Welcome to the Dragonfly Hearth Dragonfly is the essence of the winds of change, the messages of wisdom, enlightenment and the communications from the elemental world. This elemental world is made up of the tiny spirits of plants, and the elements air, earth, fire and water. It may be time to break down the illusions you have held that restrict your actions or ideas. Dragonfly medicine always beckons you to seek out the parts of your habits that you need to change, if you feel the need for change, call on Dragonfly to guide you through the mists of illusions to the pathway of transformation. Follow Dragonfly to the place inside your body where magic is still alive, and drink deeply of its power. This strength belongs to you. It is the power of becoming the illusion. This ability is ever changing and contains within it the knowledge that you are creating it all.

This practice will develop skills to use with clients. You will work extensively with your spirit guides and power animals through shamanic journeying. The healing skills will be practised by working on each other. Interspersed between learning the healing skills we will be developing our personal Shamanic skills and related practices. Your commitment Attendance at all weekends to maintain the energy of the group is essential. You will be required to do practical home work which will be discussed within the group at the following weekend. The acquisition of a shamanic drum will be an advantage; practise drums are available for use during the course. Bring a bandana and blanket for use when journeying.
