Can a soul retrieval be done for someone without their knowledge?
An ethical shaman (see How to Choose Your Shaman) will not perform a shamanic journey on anyone without their knowledge. Conscious permission is required before a journey can be done for someone. Exceptions are a parent requesting a journey for a child or a relative that is not in a conscious state or for someone who has crossed over. Even in these exceptions, the shaman receives permission for the journey the person’s spirit guides.
