About me

Christiane Bantel


I am Christiane, a guide and space holder for deep inner processes. In my work, I combine shamanic wisdom, intuitive soul work, and a clear, grounded approach.

I guide children, teenagers, and adults in remembering their innermost essence and bringing to light what often lies hidden: individual gifts, potentials, inner resources, and their own soul path. It is important to me that these insights do more than simply touch you. They are meant to be consciously integrated and lived in your everyday life.

No wings without roots.

    How I work

    Intuitively guided, yet grounded


    I do not follow a fixed formula. Every person, every child, and every topic brings something of its own and deserves to be seen and guided in its own way.

    At the heart of my work are shamanic journeys and the connection to power animals and inner images. Depending on the session, other elements may come into play, including runes, archetype work, astrological and numerological impulses, ancestral work, rituals, and the knowledge of natural cycles and the wheel of the year. My aim is not to combine as many methods as possible, but to follow what reveals itself in the moment and what is ready to be seen.

    What is a shamanic journey?

    The shamanic journey is a very old spiritual practice in which the steady rhythm of a drum or rattle brings about an altered state of consciousness, comparable to a deep meditative state or a very vivid daydream. This allows me to access other worlds and dimensions beyond our everyday awareness.

    Traditionally, a distinction is made between the Lower, Middle, and Upper World, connected like the levels of a world tree: its roots reaching into the depths, its trunk in our present world, and its crown opening upward. On such an inner journey, power animals and other companions, landscapes, images, symbols, or messages may appear. What shows up and how a journey is experienced is very individual.

    An important part of my work is therefore translation: I receive images, messages, and impulses and translate them into words, symbols, and soul images. Not as a rigid interpretation, but as an invitation to recognize your own inner truth in them.

    Power animal journeys and soul journeys can take place both in person and remotely. I go on the shamanic journey for you or for your child and bring back the images, messages, and impulses. You do not need to be able to journey yourself or have any experience with meditation or shamanic work.

    It is not about telling you who you are. It is about making visible what has been within you all along.

    I am incredibly grateful for the shamanic pregnancy guidance with Christiane. Her empathetic, intuitive, and powerful way carried me through this special time and helped me on so many levels. Through her guidance I was not only able to gain more trust in my own body, but also to build a deeper connection with my baby. Especially enriching were the various rituals she carried out so mindfully. Each one had its own effect. They encouraged me to listen to my inner voice and helped me connect deeply with myself. Throughout the whole time I felt seen, heard, and held. Her guidance was a precious anchor in this special phase of life. I can wholeheartedly recommend this shamanic support, it was a gift for me and my child.

    Shamanic Pregnancy Guidance, Maria S. - Baden-Württemberg, Germany

    Christiane has a unique way of using her shamanic journeys to reveal what lies beneath the surface. She has a remarkable gift for reading the energy around people and the themes they bring, and for using the images she receives and the language of symbols to illuminate what lies at the heart of it all. Her work reaches deeply into themes of the primordial feminine, ancestral lineage and personal power. Through her group guidance during The Return of the Dragons, I reconnected deeply with this power within me in an entirely new way. She also has an extraordinary ability to hold group spaces in a highly individual and personalized way, supporting each woman in her own personal process. That is truly brilliant! What I particularly appreciate is Christiane’s ability to translate symbolic language and channeled information into everyday life, encouraging us to turn what we receive into real action. From the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU for the work you do!

    The Return of the Dragons, 6-week guided online space for women. Jana-C. R. - Andalucía, Spain

    The encounter with my black jaguar spirit deeply touched and fascinated me. The journey allowed me to dive deeper into myself and see myself in an entirely new way. Christiane also did spirit animal journeys for my daughters, grandchildren and son-in-law. Each one was completely unique – with very different images, energies and beings that resonated so beautifully with each individual. It was especially fascinating for the children to discover their own spirit animals and inner worlds. And there were magical moments – like with two of my grandchildren, whose journeys both led into snowy winter landscapes, while outside it actually began to snow that very day.

    Family Power Animal Journeys, Ulrike W. - Vorarlberg, Austria

    The power animal journey was a very special and moving experience for my child. Alongside the power animal, a clear quartz crystal also appeared during the journey. My child had often struggled with anxiety around tests at school, so we got a small clear quartz crystal, which has since taken on a special meaning. It now travels to school in the pencil case. It is wonderful to see how calming the crystal can be. Holding it helps my child feel more settled and focused. In this way, the clear quartz has become a little companion, offering a sense of comfort and support in challenging situations.

      • Power Animal Journey for Children, Agascha L. - Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany I was deeply moved by how clearly I recognized my child in their power animal and in the soul messages and imagery that came through – while at the same time feeling that I had been given an even deeper glimpse into their soul.
      • Power Animal Journey for Children, Charlotte S. - California, USA Christiane did power animal journeys for both my children, and even as little kids, they seemed empowered knowing they were connected to a specific animal and the natural world.
