Guest guest Posted July 1, 2007 Report Share Posted July 1, 2007 Well, I did it :-) I went to my first Shaman Sweat Lodge. I only had a vague idea of what it would be like, and it ended up to be a very interesting experience. The lodge was much smaller than I expected, it looked like an Igloo made of wood. I was asked to crawl in and bless the lodge and welcome the ancestors with my white sage insense. To my surprise I discovered a half dozen daddy long leg spiders,yicks !!, I chased them out with the sage ;-) The sweat was suppose to last 90 minutes but it ended up more than 3 hours long :-P I didn't think a human being had that much water in them! When entering the lodge, I could feel my tongue and throat area vibrate, I made sure my tongue stayed on the soft palet, I was very excited and intriqued by all the experiences I was having. I will say my first chakra (sexual energy?) was roaring. It was a very intense vibration all area my base. I focused on moving the energy up the spine by clenching feminine muscles/or kegel exercises. This sensation was experienced through all 4 rounds of the sweat. It was, to say the least, very blissful and powerful. During the entire sweat, I was rocking/swaying involuntary, as if something was moving me around. It was difficult to remain still. The only vision I had inside the black light was an image of an eye, it appeared to be a feminine eye. I must say, wow, it was damn hot in there, but I absolutely loved the challenge of the intense heat. The herbs used inside were glorious and intoxicating. One herb was Lavender that was incredible! I may be participating in the sweat from now on, once a month if I can. If anything, its a great workout! Blessings Lisa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
