The practice of shamanism is very common in Indonesian society, especially in Java, because in ancient times many people used shamans as a solution if there was a problem, whether it was a personal problem or a village. Shamans themselves are very numerous and easy to find in ancient times. But as time goes by, with the development of technology, shamans also disappear, it's been once and rarely in this millennial era to find shamans even though they still exist. Then the practice of shamans themselves, or black magic, is more inclined to harm than gain, therefore the practice of shamans is also rare nowadays.
