The shaman, shaman or shaman, is a person considered by his tribe or group as the intermediary or intercessor between humans and spirits.
The shaman is at the same time a sage, a therapist, an advisor, a healer and a seer. He is the initiate or custodian of the culture, beliefs, practices of shamanism, and a potential form of cultural secrecy. It is mainly found in traditional societies where it wears specific adornments and often practices in a certain secrecy.
The supposed abilities of shamans are, among others, extrasensory perception; psychic powers that vary according to the traditions and individuality of the shaman (telepathy, prescience, vision at great distances, divination, etc.); as a psychopomp, he connects the world of the dead, the afterlife, to that of the living through a series of personal transformations, sometimes through the use of psychotropic substances, guided by an older shaman, according to a Master-Disciple relationship..
