Ancient Wisdom, Beyond Medicine: How a Mother's Intuition Saved Her Son from a Mysterious Illness

In the times of the ancients, there was a young boy called Arnold. He was a very weak and sickly boy. His mum would be constantly worried about him and taking him to the local medicine man for help.

The medicine man would try everything he knew, but the young boy remained sick and seemed to get weaker by the day. The boy's father seemed to have given up hope on him.

Death was not unusual in this time period because life was very hard and only the strongest survived. But Arnold's mum never gave up hope.

Finally, she decided to take him to a shaman who lived in a small village on the other side of the mountain. It would take a while to travel there and it was very dangerous. The father was not keen to make the journey.

They had other children to look after and what would they do without their parents. The mother agreed that he should stay and look after their other children while she and Arnold would make the perilous journey by themselves.

One of the warriors in the village agreed to go with them for the first few miles but he would have to return and couldn't make the whole journey with them.

The mother had good instincts and intuition and she would rely on these skills to enable her to make the journey safely. However, it did feel safer with the warrior by their side.

She did plead with him to stay with them on their journey but he apologized profusely and explained his job was to protect the whole village and not just the two of them.

They were soon alone and frighted, walking through the wild forest. Arnold was not very strong and had to hold onto his mother for support.

They heard many strange sounds and noises in the forest but they continued on despite their fear. The mother's intuition told her it was time to stop and build a large fire and a shelter.

They collected as much fire wood as they could and before long a roaring fire was blazing. They had collected berries along their walk and a few other shrubs that they could eat.

While they could hear growls and snarls in the forest during the night, no animals came close to them with their fire. The mother stayed up all night making sure the fire was fed with enough wood to keep it going while her son slept soundly.

By the middle of the following day, they reached the small village of the shaman. She didn't need to explain the problem as the shaman could see for herself.

She told the mother to wait outside and took the young boy into her hut. It was very smokey and dark. The mother heard the chanting and shouting and while she feared for her son, she knew this was the only thing that could save him.

The boy was possessed by an evil energetic being that was living off his energy, making Arnold exhausted and barely able to function. It took many hours into the evening and finally the shaman brought the boy out to his mother.

Both of them looked exhausted but her son did look lighter. The shaman explained that they would find a hut to sleep in overnight in the village and then to bring the boy back to her in the morning.

Everyone in the village was very kind and shared their food and beds with the pair. After an exhausting day, they fell asleep instantly. As morning broke, the mother awoke to find her son gone.

She panicked and scrambled to her feet and dashed out the small hut to call for him. She saw him playing with some other boys. Running around and chasing each other.

She could not believe her eyes. He was full of energy and excited and chatting away to his new friends. They went back to see the shaman to thank her for everything she did.

The mother was overjoyed. The shaman explained they would need to do another session to check this was no further energies lurking in his system.

The mother was reluctant because her son seemed healed and she wanted to get him home again. But she knew the shaman was right. She needed to do her deep work on her son to fully heal him.

There was more chanting and shouting and before long they re-emerged from the smokey hut. There had indeed been some other energies causing the boy some pain and discomfort but she had released them.

Arnold was like a normal boy once more. Full of life and excitement. They thanked the shaman once more before making the dangerous journey back to their own village.

The mother and son's energy had both changed and they felt safer this time. They still built a large fire and this time the boy volunteered to help keep the fire going during the night.

However, he soon feel asleep and the fire began to dwindle. The mothers intuition woke her and she sensed the danger of the animals creeping closer.

She threw some logs on the fire and got it blazing again. She did not chastise him for she understood he had gone through a lot and she was just grateful to have him back from the brink of death.

When they made it back to their village, everyone rejoiced. Even though the father did not believe in the magic of a shaman, he could not deny, that whatever it was, it had worked and he was grateful.

It turned out that Arnold was just a sensitive and kind young boy and the evil energies had simply taken advantage of him.

His mother just needed to keep an eye on her son and his energy and take him back to the shaman if the need ever arose.

If you feel constantly low in energy then maybe you too need to find yourself a shaman to rid yourself of bad energy.
