My third book from this store and this one might be the best. Some sections stopped me cold in the best way. Recommended with reservations.
Took a chance on this and glad I did. I found myself reading passages aloud just to sit with them.
My third book from this store and this one might be the best. The ideas are old but land with surprising force today. A few pages arrived with light corner wear, though nothing serious.
Hughes successfully transforms a classic tale into a living practice, offering a unique entry point for those drawn to Celtic tradition. The yearlong ritual structure provides a clear framework for cultivating inner vision. However, readers seeking dry historical analysis or purely theoretical folklore will likely find this work too practical and esoteric. It is not suited for those who prefer detached observation over participatory magic. Instead, it demands active engagement with archetypes to reshape one’s spiritual reality, making it ideal for practitioners ready to forge their own prophetic spirit through immersive ritual work.
