15-20 years ago I took a 9 month course called, “Developing the heart and hands of a healer” We did stuff like crystal healing, shamanic drumming, chanting, and meditation. At the end of the course we were supposed to make a power object. There were some cleaver and artistic people in the class that made some really nice objects.
I cut a hole for my head in the middle of a blanket and draped it over me like a tunic. I used some of the extra blanket to make a hood and a hand warmer pocket, then I sewed a bell on the end of the hood, and called it my journey cloak.
On Mungo says Bah’s site he writes about a cool way to make a hooded journey cloak out of a blanket without having to cut up your blanket.
