Way of the Wild Soul Shamanka
with Anna-Saqqara Price and Louisa Shorney
Begins 18th, 19th, 20th October 2025
On the first Spiral of this three spiral training we’ll spend a series of seven weekends over nine months dropping into our wild soul essence, connecting with our souls, each other, the elements and Goddess archetypes.
We will explore the Avalonian and ancient sacred landscapes of our Brythonic Proto-Celtic Ancestors. We’ll visit sacred sites to drum, journey and honour the land and connect with our ancestors. We’ll connect with our wild soul ancestors and discover who is stepping forward to be your guides and power creatures.
We’ll explore, embrace and develop the gifts and skills of the Wild Shapeshifter during this first spiral. We’ll examine the blocks that stop you and discover your shadow powers. We’ll learn basic core shamanic skills and ceremonially make shamanic tools and regalia. We’ll experience ceremonies and equine-facilitated soul exercises to help clear and empower you ready to step forward on this path of self-discovery, as you dedicate and rebirth as your Wild Shapeshifter self for your personal development and growth.
Course Information
Some level of mobility is required to be able to access sacred sites in Her landscape. If you have mobility issues yet are still feeling the pull of your soul to join us, please contact us to discuss how we can best support you. There is a ramp to access the Brighde room on the ground floor of Goddess House.
All genders are welcome to join us on this Goddess-centred course; the sacred land of the Earth Mother is seen as feminine so the pronoun Her is used for this. For Wild Soul Shamanka and Shaman both titles will generally be used. For describing your Wild Shapeshifter aspects, s/he/they are generally used.
As we’re currently reclaiming our Proto-Celtic indigenous culture we are using the common title Shamanka and Shaman to describe these ancient ancestors, with deep respect and reverence to the native Siberian traditional culture that this term was coined to describe.
We welcome students joining us from further away in the UK or abroad. For our Blended Learning Course option and dates please click here.
