Shamanism is an earth-based spirituality in which spirits of the land—animals, plants, elementals, ancestors, faeries—play dominant roles as teachers, guides, and guardians. In Celtic traditions the Spirit of the Land Herself is named Sovereignty. She is the Goddess of the Land, the foundation for all moral and political authority. Sovereignty appears in countless tales about the need to show her hospitality, embrace her, speak for her, and ultimately love her. In turn she helps a person take charge of one’s own life and direct its course.
