About Medicine Fans

Feathers have traditionally been used for a variety of purposes. They are an integral part of shamanic practice, and they are used as regalia and tools for smoke cleansing and healing.

A shaman can use feathers during a healing session. Medicine fans are made of entire bird wings and move energy around in a client's energy field. They can also be used as smoke-cleansing fans, wafting smoke from burning herbs. Feather fans during smoke cleansing give you better control over where you are sending the smoke.

Each fan will also bring animal medicine for the animals who gave their parts to the fan. The fan is a living entity and can significantly enhance your spiritual practice. When you first receive it, you should journey with your fan to discover what medicine it will bring to your practice and what skills it can teach you.

Animal Medicine

Crow Wing: The crow is a mystical gateway to the spirit realm, granting access to insights and understanding beyond the reach of the rational mind. Its magic allows us to appreciate the mysteries of life and cultivate a sense of curiosity about the unknown. Its connection to the unknown and ability to adapt to change make it a powerful animal spirit for those seeking transformation. It is an enduring symbol of intelligence, a higher perspective, and fearless audacity. The crow can also, at times, be a trickster as it is incredibly cunning. It is a messenger to the lower realms, enabling a strong connection with those who have gone before us.

Rabbit Fur: Call on rabbit medicine for manifestation and abundance. Rabbits can also move incredibly fast, so the rabbit spirit can help if you feel stuck. Rabbits have a strong association with the moon and the Sacred Feminine. It takes a young rabbit 28 days to become fully self-sufficient. You can also call on the rabbit to help you speed up tasks that seem too long to complete. When working with rabbits, always work with moon timing.

All of the fans made by White Thunder Bear are sourced from cruelty-free animal parts. Feathers and wings are created from birds that either shed them naturally, died of natural causes, or were consumed for food, where using all of the parts of each animal is an honoring of the animal. Furs and leather are sourced from the same supplier that sources parts for first families.
