The Shamanic Essences can be safely
used by anyone seeking to develop and integrate the Shaman within. For
those whose life path is that of the Shaman, these essences will help
to lighten and sweeten the path as well as activating latent abilities
stored from previous Shamanic lifetimes. Since our culture has
forgotten how to be supportive of our natural Shamans and Healers,
these essences will help those born to this path to find the courage
and strength to follow their path and return Shamanism to its rightful
place of honor and respect.
Even though these essences are
completely safe, they are extremely powerful. Use with common sense,
starting with 4 to 8 drops a day at dosage solution (4 drops stock to
1oz. spring water), noticing carefully any reactions you are having
with the essences and then increasing the dose as you feel guided to do
so. These essences can bring about profound shifts in your levels of
consciousness and perceptions of reality, truly the hallmark of the
Shamanic path. Use these essences with the highest intent and from the
heart and you will be blessed many times over.—Lynx

NOTE from Healing Waters ownership:
Recently there have been widely publicized, yet completely false,
statements made and distributed over the Internet about the veracity of
the Shamanic essences and integrity of both Lynx Graywolf and Healing
Waters for offering essences based on traditional aboriginal and Native
American archetypes and objects. At no time have any traditions been
inappropriately infringed upon in the making of these essences, and no
objects (no Kachinas, crystals, etc.) are sold by this store, which
exclusively carries essences in dropper bottles and misting bottles,
empty dosage bottles, empty bottle necklaces (except the two Korte PHI
handblown glass pendants, which are filled and permanently sealed),
skin care creme, and books about essences and vibrational medicine
(which includes sound, light, color, and homeopathy, as well as
essences). While most essences are made the traditional way as laid out
by Dr. Edward Bach in England in the 1930s, several companies use
alternate methods to create essences without the direct use of any
plant or gem. Some of these alternate methods are based on the use of
archetypes and totem animals and channeling and journeying, depending
on the abilities and preferences of each brand.
Ant
Group harmony and unity, working with patience and persistence to build
your dreams over time. Teaches discipline, being willing to work with
others to achieve a common goal.
Bobcat
Strong psychic and intuitive awareness, mysticism and sexual/creative
magic are some of the things that Bobcat can teach. Also being able
to see that which is hidden, learning to trust your own instincts
no matter what other people seem to think is true at the time. Learning
how to be a wonderful counselor or therapist, one who can really be
of service to other people. Knowing when to share and when to keep
silent, learning that there is great power and wisdom in silence.
Copperhead Snake
Copper is a wonderful conducter of energy and so too does the Copperhead
Snake teach us how to conduct large amounts of energy without blowing
a fuse or feeling overwhelmed by the flow. This essence can be very
helpful for someone who is experiencing Kundalini rising and several
women have noted that they found it helpful for Hot Flushes whilst
going through Menopause. Copperhead's can teach how to become more
sensitive over-all to energy flows, the energy that other people and
we ourselves carry that we may have been unaware of before and how
we can use that energy if it is positive or transmute into something
positive if this is what is needed. The Copperhead can also teach
one how to stand one's ground, to demand that others be respectful
and give us our rightful space.
Damselfish
Learning how to defend what is rightfully yours, not allowing other
people or circumstances to get the upper hand. Recognising that you
have greater strength and resources within and that even the small
can be mighty!
Dog
Loyalty, uncondional love, true companionship and uniting with one's
"Soul Pack" are what Dogs can teach. Also about being true
to yourself, respecting and honouring fully the person that you are.
Elephant
Strong connection with the Earth, the ability
to move obstacles out of one's way and to achieve greatness are some
of what Elephant represents. Like the Hindu God Ganehsa, Elephant
can help you to achieve great things in life when you allow it to
walk before you and clear the path ahead. Telepathy, the ability to
communicate via the mind over vast distances is another attribute
that one can learn from Elephant. Those working with aromatherapy
can find Elephant to be of great assistance and a source of wisdom.
Ferret
Learning how to navigate through tight situations.
Giraffe
I actually had a dream about Giraffe shortly before producing this
essence. Or rather, Giraffe appeared in the form of a dear friend
who was quite tall in the dream, much taller than in real life. I
realised it was Giraffe sharing with me that its medicine in part
is the ability to stand above all of life and detach to see what is
really happening. Giraffe also represents the bridge between "that
which is above and below", connecting us with Higher Wisdom and
Knowledge that we may live more joyful lives. When Giraffe appears
in a person's life it is important for them to begin looking ahead
to the future. Spending time in meditation or just by being quiet
and asking what lies ahead that you need to know about can be very
helpful in charting your life course. Often Giraffe indicates that
many changes lie ahead and you have the power now to decide which
of those things you wish to move towards.
