Unveil and reclaim the life you’re meant to live — one of gratitude, wonder & meaning — through the wisdom of the Celtic Medicine Wheel.
Connect with Celtic Gods and Goddesses, the ancestors, Bards, Druids, and Faeries to awaken your soul and the sacred within you.
A spell has been cast for many years by our modern culture... a spell that’s beginning to dissolve as a new world emerges right before your eyes.
This spell has had us believing we’re separate from the natural world, and that we must have dominion over it...
This spell has made us believe that abundance is measured mostly by our accumulation of material things...
And, this spell has perpetuated the biggest illusion of all...
... the infectious idea that the world consists of only that which we can see, and that the invisible real — the Otherworld, which holds so much wisdom, guidance, and magic for us — does not exist at all.
Until we break this spell, we can’t truly live our soul’s destiny. We can’t stand in our own sovereignty. We’re not living the life we’re meant to live.
Yet in this shifting worldscape, we have the opportunity to release our grip on all of the demands and chaos of modern life and connect to our soul’s deepest knowing.
The ancient Celts knew that this sacred connection is nourished by a close and reciprocal relationship with the land...
... a land they knew to be not only alive with the birth, death, and rebirth cycles of the Great Mother Goddess, but with the healing energies of the ancestors, and the Bards, Druids, and Faeries of Irish history and lore.
To the Celts, sovereignty is being in right relationship with the Earth, the Heavens, and your own soul.
It means having rulership over your own life... which starts by beginning to notice how much of your life you’re actually living, and how much time you make for self-expression and self-care.
When you do this... when you answer the call of your soul, everything else comes into alignment — the universe offers its support.
In Celtic Shamanism with shamanic teacher and practitioner Jane Burns, you’ll set foot in the Gaelic lands, drawing wisdom, guidance, and healing from its shamanic traditions, the Gods and Goddesses of its great myths, and from the Fae, the Otherworld, alive with the energies and earth-wisdom of the faeries.
You’ll learn the traditional Celtic ways of seeing and being in the world... rituals steeped in gratitude, generosity, courage, and wonder — offering a medicine to bring you back home... to your true Self, your sovereignty, and a life rich with a deep connection to the natural world and the sacred.
You’ll explore and reclaim the virtues and qualities of living in your sovereignty, guided by the wisdom of the Celtic Medicine Wheel, which helps us unveil and break through the core challenges of living an honorable and meaningful life.
Are you living the life you came here to live — the one your soul desires?
Do you welcome your challenges as opportunities for growth?
Does your work have meaning and purpose?
Do you have clarity about your soul’s destiny, and do you faithfully serve that destiny — no matter the sacrifice?
In this powerful journey into the rich and sacred wisdom of the Celts, you’ll be expertly guided through ritual, myth, and journeying to address these questions, and much more...
During this experiential course, you’ll:
- Identify and hone the virtues and qualities that can bring you to greater sovereignty
- Choose greater wholeness and ensoulment over greater accumulation
- Live each day with a higher expression of wonder and gratitude
- Become more conscious about the impact of your decisions and actions
- Realize the story of your ideal life — the life you came here to live
- Meet challenge with gratitude and open arms
- Transmute the lead of adversity into the gold of wisdom and sovereignty
- Bring shape to the destiny of your soul and begin to live it
- Witness your inner struggles with compassion and unconditional love
- Explore your creative gifts with courage and joy
- Craft your legacy and undertake the living of it
Embody the Celtic Way of Seeing and Being for More Courage, Gratitude & Wonder
The glorious myths and stories of the Gaels, and the grace and beauty of their practices and traditions, invite you to step into the courage, gratitude, and wonder of the Celtic way of seeing and being — which was sustained in a world no less chaotic or foreboding than ours.
The ensouled and reverent practices of these wise and poetic people teach you how to walk with greater sovereignty and clarity in your body and soul, your work and relationships.
Sovereignty is the universal remedy for all the struggle and imbalance we experience, Jane teaches. It nullifies the impact of karma and ancestral patterning.
Jane, who is 100 percent Irish/Scottish, studied extensively with Tom Cowan, a world-renowned and highly respected authority on Celtic shamanism.
She also studied core shamanism, soul retrieval, and shamanic teacher training with acclaimed shamanism teacher Sandra Ingerman. And she has over 20 years of experience in the fields of psychic and medical intuition, energy medicine, and past-life regression therapy.
