Prices start at $75 (free shipping in US). DM or Shop my shop: Talking Stick/Smudge Fan with Deer Medicine https://etsy.me/3cRdoQm #deermedicine #talkingsticks #ceremonialtoolswithsoul #sacredceremony #ShamanRitial How to use: Talking Sticks have been used for centuries by Native Americans all across the country. These decorated sticks were used during meetings or storytelling to identify the speaker. Whoever held the talking stick was the only person who could speak at that time, while all others present had to listen silently and respectfully, eyes cast downward so 'listening' became to focus. When one person was finished speaking, they would pass the stick on, so everyone would have a chance to speak, but one at a time. This ensured that everyone’s point of view was heard and considered. What a beautiful way to communicate with loved ones. Can also be used in clearing ceremonies. Measures approximately 12 inches long. Deer Medicine reminds you to move through life and obstacles with grace, to be in touch with your inner child. Deer medicine gives you the ability to change directions quickly. Deer Spirit is gentle. Increases instincts and intuition. When you work with bones, feathers, fur, shells and wood you connect in a deeply spiritual way.
