Journey to Find a Power Song and Pouch

January 10, 2015June 7, 2019 by Sky Bray, posted in Spirit

This is a school assignment - my first final. The journey is to Midgard, to ask for a 'galdrar' or magical song, and our medicine pouch (pungr) - what it looks like and what should go in it. Also we are to locate our first tools - a staff, precious stones, tin buttons and a … Continue reading Journey to Find a Power Song and Pouch

First Journey to Midgard - SpiritMAMA

First Journey to Midgard

December 18, 2014January 8, 2020 by Sky Bray, posted in Spirit

  To prepare for the journey I took a shower and then laid out my mesa/altar. I used singing to go onto trance. It was laborious. I carried with me my yew staff and a rock from my mesa to ground me. I went out my front door and down the path to my garden … Continue reading First Journey to Midgard

I Am An Animist - SpiritMAMA

The Earth is in Our Bones

December 1, 2014June 7, 2019 by Sky Bray, posted in Spirit

I grew up in a small town situated on an extinct volcano - up in the hills of it, surrounded by more mountains and forests. My mom was a hippy and a ski-bum. I learned to ski as a toddler and lost my two front teeth on the face of Red Mountain, BC. In my … Continue reading The Earth is in Our Bones

Trance with Song - SpiritMAMA

Trance with Song

October 18, 2014June 7, 2019 by Sky Bray, posted in Spirit

  At the school we are asked to practice going into trance every week on Freyja's day - which is Friday. This is my first experience with crossing worlds via singing, instead of drumming or rattling. Amazing to be working on this, considering all the trouble I have had with singing this past year - … Continue reading Trance with Song

Letting Go and Listening In - SpiritMAMA

Letting Go and Listening In

July 20, 2014June 7, 2019 by Sky Bray, posted in Spirit

I feel no presence in my life, of spirit. I see nothing. But I hear things. Things that I feel in my heart at that moment, I am supposed to hear. Someone is trying to reach me. Sometimes I hear a voice in my head that stands out from the usual chatter - but this … Continue reading Letting Go and Listening In

My Song - SpiritMAMA

My Song

February 24, 2014June 7, 2019 by Sky Bray, posted in Spirit

I'm a singer - and I always have been. All my life I have sung out loud without any thought of being shy or afraid. My earliest singing memory is about 5, when I was walking home from kindergarten singing Somewhere over the Rainbow at the top of my lungs. I came by it naturally - … Continue reading My Song

Journey to the Underworld - SpiritMAMA

Journey to the Underworld

February 13, 2014January 8, 2020 by Sky Bray, posted in Spirit

In the West (last summer) we were guided to meet with Huaskar (Huascar, Waskar), the Peruvian keeper of the Underworld. We were directed to give him a gift and then ask a question. He would give us an answer and a gift back. Because it was a guided journey, or because it was my first … Continue reading Journey to the Underworld