Today, Jane believes, the state of our world (and our own inner state) is in dire need of our being in right relationship with the Earth. It needs us to love and serve, with passion and conviction, the old Goddess Sovereignty, the Great Mother of the Land, who brings us prosperity, fertility, goodness, beauty, freedom, strength, and vitality.
The ancient Celts recognized that though life was arduous, it was also full of gifts, possibility, and endless creative potential — as long as they were willing to stand in alignment with that generous life-giving flow.
The courage that requires was not underestimated. The Celts knew they could not benefit from the riches and magic that life on this Earth had to offer if they bowed out of their destiny.
The scripts we sometimes run, such as: I don’t have time... I’m no good at that... I don’t have what it takes... No one understands or appreciates me... separate us from our destiny and purpose. They whittle away the sovereignty we require to live our full potential — our soul’s true calling.
How willing are you to claim back the life you were always intended to live?
What You’ll Discover in These 7 Modules
In this 7-module online course, Jane will guide you through the fundamental spiritual skills and competencies you’ll need to unveil and reclaim the life you’re meant to live — through the wisdom of the Celtic Medicine Wheel.
This course features teachings, training sessions, and experiential practices with Jane. Each module builds harmoniously upon the previous ones so you’ll develop a complete holistic understanding of the practices, tools, and principles you’ll need to connect with Celtic Gods and Goddesses and the ancestors, Bards, Druids, and Faeries to awaken your soul and the sacred within you.
Module 1 Explore the Celtic Medicine Wheel
We’ll begin by creating and entering a sacred gathering place or circle, which the ancient Celts called a nemeton — a clearing in the forest or a Neolithic site. The nemeton was viewed as a place of invocation, ceremony, and creation — a place where heaven and earth united.
We’ll also explore the Celtic Medicine wheel, a nemeton in its own right, and make a brief stop at each of the five points or airts of the wheel, witnessing how this ancient tool outlines some of the core challenges of living an honorable and meaningful life.
Lastly, we’lll hear and contemplate a very old Celtic tale called “The Settling of the Manor of Tara,” which answers the question for the characters in the tale — as well as for us: What is the proper order of things?
In this module, you’ll:
- Begin to ask the important questions about who you are, how you live your life, where you feel strength, and where you experience loss and depletion
- Ascertain a deep truth about yourself that has been forgotten
- Investigate what roles you would welcome playing in this life
- Evaluate the ways you are divided against yourself and how to close that breach
- Identify the “false gods” to whom you have given away your allegiance, and the core purpose of your life that requires that allegiance
- Understand how you have given away your sovereignty and what it takes to reclaim it
Module 2 Marrying the Land
In the Celtic tradition, prosperity of all kinds comes from the Land, or more specifically, from the Goddess Sovereignty. To maintain prosperity in their lives, the Gaels served the Goddess with their devotion and reverence, and they emulated her unconditional generosity by raising hospitality to a virtue, which they conscientiously honed.
This “giving to increase” principle extended not just to feeding a beggar or helping your neighbor harvest his crop. It includes pursuit and service to the deeper yearning of your soul and the role it longs to play. Your greatest contribution in life is bringing to excellence and mastery whatever skill or craft you are called to pursue.
In this module, we will probe the story of Lia Fail, the Stone of Destiny, and recognize the ways in which Lia Fail lives within you.
In this module, you’ll:
- Bring your gifts and talents out of the closet
- Go back and unearth forgotten dreams and yearnings
- Vow allegiance to the inner yearnings of your soul
- Marry the land of your destiny
Module 3 Experience Music Like the Ancient Celts
In the ancient Celtic lands, music was believed to be a gift from the gods, a creation of the Otherworld known as the Oran Mor, or the Great Song. Song kept the world in a state of harmony and that harmony was carefully tended by the Fae, inhabitants of the Otherworld.
It was observed that life was chaotic, arduous, and harsh, and that humans required a way to lift themselves out of the mire, to bring themselves closer to the gods, if they were ever to attain their sovereignty — their own divinity. Music, and the inspiration and comfort it provided, was the force that enabled that ascen -dance.
