Since my last
post, I have received several inquiries about the launching process that I
write about every month. I may have written about this process before,
but it bears repeating.
During my
shamanic training, we were taught how to track a deceased loved one, determine
if they were stuck somewhere, bring them back, release all of the heavy energy
that they took with them to the other side, and then “launch” them up to a
higher level where they could start to
plan to return for another lifetime.
Coincidentally, there is a class at the Monroe Institute called
“Lifeline” that teaches how to perform a similar service for the deceased.
When I started
teaching advanced shamanic healing techniques to practitioners in Europe and
the UK, I created the launching protocol that I have been using ever
since. It was based on the Shamanic Death
Rites. The goal for this was to use a shamanic
process and convert it into a spiritual one.
BTW—I still use the Death Rites on deceased loved ones of clients to
this day, and enjoy that process very much.
The goal of the
spiritual process that I created back then was to assist students in getting into
an altered state of consciousness and a higher vibrational state so that they
could leave their body behind and explore.
Those early
launchings in Europe and the UK were pretty simple until people got used to the
process. Basically, in small groups of 3
to 5 people, we would sit in a circle around the person being launched. The launchee and all participants would
expand their Core Essence until the launchee indicated that they were fully
expanded. The person who took the part
of the shaman would rattle in a certain way to detach the launchee’s luminous
energy field from their body. Then all
of the participants would scoop up that energy field and forcefully with their
hands, send it up and out as far as they could.
We would then sit quietly for a designated number of minutes, no more
than 6, while the launchee journeyed out into the cosmos. While we were waiting, the participants had
the opportunity to track where the launchee was going. Thus, this has always been a group endeavor
in all ways!
When the time
was up, the shaman would start rattling to bring the energy field of the
launchee back while everyone sitting around that person would rock and rub the
body to assist. The launchee
then shared their experience, and each of the others shared what they perceived
in turn.
The process later
evolved to having everyone have an intent for their journey. The sharing from the others afterwards quite often brought
back information for the launchee that was related to their intent.
In 2011, I
taught several rounds of a workshop designed to assist students in attaining altered
states of consciousness and in journeying. After
that, I started a local and in person launching group for non shamanic practitioners. That group had a variety of members and continued
to meet until I moved to Utah in 2019.
I thought that
my launching days were over at that point.
Then, at the end of 2020, a group of my former healership students
decided to start launching remotely, and invited me to join them. We have been meeting remotely once a month for a bit over
2 years now.
Here is the new
process. One of our members sends out a
Google Groups link, and we all log in at 10 AM Mountain Time on the last Sunday of each month. After chatting for a bit, we decide on the
order of the launching including who will be the shaman. This order rotates around so that everyone
has a turn at being the shaman, and also being launched. From there, the process is pretty much the
same. We all expand our Core Essence
along with the person who is launching, which creates a group higher
dimensional vessel. The shaman keeps the
time and brings the person back when her time is up. After the launchee shares her experience with
us, we then go around one by one and add to that according to what we
perceived.
The big
difference here is that we all live in different places, so the launchee does
not have anyone in the room to assist her.
The burden is on that person to expand as effectively as they can, stay
out in their journey without distraction, and bring themselves back without the
benefit of a team of people rocking her body to get her back in. So far, after a bit of practice, this remote
process has been working just fine.
What do we
experience when we are “out there”? It
all depends on the launchee’s intent and ability to keep pushing themselves
further and further out into the cosmos.
It’s different every time, which keeps things interesting. The information that comes back is always
informative and pertinent to not only the person who is launching, but to the
whole group.
Can a person
launch themselves without the benefit of being in a group? I don’t see why not, although that depends on
the person’s skill levels and ability to expand and get into an altered
state. If any of you try that, please
get in touch and tell me how that went for you.
You can also get your own group together to do this. I have written up all of the remote launchings
that we have done, so you can also go back in this blog to read about the kind
of information that I have received during my journeys. I have not written about the other group
member’s launches, as I do not write down their reports during our
session.
So there it is
in a nutshell. Of course, there is a bit
more to the process, but I have written about the basics here. If any of you have questions, I'd be happy to answer them. Remember that the more you practice, the better you will get at this.
