Jungle Svonni I was concieved on the mountain of Gaivarri north of the arctic circle in Sapmi where the border between Norway and Sweden runs over the top of the mountain. My first memory in life was that I knew my destiny was to become a Shaman, like many of my anscestors in my lineage before me. My grandfather was one of the last traditional healers and when he died when I was twelve years old, I was faced with a problem.There where no one left around to teach me. So in my mid twentys I went to the last place on earth that I ever wanted to go, the Amazon. There I spent 7 years learning from the natives my own culture, that of no one still living in the north today could remember. There I met my ancestors and became a Shaman, the Sami way.
Robin Youngblood "I believe that the only way to co-create harmony and build strong, healthy communities in these times, is to re-educate ourselves in the natural rhythms of our Earth Mother through ritual and ceremony. We are all connected through the Web of Creation, and we must all weave a new world together. It is my hope to share what I have been taught in ways that will help each of us to remember our innate connection to each other, Mother Earth, and All That Is."
