This is David Spangler's fourth anthology of stories. They were written to send to family and friends at Christmas time, so they share themes appropriate to the Holiday. However, they are stories celebrating the wonder that exists in the world around us every day of the year, so they are not simply Christmas stories. Mostly, they are meant to entertain and bring joy. If they also inspire a moment of thoughtfulness about the magic of life, then they have more than fulfilled their intent. each story has a B&W cover illustration. the book is 186 pages

This book honors two of the great Irish poets, William Butler Yeats and George William Russell (AE). At the same time it highlights the reality of the Sidhe (or Faery). It is a joy of to bring attention to these two notable souls and their outstanding contributions to Faery connections. The hope is to create an awareness of the partnerships we can make with our close relatives in the Otherworld as we unfold our own inner and mostly forgotten Sidhe-nature. In collaboration, we can contribute to the healing of our stressed planetary home and in the process help restore ourselves to wholeness.

Everyone''s Parkinson''s disease path is a unique journey to the moments before passing. These moments are almost always shared with others, especially caretakers, family and dear friends. Here one may find oneself asking the same question Ed faced throughout his life on this planet: "What happens when I can no longer be conscious, but my body and altered mind live on?" This book brings the reader through Ed and Claire''s journey to the edge of life, beyond Parkinson''s disease.- Claude Pepin, Spring, 2021

The insights in this book are excerpts from Dorothy Maclean's many "messages" from the voice of her inner divinity and the angelic realms of nature. The art expresses her sensitivity to the beauty and sacredness of our world. Both as an artist and a poet she draws us into the rhythm, flow and magic possible when we awaken to Love and give it expression through our daily life. Enjoy the quotes and paintings as she shares her celebration of the spirit within matter, as one window into the heart and energy of life. Honor them by allowing them to draw you more deeply into your own relationship with Love and the Sacred in Life.

“There are many fine books about working with our etheric cousins, the Sidhe, but few that show us from the inside out what such a partnership can be like.  Drawing on her own experiences, Anne Gambling offers us this perspective.  Using a bard’s creative skill with prose and poetry, her words, known and invented, draw us deep into the heartspace and worldspace of a Sidhe-human alliance, partnering with Gaia and singing the songs of sacredness echoed by all life around us.  This is not a book simply to be read but an experience which we can inhabit and which can enrich us in so doing.” David Spangler, author of Journey into Fire, Subtle Worlds, Card Deck of the Sidhe, Working with Subtle Energies, Apprenticed to Spirit, Conversations with the Sidhe and many others.

With authenticity and honesty, Claire Blatchford writes from the heart of her experiences in facing the challenges of living with Parkinson's Disease as it has been manifesting in the body of her husband, Ed. In so doing, she gives us a book that is not only informative and helpful for anyone else navigating these same challenges but one that is healing as well.I believe this book offers the invaluable gift to anyone dealing with Parkinson's, either directly as a patient or indirectly as a caregiver, of being seen, heard, and understood. It leaves you feeling that you're not alone. This in itself makes this book worthwhile for anyone dealing with this disease.But Claire does more than this. Through the largeness of her own spirit, she enables any of us to feel, whether Parkinson's Disease is part of our life or not, that we are not alone, period. Claire is a beautiful writer whose skill with words and images I admire and envy, but she is more than this. In showing us the spirit we all have within us, connecting us to the wholeness of life, Claire is a healer, which makes this book a healer's gift.

This book celebrates trees, but takes us far beyond most viewpoints offered on the topic. Here, Don Nichol marshals the latest scientific research as well as ancient insights to reveal the crucial contribution of trees-how they benefit in so many ways the physical world where they're rooted and the subtle energetic realm that connects everything on Planet Earth.Citing science, traditional wisdom and the experiences of some remarkable people, Don draws attention to the interconnectedness of all living things and to the endless and indispensable roles of trees in preserving life on EarthThis book contains 188 pages with forty-four beautiful black and white photos.

“Techno-elementals” are subtle beings that align themselves with human technology and artifacts. This book explores the emerging life of technology, It describes some of the effects the technological environment has on our humanity and the dangers and opportunities that lie ahead. To understand techno-elementals, we need to stretch into unfamiliar territory—to see the subtle realms as an ecosystem and subtle beings as living organisms. This writing seeks to introduce people to the reality, the wonder, and the naturalness of the non-physical world around us. 

This is my third anthology of stories. Because each of them was written as a Christmas present for family and friends, all six stories have a Christmas theme. But Christmas to me is a time of wonderment, so I think of these really as stories of wonder. They all have an element of magic to them, but then so do our lives. So really these stories are about who we are when we look beneath the surface of our lives and of our everyday world. They each arise from my sense of who we are as human beings and as spiritual beings. At Christmastime, we may come closest to touching the wonder of our deeper selves, but this experience is available to us any time, not just once a year.So I think of these stories as more than just Christmas tales. My hope is that whenever you read them, they will brighten your heart and bring delight to your day. May you experience in reading them all the joy I felt in writing them.David Spangler, November, 2015

The author tells the tender, sometimes horrifying present lived without language, visions of an uncertain future, and unexpected creativity from the chaos. To speak at all was to locate the fewest words to express anything. Returning to language and writing the author uses spare sensory language in vivid touching ways to evoke her experiences for the reader. Non-verbal languages are surprising and transformative parts of her journey through art, music, body practices, and mysticismThese Tales are for anyone who loves a journey, stories that incite the imagination, to experience the unthinkable. These are Tales for those have calamitous chaotic events and illnesses in their lives who yearn to see affirmation that life is, in fact, possible, with possibilities not dreamed, despite circumstances.
