Magical Shamam Art for Everyday inspiration

In the grind of day to day routines, financial stress, emotional ups and downs and the the general roller coaster of life, the magic which hides behind it all can sometimes get lost. When the Shamans dance they tune into the beating, turning and breathing of the World. Even seeing images of them can inspire us to dance loose from the shackles of our own habits and unhelpful patterns and joyfully dance towards our higher selves and aspirations.

Animals always feature in shamanic art. Jaguars stalking, Owls wide eyed like the moon in the night, horses running spirited and free. These animal portraits also help remind us of aspects of ourselves...how else can we describe the magnetic effect these images have on us?

The natural elements also play a big part in Shamanic imagery, we may not find the Wolf to walk with in this physical world of ours, but we can take time to feel the wind coming from a distance, tousling our hair as it reaches us and then watch it swirl the leaves as it continues on its path.

We might not see a might y eagle soaring the wind on a regular basis but wearing an eagle pendant can remind us of the eagles sharp eyes and mighty flight when we get caught up in your daily details. A simple postcard on the fridge can open up a new world! Images are powerful!

I have enjoyed putting together this lense and I will continue to work it as I come across inspiring artworks, books and jewelry.
