Description
Book SynopsisLong ago, mystics believed that along with every renewal of the phases of the Moon came shifts within the souls of all stones, plants, animals, and yes, even humans. This book highlights these shifts and explains how we are affected by them, how to tap into them for wholesome living, and how to engage obstacles we might encounter along the way. Drawing from a rich treasury of ancient Hebraic mystery wisdom and her many years of experience as a spiritual healer and counselor, Miriam Maron introduces us to the remarkable interplay between the months of the yearly cycle and tribal archetypes in the Hebraic tradition. She discusses each month's corresponding animal, mineral, and plant totems. In Ancient Moon Wisdom, one will discover important life lessons from the histories and mythologies surrounding these archetypes and the deeper meanings behind each of their corresponding monthsall of which will prove helpful in one's personal unfolding.
