The shaking tent ceremony is a shamanic ceremony practiced among the Alqonquian (Native American) peoples of North America, which include the Cree, Menominee, Ojibwas, Odawa and Salteaux, among others. The purpose of the ceremony is either to heal, to divine or to prophesy. The ceremony got its name from the violent shaking of the tent, attributed to the presence of spirits, while the shaman is bound by ropes and suspended inside, in a state of trance. Apart from the violent shaking, sparks of light may also be witnessed coming from inside the tent. Outside the tent, there is singing and beating of drums. The ceremony has survived the attempts of early Christian missionaries to stamp it out, and is experiencing a revival among the so-called First Nation groups.
