A little late, but here is the quote of the week:  "Why do you take by force what you could obtain by love?" Wahunsonacock (Powhatan), 1547-1622

I have to agree with this!

Quote for the week--this was posted on Facebook today by Sacred Mists Shoppe:  Religion is for people who are afraid of hell. Spirituality is for people who have already been there. ~Running Hawk, Lakota Nation (Pine Ridge

Quote for the week:  You cannot wake a person who is pretending to be asleep. (Navajo proverb)

Thank you, David.  I also have The Medicine Wheel Earth Astrology, and agree that is worth reading.  I will add the others to my "want" list.

Earth Magic by Farmer is an excellent book and is highly recommended. In fact it is required reading for my Shrine. The others I have not read yet, and I would like to add

The American Indian Secrets of Crystal Healing by Luc Bourgault

Spirit Medicine by Wolf Moondance

The Medicine Wheel Earth Astrology by Sun Bear and Wabun (Which I think is the best of the three, gives a new prespective of Astrology with a Native American flavor, that is really indepth in its information)

I was looking through some of my books last night, and thought I'd list a few that might interest some of you.

Sacred Feathers by Maril Crabtree

Spirit Healing-Native American Magic & Medicine, by Mary Dean Attwood

Earthway by Mary Summer Rain

Earth Magic-Ancient Shamanic Wisdom by Steven D. Farmer (this author has also published a deck of Earth Magic Oracle cards)

All Women are Healers, by Diane Stein

There are many, many more books in my vast collection, and from time to time I will post them for your consideration.

Quote for the week: "The Creator made it to be this way. An old woman shall be as a child again and her grandchildren shall care for her. For only because she is, they are." (Handsome Lake, Seneca, 1735-1815)

Yes, Mary--I agree--a discussion on the various animal (and bird) totems is a great idea.  I will begin one today, and invite all members to contribute their comments and knowledge, as well 

Comment by Mary M. Nale on January 15, 2012 at 5:06pm

Joanne, do you think we could start talking about the different Animals in some way here?  I think many of us would love to get more information on our Animal Guides...I don't have any books on this yet :-(  But, I'm working on it!
