Shapeshifting
Celtic Shapeshifting
Most people think of shamans and shapeshifting only as a part of the cultures of North America, Africa, Siberia and Alaska. In the distant past, the Western European cultures also practiced this spiritual art.
Shapeshifting was well known there, especially among the Celtic cultures.
There are many Celtic legends about the power of shapeshifters. They are all written as if the person practicing it had physically became another creature. Physically speaking, this doesn’t happen. The shamanic talent is to assume certain characteristics, traits and talents of the creature for a limited time.
Shapeshifting was not soley practiced by Druids. Ordinary people who were seeking a spiritual path practiced shapeshifting as well. It was a Celtic form of spirituality that did not, and still does not, require one to become a Druid.
To name a few legends in Ireland, stories of the great warrior Cuchulain are full of references to shamanic powers. Nowhere does it say that he trained as a Druid. Finn Mac Cumhail, who was raised by two Druidess, never became a Druid. He was another Irishman with powers of a shaman.
There are many people today who practice shamanism and shapeshifting. Imagine seeing through the keen eyes of the hawk for insight that will transcends time and space. Merging your being with the ever-shifting flow of water and tapping a well of creativity you never knew you had. Hear the messages on the wind, its possible when you know how to listen.
