| Summary |
"Ceremony is a central part of human life and spiritual practice, yet in todays world, many of our ceremonies have become rote or superficial. Thats why shamanic teacher Sandra Ingerman has created The Book of Ceremonyto help us recover the sense of deeper meaning and sacred connection that makes ceremony a powerful tool for transformation and healing. Ceremonies have always been used to create transformation, writes Ingerman. Performing ceremonies creates a bridge between the material world we live in and the world of the unseen, the divine, the power of the universe. In this practical guidebook, Ingerman shares essential instruction for ceremonies that combine the power of your intention, the support of family and community, and the aid of the spirit world. Join her for this invaluable guide for adapting traditional wisdom to create ceremonies for modern practitionersincluding rites of adulthood, sacred marriages, the Prayer Tree ceremony for blessing communities, and many more."-- netgalley.com |
