Last evening, just before dusk, I looked out the family room window to see two great horned owls dancing on the ground at the palm tree by the lake. Owls rarely come down out of the trees to such a vulnerable place.
What does the Owl dance mean?
How would you work with the Owl's message?
I am teaching a Power Animal TeleClass for my friend Anne Marie Bennett next Sunday, August 16th and I wanted to invite my readers to the session.
There are two main types of helping allies that shamans consult and work with in their journeys: power animals, also known as guardian spirits, and teachers in human form. In this teleclass we'll explore SoulCollage® and the relationship of power animals beyond the body chakras.
In building relationship with our helping allies we come to know our true essence; from this place of power we feel more connected and grounded, better able to move out into the world in service to our family and community. During the teleclass we'll explore Nature, power animals and the SoulCollage® process. Michele will talk about power loss, power animals and the soul retrieval process using your SoulCollage® cards.
Attend this Power Animal tele-class and you have a chance to win a copy of Sandra Ingerman’s book Shamanic Journeying: A Beginner's Guide, from Sounds True. The book includes a drumming CD for shamanic journeying.
This class is for both the curious and seasoned SoulCollagers alike. If you have any animal companion cards in your SoulCollage® Deck, please bring them with you to the call, along with a journal/paper and a pen.
Rev. Michele Lessirard, C.Ht. is a shamanic teacher/practitioner and SoulCollage® Facilitator providing healing, counseling and instruction since 1993.

Michele, thank you for today’s KaleidoSoul teleclass! My experience during your guided piece was not a direct contact type one, but something more in the feeling realm – I look forward to seeing how this deepens and , as you said, “learns” me in the next few days…
Hi Michelle, I want to thank you for facilitating the KaleidoSoul teleclass today. It came at a very important time for me, personally; and I received some much needed healing through listening and participating in this session.
I am brand new to Soul Collage, just learned about the process & joined KaleidoSoul in the past week. But I have been working with and studying shamanism for about 9 years now. I found your perspective very, very helpful. My plan is to eventually incorporate Soul Collage into my shamanic practice. But first, I want to use the process for my own healing and growth. Once I am comfortable and familiar with soul collage I would love to take the facilitator training.
Currently, I am in the midst of a life altering move that has come about very unexpectedly. While, I want to take this move and have been working with my husband to make it a reality; it has caused a lot of stress and soul/power loss in my life. Sitting there today, listening to your words, I began to cry and realized that I have been in dire need of a power animal retrieval for the loss. Or at least an oppourtunity to reconnect myself with my spiritual reality.
So, while I didn’t need to find my power animal; I did use your short, 5 minutes journey time to reconnect with and heal my connection to my main power animals and my other animal helpers.
Thank you so much for this gift of healing. I realized during the journey that the more I take steps to empower myself the more power I will retrieve. I had thought I was doing some small things to keep spiritually connected. But as often happens when we are in the midst of a situation, I was not able to see or give myself the help I needed. Your words at the end of the session say it all.
“Don’t limit the power of the universe, we need to be willing to step outside the box.”
May you always step surely on the spiral path and
Walk in light,
Pat
