All I can say is the Eastern Hills of Kentucky. My wife and I take many, many trips throughout the year. We go everywhere. Some how I do not have notes from this trip. I do know it was Eastern Kentucky. I am thinking 2 and half years back so the time frame is right.. Shot with a 400D Cannon which I retired 8/9 months ago.

This was the center of a three image pan I was going to do but I like the image as is.

I am a shaman for over 40 years. I am an elder in my tribe. I have several under studies to date.

I have very little use of my hands. all Native Americans with age have arthritis. And I am full blood.

By the way a shaman is not a healer. A shaman is a spiritual leader, spiritual teacher. A healer is just that; a healer and may not be a shaman. Most likely is not.

Greek, Coptic or Egyptian, Spanish, Hebrew, Older Hebrew, Sanskrit, Polly, Italian, all language that have to do with spiritual writings. Bible, etc. A little Arabic.

Almost No native American. My own language is to hard to learn the write. No real alphabet. Speek a little.

well that's true of alot of native american dialects. i'm also part native american but 2 different tribes--cherokee and blackfoot, and that's on my mom's side of the family. what tribe do you belong to? and i know a shaman isn't just a healer, i've been studying for a long time about psychopharmacology, shamanism, occultism, ethnobotany and other related subjects. shamans are more than just healers: they're teachers and leaders as you say but also mediums, ministers, midwives, advisors, ect. i've been more into the south american side of shamanism, most notably the amazonian region since i have ancestral lineage from there on my father's side of the family (i guess since he's from central america--honduras--mesoamerican shamanism/spirituality is more accurate) but i do try to study the native american side of things. i would love nothing more than for you to be my mentor since as you might've guessed everything i learn is autodidactic. it doesn't hurt to gain insight from someone such as yourself sifu/shamaness/priestess. i am willing to learn everything you know and if you have any curiosity about cuanderos or any other spiritual leaders from different cultures that i might know about i don't mind educating you as well. i believe we can both learn from each other. so i assume kentucky has been your home all this time?
