At least it made us sound like we are really excited about the conversation we are having!

The Wisdom of the Animals and Global Warming Guest Speaker Rose De Dan Tuesday, September 16, 2008 at 11 am Pacific 7th Wave Network Join Dr. Liana Carbon, Institute of Shamanic Wisdom, as she interviews Rose De Dan, author of the acclaimed book reikishamanic.com%2Ftailsofahealeranimals1reikishamanism1&token=F4F864BEA2A5B219E0EEF41B150D08561899EDC6" target="_blank">Tails of a Healer: Animals, reiki and Shamanism. Rose is the founder of Wild reiki and Shamanic Healing LLC. A gifted animal communicator, reiki Master Teacher, and artist, Rose was invited to work with the animals of the Philadelphia Zoo by the animals themselves, as well as with animals at other major zoos in the USA. She is currently involved in speaking on how global warming is affecting all animals, as well as shamanic approaches to working with the animals and Mother Earth, and has a new book in progress. Rose is actively involved in how we can energetically work toward changing the current trajectory of global warming. Relying only on technology we cannot reverse the trend in time before many species perish. There is a chasm between the old ways (shamanism) and the science of today, we must bridge that gap and reincorporate a shamanic way of being in this world in order to heal what has been torn asunder. In practice since 1996 and in partnership with her companion animals, Rose offers private sessions and ceremonies for humans and animals, and teaches reiki classes and shamanism workshops in Seattle.

Attending this sort of event is not my usual style, however I went for three major reasons. First, I went as a member of the Alki Wildlife Habitat Project (AWHP), and unofficial photographer. Our hard-working leader, Dolly Vinal, was presenting a certificate of certification of Jack Block Park as a Backyard Wildlife Habitat from the National Wildlife Federation along with a sign for display to the public. Our group has been working on community certification of Alki for five years. We will finally achieve that goal this year; certification of Jack Block Park fits into our future vision of certifying all of the West Seattle peninsula and the Duwamish area specifically. Second, I went as a shaman. My recent experiences conducting the monthly public Peruvian shamanic reikishamanic.com&token=1179EC9A619436B5780B051AC969E725781E0703" target="_blank">despacho ceremonies have raised my awareness of the need for me to begin seriously applying everything I have learned about shamanism toward the goal of reversing global warming and reconnecting people, animals and the natural world. Sometimes that role takes the form of simply showing up with the intention of being available to Spirit and seeing what happens. Third, I went because I love Jack Block Park, and any excuse to hang out by Puget Sound and watch the marine wildlife is good. Jack Block Park is perhaps one of the least well-known of the Seattle parks, even in Alki. Located on 15 acres next to Saltys Restaurant on Harbor Avenue, Jack Block Park contains a walking path, 45 foot high observation tower, a walking pier, and a kicking view of the Seattle skyline and Mt. Rainier (on a good day). And something else few know about, a breeding colony of Purple Martins. Reader Reviews I was delighted to find that "Tails of a Healer" is even more than I was expecting based on the outside cover, which in itself made obvious that the book was something I'd not only enjoy but also learn from. It works on several levels: Most obviously, it's a fascinating linear biographical account of a most interesting woman who's had some even more interesting (to say the least!) experiences, most with animals as the "cat"alyst. That said, each short chapter stands alone brilliantly, and you can flip through the book at random to find inspirational material for your meditation practice (for that matter, you'll be inspired even if you don't meditate). Through Rose's eyes, I feel like I have a better sense than ever about the inner lives of our critter friends. Finally, time and time again, it's an uplifting and refreshing look at the timeless cycles of birth and death. The writing is self-aware but not self-absorbed, wry and engaging while unflinchingly direct, and always grounded in wisdom and compassion. Whether or not you've had experiences parallel to De Dan's (and few people have), you'll find the lessons she's learned from hers useful as you continue on your own journey through this wild ride called life.
