“As in the case of the tea serjim, the shaman prepares the juniper serjim for someone else to use. In Mongolia and Siberia, the sacred smoke arsa (juniper) is kept on hand in large quantity because a shaman will often be required to prepare such a serjim, either by itself or in addition to other types of serjim. When the shaman prepares this serjim, he speaks over a few spoonfuls of ground juniper to invoke the spirits and ask them to empower the juniper for a particular intention. The shaman then wraps up the juniper into a little paper bundle. The client will burn a bit of it every day until it is gone in order to continue to energize the intention that has been introduced into the juniper.”

“Shamans recognize certain parts of the drum as being the top, bottom, left, and right sides. Ribbons and hadags are tied to the top, left, and right sides of the drum to represent the crown and ears of the drum.”

“Imitational magic involves the imitation of certain actions by the shaman in order to manifest particular forces in the spiritual realm, such as the acting out of drawing and releasing a bow when shooting magical arrows against an enemy.”
