Is it possible to find shamanic symbols in the game, like for the other religions?

Nope. You can steal symbols from your dead enemies and wear em, flaunting your leet pk skills. But you get no benefits from it, just annoying people demanding you return their symbols.

I have talked about this before, finding replacements for symbol slots but to no avail, and with a lot of flame. I do believe if you wear a symbol you lose some of your powers and if an imm sees you I think its punishable because you aren't supposed to represent a deity, just the spirits.

There are some sacred things for shaman, right?

By things, do you mean a sacred suit? There's a pantheon suit that anyone who isn't in a religion can wear.

So there are no Shaman symbols.

Is there a reason why?

And if not...

At journeyman status:

[Spells help] spirit symbol

Syntax: cast 'spirit symbol'

This spell will enable a shaman to create an symbol that
is dedicated to the spirits of his alignment. A shaman can only make a symbol for his alignment, although he can wear the symbols of other alignments, as long as they are dedicated to the spirits.

Maybe give some slight enchants. Something like a buff to hp or something like that. It could even be made different for the different alignments. I'm not married to the idea, and if an Imm says no, for whatever reason, then I'll abide by that decision and shut the hell up. If not I'd love for anyone to suggest a different idea, or change mine around.

We hate you and want to deny you the +3 stats you get from a symbol.

This comes up pretty reliably every few months or so, and gets turned down: Essentially, being pantheist allows you access to spirit aura, a buff which is far greater than symbol enchantments make up for on most characters.

Shamans are too awesome to need symbols.

Sadly they suck at leveling, until you get spirit horde (mentor).
