**Thanksgiving Dreamcatcher Ceremony**
Hosted by Nate Long “Owl”
## We will be making a large dreamcatcher with a “human hoop” as a part of this journey! This is a process of creating a sacred object, sometimes physical sometimes imaginative, that is based upon the inspirations gained from our intentions while on a Shamanic journey — this can then be spiritually gifted to others in your life.
A Catcher woven between us
Connects us all
We give our Gratitude and Unconditional Love to all things
Letting us hold the space of every one and every thing
Letting us for a brief moment feel how it is
To have influence on an entire Universe
—
“We give you our unconditional love, do you accept?” … No
“We give you our unconditional love, do you accept?” … No
“We give you our unconditional love, do you accept?”
YES!!!!! … and I give you all my Gratitude.

A prayer is a communication with something larger and more mysterious. It is a request for assistance or a way of celebrating and giving thanks to something.
True Prayer is done with purposeful and focused intent; with sacred conviction, adoration and extreme respect.
Prayer, at the very root of its practice, is purely Shamanic.

Nate “Owl” Long is an artist and shamanic practitioner that focuses on using the creative process, ritual and a high level of focused prayer to bring something better to others and to this world as a whole.

This Circle is for anyone interested in shamanic practice. Shamanism is not a religion or a dogma. It is not dependent on any particular organizational structure or belief system, but is a practical world view based on ancient understanding of the relationships between humans and nature or Spirit. The shamanic perspective on life and living is extremely relevant to the challenges and concerns of our modern world and ordinary life experiences, and is compatible with all religious and spiritual beliefs.
We would also like to offer some resources that should be helpful to you. Please do take advantage of them when you need to. They are free to download here: [http://bit.ly/spi_resources](http://bit.ly/spi_resources).
Also, be sure to [join the email list](http://bit.ly/sca-email) in order to be informed of other news and opportunities, as well as the SCA Website at [www.ShamanicCommunityAustin.com](http://www.ShamanicCommunityAustin.com).
We hope that you are doing well. Please remember to rest and take care of yourself, and to be kind to others.
All the best. Be safe and well!
