Description

Many of us long for a re-greening of the land and our own spirits. Here is a way of experiencing such a resurgence, a wholesome home-grown spirituality whose teachings have been revealed to Rosa Romani by her own heart and the energies of the land, rather than by external authorities. Rosa blends the practical aspects of how to walk our spiritual paths as those who love the land with descriptions of her Otherworldly journeys and meetings with faeries and other beings. She shows us how to explore the magic inherent in the midst of modern life for positive purposes, encouraging us to travel to the greenwood of the soul to find the truths we need to walk lightly on the Earth Mother in an increasingly hectic age.

Review

Green Spirituality is a book that offers the reader with an interest with the environment and environmental issues the opportunity to blend that awareness with their own individual spirituality. It begins by offering ways for us to contact the spirits of the land and leads us gently through ways to interact more intimately with the natural world around us. She offers us ways to work with the energies of sun and moon, yet encouraging us to find our own personal path. There is no doctrine in this book, no formulaic recipes for herbal cures, or magical potions. Instead it manages to fuse practical possibilities for action with a growing awareness of spirit. And in fostering deeper awareness of all that we do, this book will sometimes make you feel a little uncomfortable as it reminds the reader of the things we take for granted, yet which impact on nature, the world and the creatures who inhabit it with us. The author shows a rare gift in being able to meld the poetic and practical, offering us greater understanding of all that we do, and its spiritual and environmental impact.

I highly recommend it.
