So if you do so happen to heal someone or read someone does it make you sick? just a basic blunt question.

[puridalan]

It is not suppose to make you sick, though if you do not properly shield/ground and prepare yourself yes you can get sick. So best thing to do is properly prepare and use a higher power rather than your own energy.

A shaman heals through learning from spirits, sometimes working a deal with them.

Example. A shaman might make a deal with a spirit of a virus, to back down off a child in exchange for infecting himself. The spirit dulls it's attack on the child, in exchange for a more mature body to infect. Or a group of adults might choose to take on the illness. The virus gets a chance to spread the child is spared. It's a trade..... an economy of sorts. It dosnt always work that way, but the shaman is constantly makeing friends with different spirits.

Sometimes it is more complicated than that.

Example. The spirit of the virus wants an oportunity to be introduced to say k9s. For a chance at a mutation that can propel it's species. To get the spirit to back off the child the shaman may infect himself, then cut himself to bleed on a piece if meat, then track and pattern a cyote and leave it in it's hunting area. But the shaman knows that the cyote spirit has to be consulted first. He might broker a deal between the cyote and the virus or he might end up haveing to do something else for the cyote.

There is always balance and negotiation. If the shaman follows through with his obligations he gains spirits as friends at which the spirits will help him without anything else needed out of friendship and respect. But until these relationships are made the shaman does take a lot on.

Also a good shaman also takes every opertunity to help nature and people, because the spiritual curancy gained ( medacine ) allows him to help his subjects.

This is why you see so many shamans doing so many things that seem nuts. They don't even try to explaine it is byond most people, especially if you can't travel in the spirit world.

[White Crane Feather]

Now there are long standing agreements between certain spirits and certain plants. Shaman have learned these, then passed it down tk modern medacine.

Where do you think asprin comes from? salilic acid from willow trees. ( it's synthisised now) Long understood by shaman to lower fevors and reduce Pain. It's a key compnant in almost any herbal remedy.

Modern scholars think they discovered it on acident. Possibly in the form of a synctronistc event ( spirit control over physical reality) like penecillan, but more than likely they learned it during shamanic journies.

Sorry said to much again...,,

Basically besides grounding and protecting yourself as you get the energy from above you enter it into the person as needed and you draw out the bad energy but you need to make sure you have a place for it to go or it will bounce back into you. Normally you would view it entering into the ground or coming out of the person as beautiful harmless butterflies that move off. As long as you make sure you send the pain or illness to a safe place you will be fine.
