The Drum or Spirit Horse
The drum is one of the most important tools a Shaman can have. It has a multitude of uses. It can cleanse a space or
person of dense and inappropriate energy. It can be used as a diagnostic tool when treating someone. It can beat a
rhythm for a ceremony. It can mirror the heart beat of Mother Earth to aid in Her healing. It is known as a Spirit Horse as it
can take the practitoner on a journey to the Spirit World to gather information.

The Rattle
...has many uses for the Shamanic Practitioner. It can welcome the Spirits
when creating Sacred Space; be used to aid diagnosis when treating.
When it is inappropriate to use smudging herbs (eg if someone has an
allergy, or indoors if smoke alarms are present, a rattle is invaluable). It is
small and easily transported. It serves to unwind chakras for healing and to
dislodge toxic energy in the aura.

Crystals
Crystals are an immense subject in their own right. Many books have been written about them and
their uses. One of the most accessible and easy to use is Judy Hall's Crystal Bible. We use Crystals
in divination (balls and crystal pendulums). In healing and Chakra balancing. In space clearing and
maintenance. In Spiritual parasite removal. In journeying -sounding crystal bowls. For protection and
communication; and just to enjoy their beauty and resonance.

Pendulums
The dictionary definition of a Pendulum is: a body suspended from a fixed point so as to swing freely to
and fro. Using it as a Shamanic tool we tap into the energy of the object attached, sometimes a crystal,
possibly a simple stone or piece of wood-occasionally metal or bone. It can be used to answer simple
yes or no questions by seeing which direction it moves, in response to those queries. Pendulums can
also be used for unwinding chakras during healing processes.

Feather
The feather has a variety of uses. They can be used to open chakras and brush down auras. In conjunction
with smudging herbs, they can cleanse auras and environments. In healing and ceremony they invoke the
energy of the particular bird from which they originate (eg, a Swan feather for transformative processes,
Crow & Raven feathers for Magic / Mysteries, Eagle feathers to take prayers to Heaven.)

Smudging Kit
The smudging kit....In smudging, a sea shell is used to contain the
herbs - in the Native American tradition this is usually an abalone shell
(at left). The herbs are lit and then whafted by use of a feather. This
symbolises all of the elements - the shell for Water, the herbs for Earth,
the feather for Air and of course the fire to light the herbs.
