This is The Ancestral Medicine Women and we would like to welcome everybody to the year twenty, twenty one. The year of 2020 has been significant and an interesting year for everybody on this planet.

(lighted edited transcript) Welcome this is Mother Sha-Riah and we would like to talk of something quite momentous actually, but also quite a small thing, and this is the idea of a ‘Dual State’. We have found that the Dual State often occurs when people are journeying and sometimes even when people are meditating. To begin our understanding of...
A friend said the other day that they woke up to the news on TV saying that America had fallen. Around us we see human rights are being fought for, but in the doing so we seem to be losing other rights. Everywhere the media is spreading fear, that there is not enough of this or that. In Australia, our news announced we could fall off the economic...

So welcome. In our last circle, we looked at this idea of peace, but not just this peace where there is a calmness within and there is this beautiful feeling of bliss and ‘harmony’, but actually there is this idea where peace with brought within or created within and it actually expands. So in this space of this peace, there is this energy...
It’s an energy. It’s not wisdom from the pulpit or a soapbox. It’s not a position of power. It’s an energy. People come and talk with you or near you. You’re not in a rush. You can hear the story out. You can see the drama or issue at hand. You notice there is less for you to do and in this time you have the ability...
From last Sunday’s Circle. * * * Welcome this is Mother Sha-Riah. Every week now we are having on-line Medicine Circle and we choose a different theme or concept or energy, perhaps is the better word to journey on in an effort to create an energy force, if you like, of a positive energy force or a supportive energy force that can be sent out...
Welcome, this is Mother Sha-Riah As some of you know we are having our Circle almost weekly now as we are so distant from each other.

Each time that we do have our circle we are...

To live in lockdown conditions for extended periods can affect the human.

“I had understood something: The own way is for everyone the right one. Any deviation from it alienates him from himself, from his satisfaction, his strength and his deepest bliss. Basically one has no choice as following their own path, even if one thinks that one might, should or has to deviate from it. Maybe one thinks that another way...
(transcription) When we say this welcome, it is from The Ancestral Medicine Women and many blessings to you. There are two things for us that are really important for the healing journey. One of them is the Processing and the Processing Time and the Space, which we have discussed previously. The other thing is the Crisis. What we have found...
And you say under you breath, “Oh, but I’m nothing.” We say you do not know the enormity of who you are. Everyone is unique, stop looking to others for what might be inside. Stop looking for others, or outside, to validate your work. Validate from inside. Your gifts are so unique and delicate, no one can tell you what they are...
(Transcription) “It’s interesting when people ask that question because they assume that it is something that can be given to them, something that is outside of them, something that will appear before them, but the purpose of the human life, you could even say a human doesn’t have a purpose because existence itself, existence in the human...

From our Empathic Path Series —————————- As I walked home today I met an angel. We didn’t stop to talk, it just fell in step beside me and walked along with me. I don’t know how I knew that it was an angel, I just did. I felt my stride lengthen and my step lighten. I felt my insides...
Dear Seekers, What a gift to be able to commune with you all in this way, thank you. We would like to talk to you about weather, what weather means symbolically for the shaman, how to read its meaning into the larger picture of life, and what weather can tell us about humans’ energetic relationship to the planet. We will be talking about...
Looking out into the universe I see myself looking back; I am the universe, and the universe is me. In this way, I am enormous and tiny at the same time; My place and purpose in the universe is, then, both enormous and tiny. I am a contradiction, just as the universe is; Life, death, light, and dark, define us both. Today, on this new dawn, I...

The Crone Zone Exercising is nourishing and necessary for the body. It is the same, as reading a book to expand the mind, or having a good belly laugh with friends to satisfy emotional well being, or meditating to quieten and uplift the soul. This is no more apparent than in the time of the crone (except, perhaps for children in regards to their...

When humans can get over their obsession with abundance, they will be able to get on with their existence and the myraid of existences in each life. Then we hear, “oh but Mothers, my need for abundance is all about more love, more joy, friends, experiences, flow,.. yadaya…” Then we notice when the money stops, everything comes to...

If you are getting thoughts in the present from things that have gone on in the past (not just in your past but the past in general), perhaps you are thinking that all you want is to live a simpler life, or you want to go back to a time where there was this idea that you got up with the sun, you went to bed with the sun, and you worked in the...
Whether you’re asking a tree, your whole collective garden or the elementals around you… it does not matter, if the message you get back from your question is unlike anything you normally think like, you’ll know it’s not your own inner voice, it’s nature. Nature is straight talking. An example: You’re working in...

Your Life as a Maze ————————— Life can be like a maze. We follow a path only to come to a dead-end, discovering, perhaps, that it was not our path at all, and have to now look for another path. Or, we may come to an obstacle in our life-maze, and we have to stop and work out the best possible...
