Nazli, Friday July 13th, 7-9 pm. $20/person @ Rainflower Blessings Pre payment and pre registration is required, space is limited! Please bring blanket, cushion/s and a water bottle. Please arrive a few minutes early. Mitakuye Oyasin All My Relations Nazli

Soul Retrieval II ~ The Past Life Connection

In the Ancient teachings of the people, the soul is eternal and needs more than one lifetime to work through various lessons or initiations. We all have what is called “soul theme lessons” e.g. vows of poverty or suffering. One will keep reincarnating into bodily form with this pending lesson needing to be worked out. When one retrieves these vows, the vows or inappropriate contracts can be consciously erased. This way one only has to erase it once even though it may have been experienced in many incarnations or lives. It is a fascinating field of study that we will explore in a wonderful classroom setting. Our Facilitator Leonard Howell has been successfully helping thousands of people through this healing modality for more that 20 years. Join us on Sunday June 10, 2012 for an exciting class of quests and discovery at Rainflower Blessings in Victoria, BC When : Sunday June 10th 2012 3-5 pm Where: Rainflower Blessings Cost : $40 per person Please Pre Pay and Pre Register, space is limited.

If you missed module I but would like to take this class, we are offering another class please read on! Shamanic Soul Retrieval Module #1 In shamanism it is believed that part of the human soul is free to leave the body. The soul is the axis mundi, the center of the shamanic healing arts. Shamans change their state of consciousness, through drumming or rattling, to allow their free soul to travel and retrieve ancient wisdom and lost power. Because a portion of the soul is free to leave the body it will do so when dreaming, or it will leave the body to protect itself from potentially damaging situations be they emotional or physical. In situations of trauma the soul piece may not return to the body on its own, and a shaman must intervene and return the soul essence. There are many reasons for soul loss. If a person was in an abusive situation part of one’s may leave to protect itself from the abuse. Sometimes as a child, fighting parents may prompt the soul part to hide because the child is scared. If a traumatic accident were about to happen such as impact, the soul would leave so that it wouldn’t be affected by the force of the accident. If a loved one passes on, the soul part may go until the person is ready to deal with the grief. All of these are very healthy mechanisms of protection. In some cases the soul part will return on it’s own, however if it does not know how to return or it does not know that it is safe to return – the Shamanic Practitioner may need t assist the return of that missing fragment.

SHAMANIC JOURNEY OF THE WHITE WOLF ~ PATHFINDER TO SUCCESS

I am thrilled to be sharing this with you. Join us for the Journey of the White Wolf ~ Pathfinder to Success. Another amazing Journey Facilitated by Leonard Howell and Angelaya Rose Howell. The Journey is facilitated through the powerful sounds of the singing drum, the gentle cedar flute as well as ancient chants and the language of the light. Do you hear the call? Then say yes to this magical and transformational adventure. BlesSings Nazli Rainflower “When I was just nine years old living in rural Saskatchewan Canada, while tobogganing with my friend in the winter. I came upon what appeared to be the apparition of a White Wolf. There, from an ancient Native burial ground it emerged and followed me. I quickly ran, as my childhood imagination raced I breathed in the cold snowy air, and then suddenly it was there before me waiting to be embraced! ~ Leonard Howell The White Wolf is the Pathfinder, and the color white represents purity of spirit and the highest integrity. Wolves are the original teacher and according to legend once taught man to hunt and gather. The great symbolism of the White Wolf suggests it is Sacred, Holy and Pure. Wolf teaches the balance between authority and democracy; how to use ritual to establish order and harmony within our life and family; and to understand that true freedom requires discipline and following Natural Law. The White Wolf as our chosen Totem Teacher for our journey indicates that we are choosing to have a loyal and powerful guardian and protector around us at all times. Come join us for this incredible journey of the White Wolf and let us allow the wolf to show us the path to success.

The Teachings of The White Raven

Let us celebrate Earth day together, in an exploration of landscape effigies. Join us for another wonderful adventure on Sunday April 22nd. One of the most important and facsinating stories on the coast is the story of how the Raven stole the light! Long ago Raven( who was originally a white bird) stole the light ( that was trapped in a box) and as he flew up the chimney he turned black! Our stars, moon and the sun come from the light he/she spilled. To this day Ravens are black except for very few! It is extremely rare to see a white Raven. Recently several White Ravens have been seen around coastal British Columbia! And they have appeared to share a message! Teachings of The White Raven is a fascinating story/adventure of some of the important messages that were communicated to Donald Allen, our facilitator on this journey! Donald's journey of communicating with animals, plants and the natural world around him began as a teenager, begining with a Deer communicating with him, saying "follow me and see one of your main totems" and as he followed he met his first totem animal and that was the begining of a magical series of events unfolding. As he followed his intuition and listened to the world around him, the veils started thinning and he became more and more intuned! From all this emerged a magical discovery. In this course Donald will share his story, his discovery and how we can all tune into and communicate with the animal kingdom, the plant kingdom and our world. Opening new doors to consciousness. Join us on this adventure of a lifetime and discover your own magical story.
