Our ideas about sex, sexuality, and gender primarily come from our culture's influences. Shamanic teacher, John Moore, explores the patriarchal views about sex and spirituality. From a shamanic perspective, ethical sexual practices are a powerful tool for mind, body and spirit healing. Shamans around the world are part of their cultures, but when exploring sex in the spiritual realm - traditional viewpoints giving control over ourselves to unseen authority starts to break down. A shaman is always concerned with power - not power over others, but the power to heal, gain information, and to protect others. Merging spirituality with sex is a way to explore incredible power.
