Cassandra Hamilton.

Cassandra prayed and dreamed with a medicine wheel stone for a year, as part of a medicine wheel planetary healing ceremony in 1997 with Hyemeyohsts Storm, author of Seven Arrows and ten other books, who named her Thunder Being (One Who Reminds People Why They Are Here). In 1998, Albert “Little Turtle” Dugas gifted her his medicine bundle before he passed with instructions she do as she was taught but in her own way. In 2003, she healed her rare eye disease using a macrobiotic diet given to her by Michio Kushi and a shamanic journey guided by Lewis Mehl Madrona that was witnessed by dozens of workshop attendees. She’s learned from core shamans (including Michael Harner, Sandra Ingerman and Keshav Howe) and well as shamans who practice their culture and visit the United States (such as Tzenwaxolokwauhtli, Carrier of the Mexihka Black Smokey Mirror Tradition). She’s a Level 4 Dream Teacher in Robert Moss’s School for Active Dreaming. Her master’s degree is in the Special Field Study of Shamanism and the Arts from Wesleyan University.
