Guide of Souls-Death Tender Training
12 month ONLINE group training program for Guide of Souls Credential
Next training begins in January 2026
In the Web of Life Tradition of Full Circle Animism, A Guide of Souls or Death Tender Practitioner is one with the honed skill set of an Animist Minister, Pastoral Counselor and/or Spirit Bridge practitioner, who uses these abilities on behalf of those who are in an era of facing death in their life, in the process of active dying, and/or assistance for those who’s Soul is trying to find their way after/in between physical life.
Some aspects of Life can only be addressed at the threshold of Death.
Whether One goes through, or not, One is Changed.
Our Death Transition Spirit Bridge Practitioner Training explores:
~Holding space for others to contemplate Death as a presence in Life, their Death, and to enhance “preparedness” for Death when it visits
~Supporting those who have been touched by devastating Death (violence, too soon, tragic)
~Advocating for Animists and Earth honoring People so they can die and be tended in the ways that are important to them
~Tending the Deaths during Life and the needs of the People involved, as well as the Spirit/Soul of the Human during the final death transition
~Assisting the smooth passage of One’s Soul when death comes (physical and spiritual world issues)
~Decifering what is needed when untended trauma, regret, confusion or denial obstructs Soul Flow during active dying
~Calling upon psychopomp allies, guardians and ancestors to Guide One’s Soul where it needs to be
~Activating personal protection and maintaining life affirming boundaries
~Connecting with the Beauty of Life in the physical and spiritual worlds to maintain a buoyancy in heart and soul

This series is a vocational development course. *Equivalent training= Intermediate or more of “shamanic”/psychic/channeling practitioner course or study, so you feel confident to “journey”/tune in on someone else’s behalf. Quynn decides if outside training is an acceptable equivalent.
