It’s good to find another person who have similar dreams. Welcome to the Family.
If by skinwaker, you mean just the ability to shape-change, then yes it is real and you don’t have to be “evil” to be able to do it.
According to Konstantinos in his book Summoning Spirits, the goetic spirit Ose can teach you this but it takes many years of practice and you may have to first learn astral shape-changing to begin with.
I have no practical experience with this but I have followed the other techniques of Konstantinos proving them to be true for myself and I see no reason for him to make that part up concerning Ose.
Its just a reality of the path. I started in a group that was no-bullshit. No fluffy bunny fairy stuff, real work and effort is required and its not some fun party nonsense. To each their own, but I am happy I ended up amongst a group of practical, grounded people. It was pivotal in making real progress for me. I probably got defensive cuz my bud from there gets real “up my ass” about unsubstantiated claims xD
Yes I do know that shapeshifting is real. I am on that path myself. I was just curious about skinwalkers, as I have found them the most interesting. In ancient Nordic texts there were 2 brothers who turned into wolves by the use of enchanted wolf skins, so the motive of using animal body parts to change one’s form… let’s say it’s much older than Navajo lores and I believe there is something to it
Oh and I am very sorry to tell You that, sir but I do not have astral body anymore. It’s for my benefit. Long story
SKAL! I have reason to believe I’ve been a warrior for a long time…maybe even a berserker a long time ago, but I havent unwound enough stuff to know if Im just pulling shit from nowhere. I know the wolf and eagle are my spirit animals though. Always had a deep connection to canines and wolves in general.
If You feel it deepily in Your core, there is a chance it is not just “pulling shit from nowwhere”. I believe it to be a real calling
Berserkir and Ulfhednar are of the bear and wolf respectively. I’ve never heard of it being a physical transformation into a full on animal, but there seems to be major astral shapeshifting. They live in nature, as there given animal would and usually kept to themselves in war.
While I believe psychedelics or alcohol could have been used to enhance the effects of berserkergang, I believe it is an innate ability. Ive heard several accounts of people freaking out and becoming absolutely frightened by trying it, while others feel strength and energy.
Erm there is one for the boar too. They all embodied different aspects. Also they DID wear the skins of those animals as well.
Then let yourself to be guided by Wolf and Eagle spirits! Based on my experiences, they can make an excellent job and you’ll notice how you are moving forward by them. I do not believe in coincidences, but I do believe in your sophisticated senses. And they won’t lie.
The “astral shapeshifting” is a part of the physical shapeshifting, but of course, you can’t keep it up all the way, because you originally own your human body for a lifetime. However, with this… you have a chance to get the spirit animal’s body in your next life.
I feel myself strongly connected to Wolf, Owl, Bear and Coyote.
The Coyote guided me towards a Skinwalker, weeks ago.
Girl this is so beautiful
I’m not sure if it’s true, but I heard that werewolves in Irish folklore were mostly benevolent.
They would guide people who were lost in the woods and make sure they reached civilization.
Odd, and sorry to derail but i haven’t heard of kelpies in so long… That and stories of changlings, as a kid i use to get so scared that I was actually a changling because id hear random Celtic music outside my windows at night and nobody else did (i grew up in a suburb in Massachusetts, so it didnt make sense) still hear it every so often.
There are also selkies.
Yes, I really love Selkies I wish there were more movies and online shared encounters of them They’re beautiful
Letting the powers to work is a well rewarding operation. And it also requires patience. Not because you’ll get spiritual raise, but because they’ll help to contact the right persons with the right informations, knowledge, and even with yourself!
An Elder Navajo man were our big help; now I know about a ritual, which can help you specifically to encounter one. It is not safe, and you have to get lot of ingredient (I won’t lie, it is hard to get all of those indgredients, so it can take even months to prepare).
To be honest, some days ago I started to think about processes, different ways how you can transform. Then suddenly a picture of my grandma came into my mind. I noticed immediately, that she was my first kill (as I wrote about it before), and she was a person whom I loved so much. When she broke my heart, I cursed her. Within two weeks, her arm got chopped by a machine. I didn’t killed her yet.
Months ago, my near relatives started to harass and abuse me and my family. I wanted to take revenge on them in a most painful way. I knew, that they love her, so my target became my grandmother whom I didn’t speak since that tragedy (and believe me when I say, I could hug and smile at her with the more honest emotions; with love). She died within 2 weeks, and I got the chance to smile at my relatives on the funeral.
Technically, I killed a beloved one just because I want to cause pain to my other relatives. Her ghost haunted me for years after I killed her.
This fast vision like retrospect coming from nowhere is helped me to realize, that somewhere deep inside I’m not that innocent person who I wanted to appear before others, and there is a reason why I had to leave magick for silent months ago (before Skinwalkjer has came into my life), when I felt the corruption in my mind. Every time when it hit this state, someone has died or ended up near to death.
The most interesting part of it, that everyone in my near thinks that I am the protector of the family and all people who ask her help. Which is true. Even me believes in this. But wonder if I lost the control again, or a reason just came up to do what I did before, what would stop me?
Dear this sounds horrible… I am sure that there is a way You can stop being a danger to those You care for those You do not wish to harm Sometimes with great power indeed comes great responsibility and when that power is not being controlled the responsibility can turn into an actual burden… I really hope that this chain of unfortunate events will be broken and You will be able to lead a normal life or even maybe trully become someone’s protector Hmm… You mean contacting them in the physical, or summoning these shamans’ spirits? I won’t lie… I am curious but… If it is really that dangerous… Could I or someone close to me suffer as a potential side effect of said ceremony?
You killed her months ago, but her ghost haunted you for years after? Did noone catch this?
Faustus, if you do a research back you’ll see that I killed her long years ago.
I was way younger when it happened. My first curse in THAT year caused that she lost her arm. We didn’t contacted with each other after that at all. Months ago (after this happened), my near relatives started to abuse and harass us, and this was my second curse which leaded towards her death.
As I said before, my first kill happened when I was 14 years old (and as I mentioned, she was my grandmother - so it happened 8 years ago). I killed my doctor in the same year. It was a very painful year in my life, filled with depression (and I got cancer after that) and anger. This is why the doctor became an another victim of mine. I was lost, in fury and mad.
This was the first sign of corruption and a very powerful evidence of how unstable I am.
Yeah, you are referring to the above which exactly says you killed her years ago. Now you are saying she was just injured years ago and killed months ago. both accounts can’t be true
