A Free Monthly Gathering
Reclaiming Our Role as Caretakers of the Web of Life
For thousands of years, keeping the earth in balance for future generations was inseparable from the human experience. This is a free, ongoing circle where people from around the world journey together to remember that role, and to help repair the fabric of the Web of Life. We are many ripples, from many places, moving toward the same healing.
The Circle
Spiritual Healing for the Web of Life
The Web of Life Shamanic Journey Circle is a live, online gathering held once a month on Zoom. Together we journey in the spirit world to help humanity return to balance with the earth. There is a great deal we can do in the physical world, and there is a point at which the deeper work is a shift in consciousness. That is work we do best together.
The circle is open to everyone, and there is no cost to take part.
Everyone Is Welcome
Whether You Are New or Have Walked This Path for Years

The Journey We Share
Joining Us Live
The circle is open to new members. To take part in the live journey, we ask that:
- You already know how to journey to the Lower World and meet your Power Animal.
- You are committed to working in right alignment with Life-Affirming Spirits only.
- Your intention for being here is to help Repair the Fabric of the Web of Life.
- You turn on your video at the start to introduce yourself briefly, for example, "Hi, I am Scott and I live in Hawaii." After that, you are welcome to turn your video off if you prefer.
New to journeying? The free tutorial above will get you ready.
Our Shared Journey
In each circle we journey together with a shared intention to heal a specific place and the animals and plants that live there. In general, we:
- Ask to be shown the Web of Life and its fabric.
- Ask our Benevolent Spirit Helpers to show us any injury to that fabric, such as tears or disconnections.
- Ask to be shown the causes of these injuries.
- Ask for the fabric of the Web of Life to be fully healed and repaired.
- Ask to be shown how we can help rebalance humanity's relationship with the Web of Life in a positive way.
- As a group, work together to repair the fabric of the Web of Life.
While Journeying for a Specific Place
- Explain your intention to restore harmony and balance to that location and the animals and plants that live there; and to transmute any pollution that is present.
- Familiarize yourself with a photo of the place before journeying and set the intention that it be restored to harmony and balance when you journey.
- Ask to be given lessons about the pollution, the healing, and the transmutation process, and how that applies not only to the location just healed, but also to your own life and to humanity in general.
Guidelines for Every Journey
- Journey to either the Upper or Lower World.
- Always work with your Benevolent Spirit Helpers.
- At the end of the journey, ask to be given messages, guidance, or actions to share with others.
- Ask what you can learn for yourself from the experience, and how to live in greater harmony with the Web of Life.
- Record what you were shown in your journal.
- If you cannot join us live, you are warmly invited to journey on your own time, and to share your experience with us.

Nominate a Place for the Circle to Heal
Each month our circle turns its care toward one specific place on our planet that needs healing, and we journey together on its behalf. The places come from you.
There is a difference between sending healing out to the world in general and standing with one place, knowing its name, and telling its story. What plants and animals live there? What are they facing? It is more intimate, and it is a truer act of reciprocity, a real way of giving something back to the land that gives us everything.
How It Works
- Tell us about a place. Where it is, what is happening to it, how the plants and animals that live there are being impacted, and why it matters to you. Send photos if you can.
- It does not need to be famous or far away. Some of the places most in need of our care are the ones only a few people notice, a creek, a stand of trees, a stretch of shoreline near where you live.
- Scott reads every one. Not every place can be chosen right away, and some may wait a while, but nothing shared is lost.
- When a place is chosen, its story is shared with the circle before we gather, so we all journey knowing what we are journeying for.
Every place brought to the circle matters
Journey With Us
Each month we gather to journey for the healing of a specific place on our planet that needs our care. Leave your email and we will let you know where we are turning our care next, and send you the recording afterward.
