The Celts were not only great warriors but also a creative, peaceful and mystical people. Today we especially appreciate their imaginative myth-making, their brilliant design and their profound sense of wonder and magic: three elements that combine in this beautiful and inpsiring book.
This book captures the spirit of the druids and bards in a rich collection of poetic texts, spiritual insights, and meditative exercises that concentrate on the universal truths of Celtic wisdom–as meaningful and helpful today as they were in the Dark Ages. Discover how to heal using plants, how to cast spells, and how to travel safely in the Otherworld. Learn the secrets of King Arthur’s knights and the truth about the Holy Grail. By absorbing Celtic wisdom at the deepest level of our minds, we furnish our imaginations with beautiful and profound insights.Â
Lovely Little Book A light yet solid romp into the Celtic world. Artwork and photographs are both lovely. Not an in-depth study of the Celts, but efficient at touching on & explaining many major themes. Quality information provided in few words. Exercises included are relevant & not too “heavy.” I didn’t feel like the author was shoving “their” brand of Celticism down my throat.
Beautiful book to meditate on and read This little book is a little gem of knowledge and insight, and is a wonderful addition to the Celtic-lover’s library. Although the book isn’t a deep read or contain tons of information, what is does have is essential bits to contemplate and beautiful photographs to inspire. Definitely a worthwhile purchase.
A Hidden Treasure This book, the Celtic Inspirations by Lyn Webster Wilde, is a hidden treasure I found in the bookstore the other day. The pictures and art work displayed are so beautiful, unique and artistic. They are reflections of simple inspirations/teachings of the Celtic traditions.It is a book to ponder, a book to sit in and experience. Starring at just the pictures, drawings on its own while you are taking a bath can be soothing and relaxing.But if you are looking for a guide/book to explain things all, giving you a formula of fixing your life problems, this book isn’t for you. This book is more for a viewing pleasure and introduce calmness in life. Re-reading, re-starring the pictures can be a different way to meditate/calming the mind down from a hectic day.
