Book excerpt: Many people believe you have to be a pagan to appreciate and perform ritual, which is untrue. For thousands of years people have been drawn together to dance, make music, pray and feast, these activities are all the parts of ceremony. The ceremonies in this book are designed to help you become more attuned to yourself, others and nature. You don't have to be a pagan, you don't have to be a shaman or witch, you can be just you with your imagination and a desire to learn and discover. Ritual is the process of taking time out from the rush of life to connect with what you consider sacred. Performing ceremony properly means slowing down and being in the moment without thinking about yesterday or worrying about tomorrow. The ceremonies contained within this book are unique for they are a merging of two powerful nature based belief systems the Cree and the Celtic. The result of the blending is the symbol of spirit and nature dancing in perfect harmony. This book is for the beginner, the explorer, the type of person who wants to learn and have fun with people. It is also for the experienced pagan who would like to have some fresh ideas for ritual.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I returned to the village after a time away at university and, seeking out my old friend, I came instead upon a mystery: Adam's cottage, his garden, and Adam himself were nowhere to be found. The author and minister Frederick Buechner wrote that "in one way or another, man comes upon mystery as a summons to pilgrimage." And so it was for me. To find my friend, or at least solve the riddle of what had become of him, I embarked on a new journey of discovery. Filled with shamanistic insights and magical experiences, this spiritual memoir tells the true story of Ross Heaven's search for Adam Dilwyn Vaughan. The enigmatic Adam, who introduced Heaven to the lost art of sin eating and other Celtic traditions, left him a gift—his journal. As Heaven travels on the dragon path, he explores the mysteries of the Holy Grail, encounters spirit healers, and experiences an incredible vision of the earth oracle. His fascinating journey ultimately leads to powerful revelations of his life purpose and the fate of humankind. This guide includes a sin eater's workbook of simple Celtic divination, dreamwork, and intuitive practices.
