Calling the Spirits
(Tom Cowan)
1. Drumming for yourself, ask your power animals, guides, etc. to hover over your head with the most prominent on the crown.
2. Call the spirits of your mother and father to sit on each shoulder—this is to call in the ancestors.
3. In your heart and stomach call family and friends. Think of them as you drum.
4. Call in your enemies beneath you (underneath) or people you are in conflict with.
5. Around you is the spirit world—the forest—think of your nemeton.
6. Call in the directions, the seasons, the elements, the whole universe. Pull them into you.
Use the above technique for protection prior to journeying.
Can also use to empower healing tools:
Put this power into your branch and stones.
Can then use branch/stones in healing saying—
“Power of ____I have over you” (speaking to the disease).
Example: Power of the earth I have over you.
