WHAT IS HEBREW SHAMANISM?
Miriam Katz discusses Hebrew Shamanism with D'vorah Grenn of The Lilith Institute
Hebrew Shamanism is an art that was hidden in plain view.
It was not overtly named in the ancient texts as shamanism.
Nevertheless, shamanic threads have been woven throughout the legacy of the ancient Hebrews
and the indigenous cultures of the ancient Near East.
Shamanic teachers and their tools have left a legacy that can be recognized in mystical, earth-based practices
of the ancient Hebrews, Kabbalists and modern Jewish people, descendants of the tribe of Judah.
Shamanism itself is a toolkit for personal and universal evolution that is handed down from student to teacher, and often directly through spirit. Hebrew Shamanism was birthed out of a collaborative relationship with exalted ancestors such as Miriam the Prophet and King Solomon, who have been teachers, guides and mentors.
We work in co-creative partnership with the Divine, primarily as Goddess/Shekhinah
and shamanic teachers among the ancient Hebrews.
It is our work to help you to establish direct contact with their spirits and teachings
so that each one among us may cultivate direct access to shamanic power.
