Trance can be associated with an altered state of consciousness.
From the French transe (which, in turn, has origins in the Latin transire ), trance is the decisive, critical and transcendental moment that a person can go through . For example: “The actress is going through a difficult ordeal after the death of her daughter,” “Juan was able to overcome the ordeal with the support of his loved ones,” “In the midst of the ordeal, the man had the lucidity necessary to make a called for peace.”
The trance can also be the last time of life , close or immediate to death : “The last trance found him alone, away from his family and wrapped in terrible pain,” “He went through the mortal trance with great nobility and calmness.” ” .
Trance, on the other hand, is the state in which the soul feels that it has reached a mystical union with God . It is a psychological mechanism through which a person surrenders to certain conditions (internal or external) and experiences a new state of consciousness: “The shaman entered a trance and began to emit guttural sounds while moving frantically , ” After drinking the mysterious elixir, Anethuamen fell into a trance and had visions of the future of his community .
Shamanic trance
Nowadays, many people find themselves trapped in the unbridled rhythm of life in society, and it is common for them to look for a way out, an escape route to cleanse their conscience and get closer to their spiritual side. Shamanic trances are states that are achieved through various methods, some that include the consumption of certain substances, and those who have experienced them often describe them as a revealing and unparalleled experience.
It is worth mentioning that for certain indigenous cultures, shamanic trances are paths that they follow regularly and normally, and they do so to keep their soul, mind and body in balance . From his point of view, an urbanized Western society is very far from such a spiritual balance.
The shamanic world does not consider the human being as the main piece of the universe, although it recognizes its importance and its obligations to maintain the harmony of all existence. We belong to a great network of life, and we are responsible for its balance as much as the other members. Although there are very few shamans in the world and they are confused among the large number of scammers who take advantage of people's ignorance, some believe that through trance techniques it is possible to build channels that lead to the knowledge that our ancestors, to recover what civilization has taken from us.

The wisdom of the shaman
According to shamanic wisdom, its techniques allow us to modify the filter that we apply to our perception of reality, and thus show us a large number of planes that we normally cannot appreciate. These methods of entering trance are doors to a series of non-individual knowledge, which is presented to us and which we cannot modify or enrich. It is said that the other side contains the information of our entire existence, of all possible events, of our past and our future.
Shamanic trance changes the lives of many people, but not everyone dares to try it more than once. It is known that the first sessions are usually induced by the consumption of some substance, under the supervision of a shaman, and that once a certain amount of experience has been achieved, it becomes possible to completely dispense with drugs. However, given that in the wrong hands the consequences can be very serious, it is advisable to do your homework before taking the first step.
Those who define themselves as mediums affirm that trance is the state in which paranormal phenomena manifest. The trance state involves neurovegetative and kinesthetic changes and is usually associated with spiritual enlightenment .
