Spirit Animals and the Wheel of Life Earth-Centered Practices for Daily Living

"Ecospiritualism" is a form of spirituality that embraces, and takes responsibility for, the natural world we live in. One way of reclaiming our connection with Mother Earth is journeying with the spirits of animals just as our ancestors did thousands of years ago. Animals, most intimately connect with Mother Earth, are the perfect guides to the ancient wisdom we have lost. Mole, eagle, badger, wolf, bear, mountain lion-each animal has its place on the sacred medicine wheel; each has knowledge vital to the future of our Earth and to rediscovering our rightful place in it. Author Bennett offers an accessible form of "spiritual orienteering" in which personal power animals are the guides and teachers, and shamanism is the means by which we work with and learn from them.--From publisher description.
