I've read an awful lot of books on Paganism over the years and many are just the same stuff rehashed. This sometimes left me feeling that I wasn't learning anything new on a spiritual scale - So much so that I haven't read any for a good few years.

This book, while not strictly pagan in a western esoteric sense has taught me a huge amount and given me reams to think about. I read it after coming across the idea of Native Americans thinking of stones as people and their use of sacred sites of power - it made me realise that I could probably find some of that missing link to what my Native Albion forebears believed and practised that is missing from some of the modern reinventions of Paganism.

It definitely provided that and more. I would thoroughly recommend it. I know that the author has been criticised for not being 'authentically' Native American but as she and others have said - it doesn't really matter: the practises were meant for the 'rainbow people', that is everyone.

Of all the Native Indian spiritual books, I enjoyed this one the most. Her journey and lessons felt most natural and real.

I really hate to give this such a low rating, but I don't like books that give you "exercises" to do. No matter how well meaning, I just skip over them. I had received her newsletters about 30 years ago, and always meant to read her book when it came out. Now that I finally have it, it's taken me about 2 years to read--mostly because it's the one I turn to while I'm waiting for my son to brush his teeth, so I only get about a page at a time. That probably also makes it hard to do an honest review. Part autobiography and part spiritual guide. She combines traditional ceremonies with other healing modalities, and encourages each of us to become better people.
Maybe I'll have to edit this review later, to give a better flavor of the book!
