On the shamanic path, one thing that can be hard in the start and perhaps even further on, is that you become aware of how very much seen you are. Have you ever felt like no one sees you because you are carrying something you don’t really wish to share? Or have you oppositely felt that someone sees through you and the pain you are trying to hide? Both is possible, and both is very real to the person having the experience. Have you read, heard, or perhaps seen a movie where there is a theme of an all-seeing eye? We don’t have to look very far, how about, yes, the “Lord of the Rings”, although there it isn’t portrayed in such a nice way. Look to the Mediterranean area, and you will find different words for a protective eye or hand. Names such as hamsa, and traces back to the Mesopotamian area. The eye in the hand has also been about seeing or the healing energy even. I guess here you can follow different beliefs and systems, which I won’t go further into at the moment.
Although the system has been tried to be copied at times, it really won’t be copied. There is more than one reason, for someone called to the path it will be healing, training and all with the spirits of that person, and they know a great deal. Now, I was supposed to elaborate on the expressing part, but guess I more touched upon the realization that we are part of something bigger, that we are not alone and that there are solutions however big or small your problem seems to be.
