Shamanism in relation to Therianthropy

What is Shamanism? Shamanism is a spiritual belief that does not categorize as a religion. Some people who practice shamanism do in fact have a religion that they have faith in. There are many different branches of shamanism but the main ones are to be able to see into the different realms, healing, inner knowledge, and traveling to sacred sites. Some of the most common types of practiced type of shamanism is working with ether tools which help with the communication of spirits, totems, or some form of animal.

There are many different areas which “shamanism” originates. It shows that there are many similar beliefs all around the world, that are not all the same but similar enough that you can tell that the originators are onto something. Shamanism also shows that animals and humans are not so different. That we all have different things such as souls, spirits, and different energy forms. Which can be used in similar ways to therianthropy. Did you know that shamans from all over the world have different forms of shapeshifting.

Therianthropy is about the animal or non human you identify with. We all are of our own mind, as in we are all unique. Shamanism is the connection of man and nature. To do this Shamans can use different tools such as chant, rattles, music, dance, signs from nature, and crystals which are all used to do there energy work. This can be used for introspection or journeys. Most shamanistic beliefs are animism in nature as in that everything in nature has a spirit or is alive in some way, shape, or form.

Shamanism in relation to therianthropy and shapeshifting is helpful. As therianthropy is similar to shamanism in that it is about self reflection, and it is about who you are as a person. It can further your goals in therianthropy because of meditation, journeying, and energy work. It can also help with all other areas because it can change your world view. You would start to see into the other dimensions. Which can help with astral projection which is a possible precursor to a shift called the astral shift.

Meditation will help because of concentration, imagination, and will help with your mental shifting, Phantom shifting, and physical shifting. Meditation will also help with your connection to your own mind. When you have a connection it helps with all areas of therianthropy, energy working, astral travel, and many different things throughout life.

Astral travel can be considered a type of journeying and is a form of dimension travel. Also some people think that one way to physically shift is to astral shift then while holding your desired form (your theriotype in this instance) to enter back into your body with the expectation of physical shifting. (A thing to keep in mind is that if you are not so good at mental shifting is not to do this. Who knows what could happen if you physical shift but are not used to the mindset.)
