Shamanic Divination is a path to gaining direct knowledge. Direct knowledge can be defined as that which is experienced firsthand by the senses. Divination is not "fortune telling"; it is a way to a deeper understanding of events and influences
surrounding a situation or person. Divination seeks to find answers from sources that are hidden from daily life. They show us the "divine will" to answer
essential life questions. Shamanism is not a system of belief or faith, it is a system of knowledge, and Divination is one of the paths to gaining direct knowledge. In addition, the shaman seeks revelatory knowledge from visionary sources, which may be used for healing purposes. Changes, challenges, and questions fill our lives. How we respond to them can affect us for years to come.

In Spanish, the word Despacho literally means "dispatch or shipment." In the Andean traditions of Peru, a Despacho is a ceremonial offering to Pachamama (Mother Earth) and the Apus (Mountain Spirits). You could perhaps think of it as a focused, formal way to "dispatch" or "ship" your prayers off to the powers that be. Despachos also help align personal energies with the cosmic ones. The intention behind a Despacho ceremony can range from something as noble as world peace to something as down-to-earth as offering thanks for a bountiful harvest to something as personal as relief from joint pain. You could even include prayers for all three in one Despacho! Despachos can be done in groups, cities, and countries and can also be done for individuals. If you are interested in having a Despacho created, please contact Lori.
