THE GREAT AWAKENING BEGINS WITH EACH ONE OF US
The Gathering At The Cosmic Fire 2024 Summit is a celebration of remembering and acknowledging the Source of Our Awakening. There is a depth, beauty, and richness to the wisdom teachings and stories of the earth-based traditions of the world, that awakens something deep within those who have the good fortune to hear them.
Once we have been exposed to this wisdom we are never the same. We have tapped into a universal knowing that cannot be forgotten. A universal language that allows us to communicate with the Source of everything, our earth, and the cosmos.
Together we are embarking on an amazing adventure.
Whether you were born into a community where you were nurtured by earth-based wisdom for your entire life, you were blessed to find a shamanic earth-based healer or teacher through your travels, a book or a course, or you have found yourself here on the threshold of something new, each one of us has been gifted an opportunity to awaken more deeply in every moment, and to be of sacred service.
Awakening is not in seeking or resistance. The world is full of magical things patiently waiting for our senses to grow stronger.
PEOPLE ACROSS THE WORLD ARE INCREASINGLY LONGING TO HEAL THEIR HEARTS AND SOULS
Our human family is ready for change. The timing could not be better for shamanic earth-based wisdom to be revitalized and shared on a global scale. At Shamans Directory we are dedicated to ensuring that the origins, the medicine people, and the communities who have preserved these traditions for thousands of years are recognized, honored and illuminated. Their inherent and valuable guidance is allowing us all to awaken. It is through their generosity that we are being given the courage and the opportunity to choose a better, kinder, more sustainable way forward.
Hear from 40+ honoured shamanic earth-base healers, teachers, and wisdom keepers from around the world.
Our speakers are people whose lives have been transformed by Indigenous wisdom; so much so that they have dedicated their lives to preserving and protecting the communites and the traditions of world’s living lineages for our and future generations. You will hear the teachings and traditions that are most important to them, each with their own unique beauty, and learn why their wisdom and medicine ways may be our most valuable natural resource.
Seeing ourselves within these timeless stories of awakening we heal the world, one person at a time.

KIVA The Call of the Wisdom Keepers
remember and awaken to YOUR OWN UNIQUE PATH OF SACRED SERVICE
As human beings, we have the free will to answer the call and to be carved and shaped by the hands of Spirit. If we choose to embark on this journey, we must do our inner work, addressing the light and the darkness, and paying attention to the synchronicities, as they are messages to guide our way. This offers us both the opportunity to self-realize, and the challenge to step into the unknown ever day, never knowing what the Spirits may ask of us and whether we will be able to fulfill on it. The gift of saying ‘yes’ is the ability to be of best service to one another, our families, and our communities.
Each one of us said ‘yes’ to offering a gift to the world while we are here. Together, we find the courage to unwrap them!
Opening to the lineages that have been steadfastly stewarded throughout time we are able to receive the boundless wisdom and experience of our ancestors. By nurturing the gifts of the roots of earth-based wisdom that live within each one of us, we remember who we are, and are able to walk a path of authenticity in the world.
Listen to the wisdom that guides an authentic and Spirit-led life.
As a species we have lost touch with our gentleness and our humanness
While it is encouraging to see shamanic earth-based wisdom gaining in popularity, this unfortunately does not often translate into an awareness of the origins, the medicine peoples and the communities, who have preserved these traditions for thousands of years. If we are committed to healing, we must also be conscientious, honoring and acknowledging the treasures of these precious living resources.
Each one of us has a teacher within. Acknowledging our lineage-based teachers, and how their wisdom has allowed us to meet ourelves more deeply, invites the world to learn from them.
The richness, intention, and beauty of shamanic earth-based wisdom has been cultivated since the beginning of human history. There is no fast food version and we must be careful to ensure that we are not packaging and selling it in this way.
Ultimately, these teachings may guide us back to living in balance and harmony with the Earth instead of blindly and unconsciously consuming Her. This is about creating a safe and respectful global environment where original traditions and teachings are honored, preserved, and practiced within an ecosystem that sustains Indigenous lineages without unconscious misappropriation.
Receiving the gifts of the world’s living lineages inspires us to retrieve the treasures of our own ancestry to inform and enrich our lives!
Join us in creating a future that
we can all be proud of
We invite you to step up and step in - to experience the great power of shamanic earth-based wisdom, and the possibility of a healed future for the earth and all of life. We are the ancestors of the future. It is time to come together to create a future that we can all be proud of.
The Gathering at the Cosmic Fire Summit is created for all of us, whether you are a shamanic healer or teacher, a shamanic organization, a potential client or student, or someone who is simply curious to learn more about the vast and extraordinary world of shamanism. We welcome people who are new to the world of shamanism as well as those who are already familiar with the practices, as there is always something new to learn and to discover.
“All human beings are descendants of tribal people who were spiritually alive, intimately in love with the natural world, children of Mother Earth. When we were tribal people, we knew who we were, we knew where we were, and we knew our purpose. This sacred perception of reality remains alive and well in our genetic memory. We carry it inside of us, usually in a dusty box in the mind's attic, but it is accessible.” ― John Trudell
About Shamans Directory
Shamans Directory is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) online global directory created for earth-based practitioners, original people, and first nation healers, conceived to inspire new ways for the world to experience shamanic wisdom on a beautifully designed, professional, and easy to use platform. We welcome all tribes, nations, healers, teachers, trainings, and platforms who are aligned with living earth-based lineages to join our global community - and those seeking healing or who are simply curious to learn more, to step into the dream.
We are more than a directory. We are a movement with a mission to bring shamanic earth-based wisdom and medicine to the forefront of people’s minds when considering their overall health and wellbeing, and the future of our planet. Many healing modalities have international directories. We believe that it is time for shamanic earth-based medicine to be honored in the same way, so that people everywhere can have access to the healing that humanity needs.
Bringing the world’s living lineages together around one fire, so that the web of sacred medicine that encircles our earth can be made whole again.
Shamans Directory is proud to bring you the Gathering At The Cosmic Fire 2024 Summit in partnership with The Mother Earth Delegation of United Original Nations and Roots of the Earth (Raíces de la Tierra).
