⭐ Reader reviews
Reader rating
Moore provides a compelling, accessible guide to megalithic sites, successfully arguing for their continued relevance in modern spiritual practice. The revised edition clarifies ancient traditions of healing and wish fulfillment, making them approachable for the contemporary seeker. However, readers seeking rigorous archaeological data or purely academic historical analysis will find little here; this is a practical manual for energy work, not a scholarly text. It may also disappoint those who prefer strictly textual rituals over landscape-based engagement. Ultimately, it serves best for the spiritually curious who want to interact directly with the Earth's physical manifestations of power.
