He was an uptown shaman, a very expensive shaman, and I really wanted to believe in the idea of a shaman. I had no shaman experience, but a lot of people I knew where seeing him, and I needed something, and I could afford him, so... . After doing some murmuring and feather fanning over my body, he told me : write down all the thoughts that belong to the past on a piece of paper, and on the next full moon, burn the paper. I liked that idea. Felt symbolic... I love symbols. . So I did it. That next full moon I happened to be in a hotel room. Hotel rooms are not ideal for shamanistic ceremonies of any sorts. But I shut down all my cynicism and tried to really give this my all and... . I ended up almost burning down my hotel room. . 😂😂😂 . After that I felt pretty dumb, and slightly mad at my shaman. . It turned out to be REALLY symbolic : symbolic of how shallow I was at going towards my quest for deeper meaning and healing. You can’t just blindly follow some rituals without considering - well, your physical environment, ahah, but also your intentions and belief system. You can’t just go buy spirituality and healing, and the latest trendy shaman. . I will make mistakes on my path forever, of course, but I have learned to use common sense and gut feeling. Wether it’s with books or healers, I am incredibly open, but I question everything. . I believe that if we’re connected to ourselves, we don’t really need healers of any sorts - even if good ones can be guides that show us the way. We know what to do, where to go, how to heal. We can create our own personal ceremonies. Share them with others. Most of the rest is entertainment - and I say that in the most respectful way : entertainment can be powerful, inspiring, life changing. We humans need it. . So last night, I flew to Europe with the full blue moon at my window and I spent a long time just looking at her and feeling her. Didn’t do anything else than that. It was grand. . Lol, no need to burn down hotel rooms. Everything we need, we already have. .」5月19日 21時22分