In this module, you’ll:
- Experience the healing power of the three strains of music: joy, sorrow, and peace
- Discover powerful ways to cultivate inner peace and harmony
- Learn to change the tune of discord with gratitude and surrender
- Discover how to see and hear with the eyes and ears of a faery
Module 4 Open to the Wisdom of Who You Truly Are
Moving beyond the boundaries of what is known demands a bold willingness to forge into uncharted waters, to surrender to the unknown. In core shamanic practice, this is called becoming the hollow bone — letting go of the familiar, of what you think you know, and allowing numinous experience, divine wisdom, and expansive vision to fill you.
In the Celtic tradition, this kind of journey is called an immrama, and might even entail going to sea in a corracle, an oarless boat, and allowing the sea to take you to where she sees fit.
When we sail into boundless and unpredictable waters, we enter a realm that is teeming with possibility. Navigating these waters demands our focus. No one can predict what mysteries these waters contain, but our journey into them is imperative if we are to explore this important question in every person’s life: Who am I?
In this module, you’ll:
- Deeply investigate the question “Who am I?”
- Undertake the living of your life as a heroic journey
- Question the boundaries of your own limitations
- Devote your life to the greatest wisdom of all — the wisdom of who you are
- Explore the expansive sea within yourself for gifts of insight and liberation
Module 5 Lean Into the 'Rough Places'
The greatest battle in life — the only true battle — is the battle within. We are deeply divided beings, severed by our loyalties to an outer temporal world and an inner timeless world.
The depth of that division correlates directly with the measure of struggle we experience in life — be it emotional and physical distress, relationship discord, work dissatisfaction, family trauma, or lack of abundance. The greater the division, the greater the struggle.
This week, we’ll visit the Celtic mythic figure of The Washer at the Ford, who will emphasize how the earth is a place of change — of rough places — and we are called upon by our soul to lean into those reshaping forces and allow ourselves to be broken, reconfigured, rebirthed, and perfected.
In this module, you’ll:
- Discover practices to release the false beliefs and selves that hold you hostage
- Learn to nurture what grows in their place
- Discover how to accept not just your destiny, but the effort it requires to live it
- Learn ways to eulogize what no longer serves you, and let it go
Module 6 Cultivate Your Sovereignty
Celtic wisdom defines sovereignty as being in right standing with the earth beneath us, the heavens above, and the soul inside us. It means knowing your place in the world and standing firmly in it.
We begin life with little or no sovereignty. Children cannot carry the responsibilities that sovereignty implies. In childhood, we develop adaptive skills that help us negotiate challenges and ensure our survival. Maturation requires the reclaiming of our place and standing.
In the Celtic spirit world, there is no greater sin than stealing or manipulating away the sovereignty of another, and the story of Macha will illustrate this for us. We’ll reclaim and become devoted to our own sovereignty, and realize the accomplishments and capabilities of others pose no threat to us. Far from diminishing us, the strengths and talents of others inspire and light our own pathway to sovereignty.
In this module, you’ll:
- Focus your attention on cultivating your own sovereignty
- Witness — with compassion — the ways in which you give away your sovereignty
- Develop self-sustaining responses and behaviors
- Call back lost strength, imagination, and purpose
- Identify your role models and challenge yourself to emulate the virtues they demonstrate
Module 7 Discover the Greatest Contributor to Our Sovereignty
When we are sovereign, we’re at peace with the world around us and the world within us. Inherent in the state of being sovereign is a spirit of allowance — letting things be. In Gaelic, this is what is known as being an sith, which refers to the imagined peace of the Faerylands and the Faery folk, namely the Sidhe, who lived in a realm of no struggle, illness, or deprivation.
What disturbs our equilibrium and peace — our sovereignty — is oftentimes what we cannot let go of, what we cannot “allow.” In blessed moments of clarity, we recall that the only true battle is the battle within us.
The Celts were a warlike and fierce people, but they were also very moral, and their stories are filled with the misfortunes that befall us when we choose arrogance, blind ambition, pride, and jealousy over forgiveness, grace, and humility.
As we end this course, we’ll uncover the greatest contributor to our sovereignty through the story of Finn macCumhail and Diarmuid — forgiveness of ourselves and others.
In this module, you’ll:
- Practice avoiding the struggles that steal your tranquility
- Identify what and who needs to be forgiven
- Learn how you can forgive everyone
- Establish a daily practice of choosing peace over being right
- Become a vigilant witness to the ways in which you lose sovereignty
- Reallocate lost strength to more fruitful goals