Grasshopper
Grasshopper is for taking great leaps forward with joy and ease. When
Grasshopper makes it's presence known in a person's life it is an
indication that one needs to get moving in a big way, there are often
goals and plans the person has been "sitting on" for some
time and now is the time to take action on those things. Grasshopper
can also teach you what is really right for you, what methods and
tools will make the most positive difference in your life. Even if
it is something that is radically different from what others are doing,
it will more often than not work for you. Grasshopper says it is time
to move forward, leap into something new and be open to the wisdom
and guidance of others who have trod the path long before you and
can help you see more clearly what you are leaping into (Guides and
Intution are also often associated with Grasshoppers so trust your
Inner Wisdom!)
Ibis
The Ibis is a sacred bird who is related to Thoth, the Egyptian God
of Healing and Magic. The Ibis can teach us how to create more sacred
space within ourselves and our lives, to transform toxins and negative
energies into new forms that can bring about great healing and positive
change. Those who are pursuing a metaphysical/occult path will find
the Ibis to be especially helpful in knowing what teachings are appropriate
for them and how to fully embrace the wisdom and knowledge those paths
have to offer.
Jackal
The Jackal is sacred to Anubis, the Jackal headed God of the Underworld.
As such, the Jackal can help us to navigate through times of darkness,
death, transistion and rebirth. Anubis also represents Guardianship
and so too does the Jackal offer protection and support. Travel and
journeys of all sorts are under the protection of Jackal, especially
those involving spiritual pursuits and yet Jackal can be called upon
to help guide and protect one during any mundane travel as well. Jackal
can also help us to know who will act towards us wih fairness and
honesty, those whose hearts are "lighter than a feather"
and those whose true intentions are dark and heavy.
Lion
The Lion represents Royalty and the dawning of a new day with the
rising of the Sun. Lion can teach one how to be more accepting of
one's true inner beauty and is very helpful for feeling worthy of
having good in one's life. Lion also represents community and how
one fits in with the community and groups one is associated with.
Lion can help direct you to those people that will be willing to work
with you and will honour your place within the group.
Merlin (Pigeon Hawk)
Merlin represents the ability to shapeshift, and can be a very helpful
teacher in learning how to shapeshift your reality into the one you
are truly wanting. Merlin is also associated with the Magician Merlin
and here too can teach us much about magic and mysticism. Merlin was
also a master of disguise so when you work with this Falcon, you are
also calling upon the energy of Merlin to help you with what ever
you are seeking to create, including being able to keep what you are
creating hidden from others until the time is appropriate to bring
it out into the open.
Milk Snake
Elimination of toxins, not being affected by other people's negativity,
but allowing it to roll off your back with grace and ease. Especially
helpful when you need to be in a group of people where there is much
hostility and judgment happening among the members, whether it is
openly expressed or more covert. Being much more aware of how other's
energies do in fact impact you and then taking the steps you are guided
to take to prevent those energies from further disrupting your life
if they are in fact negative or empowering your life if they are positive.
Prairie Dog
Prairie Dogs are extremely sociable and affectionate creatures, and
thus can teach how us to connect more fully with the expression of
physical touch and expressions of love. For those who have trouble
touching others or being touched, the Prairie Dog can help these people
feel more relaxed and able to give and receive affection. Many Massage
therapists would do well to call upon Prairie Dog as a totem to help
them know how best to use their healing gift of touch to best help
and support each of the people that they serve.
Puffin
Puffins can teach us how to gently laugh at ourselves and life in
general that we don't become bogged down in heaviness but remember
that the best way to resolve any difficult situation in life is to
lighten up and find the humour behind it all. Puffins also represent
the need to use prayer to manifest what is desired in life and to
be mindful that all of our thoughts are indeed prayers and affirmations
that we are sedning forth into the Universe. They are a reminder that
we are always communicating with The Universe so we need to be aware
of what we are communicating! Puffins are sea birds and as such they
can teach us how to dive into the ocean of life to gain abundance.
Raccoon
Raccoon can help us to take new risks and explore the unknown, even
when it seems rather frightening and we would prefer to hang back.
They are extremely curious animals and seem to have very little fear
of humans, at least all the ones I have connected with over the years
have shown more curiosity than fear of me! The mask a Raccoon wears
is very symbolic of altered states of consciousness and respresents
the ability to shift from one level of consciousness to another with
great ease. Working with Masks in our own life can help us to transform
different aspects of ourselves more easily and effectively. A Mask
can take us out of who we think we are and allow us to explore a new
aspect of ourselves or even one that we may wish to acquire. Raccoons
are also quite capable of defending themselves and their territory,
even those that I have been very close to I have watched carefully
to be certain it did not feel threatened by my presence and thus attack.
Here too they can teach us how to defend our own space and ourselves
if needed.
