Second Inipi Sweat Lodge

This was after my healing with the Shaman and I still could not bring myself to take part in the ceremony, but there again this could be that I now felt I no longer needed it to be honest. The Shaman just asked me if I would help with both the women’s and the men’s ceremonies and did not ask if I would be taking part as if he knew the reasons anyway. His eyes tend to be reading you in some way. So I helped with the blankets and the door for both. It was quite amusing listening to the sounds that were coming from inside with the men.

He also asked me to blow the incense on the women and men as they entered. I felt like I was chosen.

However, this ceremony was very intense and as I was at the door side of the Shaman (where he asked me to stand) I could feel energy being released each time the door blankets were thrown back. Even the Shaman said that the stones were very powerful that day. At one point the vibes nearly knocked me over, but it was the good stuff and you got the feeling that the tribe inside were glowing with good and all was well.
