Story
Jewish mysticism is a powerful study within the Jewish tradition. Rooted in antiquity and veiled in mystery until quite recently, Jewish mysticism has burst into the modern world in guises both illuminating and bewildering. Throughout Jewish history, flashes of the light held within sacred texts have sparked the sages' inquisitive minds throughout the diaspora. Rising out of the ashes of the temples once standing in Jerusalem, the texts and theologies associated with Jewish mysticism have comforted and ecstatically raise those who have used their knowledge.

From her role as protector of roadways to her power as the bringer of death, she offers us keys for healing. Incorporating her personal experiences with those of her students, Cyndi Brannen weaves a supporting circle around the listener as they start their path towards soulful living, culminating in rebirth.

In The Green Witch, you will learn the way of the green witch, from how to use herbs, plants, and flowers to make potions and oils for everyday healing as well as how crystals, gems, stones, and even twigs can help you find balance within.

Almost 40 years since its original publication, Drawing Down the Moon continues to be the only detailed history of the burgeoning but still widely misunderstood Neo-Pagan subculture. Margot Adler attended ritual gatherings and interviewed a diverse, colorful gallery of people across the United States, people who find inspiration in ancient deities, nature, myth, even science fiction. In this revised edition, Adler takes a fascinating and honest look at the religious experiences, beliefs, and lifestyles of modern America's Pagan groups.

Story
In layered prose and with thoughtful, accessible scholarship, Aslan narrates the history of religion as one long and remarkably cohesive attempt to understand the divine by giving it human traits and emotions. According to Aslan, this innate desire to humanize God is hardwired in our brains, making it a central feature of nearly every religious tradition. As Aslan writes, "Whether we are aware of it or not, and regardless if we are believers or not, what the vast majority of us think about when we think about God is a divine version of ourselves."

Story
Riane Eisler believes that war and the "war of the sexes" are concepts neither divinely nor biologically ordained. Join the author as she reconstructs a prehistoric culture based on partnership rather than domination and traces the roots of the global shift to patriarchy. Eisler, an acclaimed scholar, futurist, and activist, also presents new scripts for living based on a more socially, economically, ecologically, personally, and spiritually balanced society. This script is in direct opposition to the tension and violence typical of what she calls the dominator model. Her vision is the partnership model, which today is struggling to reemerge. This program is an important contribution to that struggle.

Story
"The North" is simultaneously a location, a direction, and a mystical concept. Although this concept has ancient roots in mythology, folklore, and fairy tales, it continues to resonate today within modern culture. McIntosh leads listeners through the magical and spiritual history of the North, as well as its modern manifestations, as documented through physical records, such as runestones and megaliths, but also through mythology and lore. This mythic conception of a powerful, mysterious Northern civilization was known to the Greeks as "Hyberborea" - the "Land Beyond the North Wind".

Five Stars
Fact, in talking so broadly on a many-faceted religious act comprised of differing ideas you run the chance of Higher speculating, but it's made clear everywhere that traveling such diversity and coming to the spiritual table with a spirit open to changing paths is a part of the rule, not the end of it. In fact, it's the careful emphasis on beginning and expectation that this is simply the last book you'll learn on

At last!..
I probably read somewhere around 10 books on agnosticism (there aren't many!) and have viewed them all as so waffle, dubious and ailing in REAL data somebody can really utilize. This anyway is very acceptable truly there is a couple of reflection type exercises you can do (or not do!),

A stream of knowledge
For anyone who is Pagan and requires people to receive more about their ideas or theories, then this is the book to hand them to learn. It will assist obtain rid of any preconceived notions of what this way of life is all about. A stream of knowledge that will disperse any of the definition that has been created over years of prejudice and lack of education. I found it very enjoyable, entertaining, and informative. It is written in such a way that makes it easy to understand and gives a very open-minded view of a lot of the Pagan religions.

I've been a singular witch for more than 30 years,
This book and its archetype are probably the best I've perused as I seek after my examinations. Mari Silva's composing is clear and direct. She doesn't gloss over the difficult work that goes into a satisfying Pagan practice, however she doesn't leave the peruse feeling stuck external the doors all things considered. She has a word of wisdom - and consistently underlines that all it's kin's obligation to utilize or not utilize the apparatuses he offers.

I got this audiobook for my daughter.
I got this audiobook for my daughter. She is a Religion major in college and is getting about various belief systems while forming her own. I thought that this book would really talk to her because of her love of all things associated with nature and animals and her usual objection to the religions favored by the people of the book.

good information about compatibility
Mari Silva has written a clear and thorough survey of paganism. She teaches pagan idols, beliefs, rites of passage, magick, types, tools, routines, and more. She even provides a questionnaire to help readers identify which pagan culture might be a good fit.
