Shape-shifting is also called skin walking. It is the ability of a person to transform themselves into something else – an animal, a plant, a fish , a reptile, or a bird ... It is one of the few siddhis that are entirely shamanic in origin and it is also one of the few siddhis to rely on the use of drugs. This video provides numerous examples of shape shifting experiences - jaguars, leopards, wolves, bears, reptiles, various birds and provides the names of the drugs that produce the effects including "witches ointment". There is also an explanation of why a witch has a broom.
