Myths & Archetypal Wisdom

Pick the fairy tale that currently appeals to you in the book, and Dr. Estes will show you how it is a hidden map with step by step instructions through whatever challenge is currently before you. Fascinating, empowering and juicy with information.

A powerful read.

Native

AnimalSpeakAnimal-Speak

This book sits on the bookshelf next to my bed so that I can reach it while I am still rubbing sleep from my eyes. If you work with animals, or totemic energy, this is the ultimate compendium.

MedicineWomanMedicine Woman

by Lynn V. Andrews

Some say this book and series is fictional, some say autobiographical. Either way it is one of the most inspiring ventures into Native wisdom that was seen for some time.

TouchingSpirit-BearTouching Spirit Bear

by Ben Mikaelsen

A fabulous story for teens. In the story tribal law is applied to a situation with some violent youth offenders. Informative and beautiful. I think it should be mandatory reading in the high schools.

I love Richard Bach. In this short, yet endearing story of a seagull, we journey on the metaphor of soul growth, reincarnation and quantum reality.

Anything by Paulo Coelho is a personal must have for me. In The Pilgrimage the characters undertake an ancient mystical journey, in modern times, to find their power. If you had your power, what would you do with it?

ThePowerofIntentionThe Power of Intention

“Intention is everything”, as we always say. This book is an easy to read exploration of this topic and technique for creation.

Quantum Physics

MindofGodThe Mind of God

by Jim Al-Khalili

The major quantum science experiments in a prettily illustrated, simply explained book. A great book for the curious minded.

MenareFromMarsWomenAreFromVenusMen are From Mars, Women Are From Venus

by John Gray

Be prepared to laugh your way into understanding the different sexes. This series also came out on video and is as much stand up comedy as it is educational. Thank you Dr. Gray.

 OneOne

by Richard Bach

What if all time was now, and all realities are One? This is plainly a great read. It is also the book that started me on my quantum physics journey.

Spiritual Growth

LoveWithoutConditionsLove Without Conditions

Very hot tantra stories. This book is of the red path and so is less technical. It is taught in short story format.

Still the standard in the field. The first half is theory, the second half exercises. A very powerful book for awakening your kundalini energy.

Wicca

by Janet & Stewart Farrar

Ground breaking. One of the first to break the Oath of Silence, and the only book so far without any intentional or unintentional double blinds. A practical look at the Wheel of the Year, and some of the Celtic ceremonies involved. A fabulous history as well about our common holidays and traditions.

TeenWitchTeen Witch

by Silver Ravenwolf

She’s a mom and she’s an esteemed author and a witch. After all the silly Hollywood movies, this is a great book to leave on the table for teens. The first chapter is for parents and sets up this gentle, Earth and Goddess centred tradition as an empowering way for teens to explore who they are.

TheSpiralDance-The Spiral Dance

by Starhawk

One of the originals! Be warned that although this book is a treasure of information, it is not very male friendly.The exercises for psychic development are still used in most places, and I suggest it for all libraries – take the good, and leave the politics.
