Full Moon Ritual: A Shamanic Fire Ceremony

  • Be The Light Shamanic Healing Madison, WI, 53704 United States (map)

What is the purpose of a shamanic fire ceremony?

The fire is a cleansing, transformational and powerful tool. When we work with intention, the fire helps us to change and shift our lives in the ways we desire. Fire ceremonies have remained a core practice amongst many traditional cultures for tens of thousands of years.

What can I expect from this gathering?

This evening is about creating (and nurturing) community with like-minded people.

The full moon is about letting go of the things that no longer serve us- outdated thoughts, emotions, patterns, relationships, and perhaps even a career or job that no longer serves you. This can include internal and external shifts. The full moon is a powerful ally in helping us manifest change.

Format of the evening

We’ll spend a bit of time getting to know each other. I will then explain the structure of the ceremony and provide guidance for setting an intention for the ceremony. You’ll have a few minutes of silence to form your intention and do some journaling if you wish.

We will begin the ceremony.

Once the ceremony is complete, we will take some time to journal and share our experiences (for those who feel comfortable doing so).

Towards the end of our time together, there will be time to mingle.

What will the ceremony be like?

This ceremony is a shamanic ceremony practiced by the Q’ero shamans of Peru, and has been handed down to me as part of my training in this lineage. We will connect with the power of the fire by singing a beautiful, yet simple chant. Remember that everyone is focused on doing their personal work, and no one is listening to you sing- so don’t be shy or deterred!

The ceremony is simple, and I will discreetly remind the group of the steps as we move through it. There is no need to worry about remembering a complicated sequence or “messing up”.
