An exploration of the use of cannabis as a sacrament in spiritual
practice * Provides instructions for using marijuana for the
spiritual practices of spontaneous movement, ecstatic dance,
sitting meditation, and gazing meditation, allowing you to open the
body's energies more fully and get closer to the Divine or your
higher self * Includes a new translation of the Five Moral Precepts
of Buddhism, adapted to include energetic practices and the
judicious use of entheogenic substances as a legitimate support for
spiritual growth With the end of marijuana prohibition on the
horizon, people are now openly seeking a spiritual path that
embraces the benefits of cannabis. Drawing upon his decades of
experience as a teacher of Buddhism, breathing, yoga, and embodied
spirituality, Will Johnson examines Eastern spiritual perspectives
on marijuana and offers specific guidelines and exercises for
integrating cannabis into spiritual practice. The author explains
how the great Hindu god Shiva enjoyed consuming bhang, a marijuana
mixture that would cause his body to make spontaneous movements.
From these cannabis-inspired movements, Shiva brought the
body-focused practices of dance and yoga to the world. Examining
the spiritual path of Shiva, including the Sadhu tradition, Johnson
provides specific instructions and protocols for using marijuana as
a sacrament as Shiva did.
Beastie [bee-stee]: The overarching spirit of any species of
insect, reptile, bird, mammal, or mythical creature that exists or
has ever existed; also known as an animal totem or spirit animal.
"From an ancient perspective, everything-including all natural
things, like rocks, flowers, trees, insects, birds, and mammals-is
alive and infused with conscious energy or spirit," writes Sarah
Seidelmann. If you're one of the many people looking to reconnect
with the creativity, wisdom, and vital energy of the natural world,
here is a fantastic guide for tapping into the power of animal
totems, or "beasties." The Book of Beasties invites you to explore
why certain animals show up in your life-and what teachings they
may be trying to share. Packed with information, illustrations, and
traditional and modern insights into the unique qualities of
different beasties, The Book of Beasties teaches you about: * Guest
Beasties: how certain beasties enter your life to give you messages
or assistance you need just when you need them * Core Beasties:
meet the guiding beasties who are your lifelong companions,
friends, and helpers * Beastie Relationships: tips and techniques
for deepening your relationship with beasties and becoming more
receptive to their support * Beasties A-Z: an expansive compendium
of individual beasties and their unique qualities-including bats,
wolves, elephants, salmon . . . even unicorns and dragons! "A
message brought by a beastie may be about beauty or family or
work," teaches Sarah. "It might offer you guidance on a prickly
problem. Or it might make you smile just when you need it." Whether
you're a long-time shamanic practitioner or simply curious about
what secret messages your favorite animal might have for you, The
Book of Beasties is an ideal resource for discovering the wild and
wonderful world of spirit animals.

Ambika Wauters explores how linking classic archetypes to the seven
chakras in the human energy system can reveal unconscious ways of
behaving and serve as a valuable tool for transformation and
healing. Archetypes, which Carl Jung defined as “patterns of
behavior,” have emerged out of the core of human experience—the
Mother and the Victim, the Lover and the Actor, the Warrior and the
Servant.
In CHAKRAS AND THEIR ARCHETYPES, Wauters shows that creating
healthy archetypes is both liberating and fundamental to our
well-being. In relating the archetypes to the chakras, she guides
us on a journey to understand where our energy is blocked and which
attitudes or emotional issues are responsible. Using a variety of
exercises, meditations, and affirmations, she helps us to free
ourselves from the negative archetypes, enabling us to rise to
higher levels of awareness and empowerment—where we can transcend
limitations, make healthy choices, release creativity, heal our
pasts, and live with joy, vitality, and love.
A Reader for Navigating the Depths of Our Lives The Universe holds
us and tosses us about, only to hold us again. With Things That
Join the Sea and the Sky, Mark Nepo brings us a compelling treasury
of short prose reflections to turn to when struggling to keep our
heads above water, and to breathe into all of our sorrows and joys.
Inspired by his own journal writing across 15 years, this book
shares with us some of Mark's most personal work. Many passages
arise from accounts of his own life events-moments of "sinking and
being lifted"-and the insights they yielded. Through these
passages, we're encouraged to navigate our own currents of sea and
sky, and to discover something fundamental yet elusive: How,
simply, to be here. To be enjoyed in many ways-individually, by
topic, or as an unfolding sequence-Things That Join the Sea and the
Sky presents 145 contemplations gathered into 17 themes, each
intended to illuminate specific situations. The themes include:
Unraveling Our Fear, Beyond What Goes Wrong, The Gift of Deepening,
The Practice of Relationship, What Holds Us Up, Right-Sizing Our
Pain, The Reach of Kindness, Burning Off What's Unnecessary, How We
Make Our Way and many more. For those interested in either
beginning or expanding their own journaling explorations, this
reader also provides a guide to the practice of daily writing, with
100 compelling questions to get us started. "Joy is the sea that
holds all," writes Mark, "the Unity of Being where feelings don't
separate, but surface like waves to remind us we are alive." Here,
he helps us swim in those waters until we are held in the mystery
of their buoyancy.

An occult classic Since its first publication in 1908, The
Kybalion, Hermetic Philosophy by Three Initiates, has been in
constant demand by students and investigators of the Secret
Doctrines. It is a modern addition to the body of work devoted to
Hermes Trismegistus, an icon of ancient teachings that reveal the

Gender These principles complement other Hermetic teachings and
provide a foundation for your own spiritual awakening. As the book

understanding."

Integrating gemstone lore from around the world with modern mineral
science, Nicholas Pearson guides readers on a journey into the
inner realm of the mystery teachings of the mineral kingdom, a
journey that mirrors the soul's path to perfection. He reveals the
archetypal wisdom embodied within 7 essential crystal and gemstone
mentors--obsidian, jade, lapis lazuli, emerald, quartz, amethyst,
and diamond--examining each stone's mythological, historical, and
cultural associations in tandem with their crystalline structure
and chemical composition. He explores each stone's healing and
spiritual properties, providing practical exercises, esoteric
revelations, and meditations on the specific spiritual work each
stone archetype supports. Obsidian, for example, is the stone of
initiation, revealing our shadow side and guiding us to places in
need of light. Diamond, the final perfected stone of the seven,
illuminates Divine Love, purifying us and leading our consciousness
to enlightenment, cutting through any vestiges of fear or illusion
because it is the hardest, sharpest, most luminous teacher the
mineral kingdom has to offer.
This directory provides all you need to know about crystals for the
chakras, subtle energy bodies and raising kundalini. There are many
more chakras than the conventional seven that have traditionally
been in use. As the frequency of the human organism is raised,
additional chakras are opening up to assimilate higher dimensional
energy. This frequency uplift, and overall well-being, can be
facilitated by stimulating the rise of kundalini energy, which in
turn can be activated with appropriate crystals. However,
spontaneous kundalini awakening can be overwhelming. Fortunately
crystals have the answer. This new directory in the A-Z series
assists you to identify exactly the right crystal to release any
blockages and return the chakras to a state of equilibrium. This
will enable the higher chakras to open and controlled kundalini
rise to occur.
With the clarity of a physicist and the compassion of a gifted
healer with fifteen years of professional experience observing

Our physical bodies exist within a larger "body," a human energy
field or aura, which is the vehicle through which we create our
experience of reality, including health and illness. It is through
this energy field that we have the power to heal ourselves.
This energy body -- only recently verified by scientists, but long
known to healers and mystics -- is the starting point of all
illness. Here, our most powerful and profound human interactions
take place, the precursor and healer of all physiological and
emotional disturbances.
