Journey of Your Soul A Channel Explores the Michael Teachings
Written by Shepherd Hoodwin
Foreword by Jon Klimo and John Friedlander

Even at birth, everyone is unique. Can heredity alone account for the complex differences in people's temperaments and styles? The Michael teachings, an extraordinary body of channeled work, propose that we are each unique souls who deliberately take on a specific combination of traits to give us the experiences we seek. In this fascinating book, Shepherd Hoodwin expertly discusses these teachings from his vantage point as a Michael channel.

"Michael" is a group of souls who teach that we are eternal beings journeying from the Tao and back again in an adventure of exploration and creativity. Each step along the way, we make choices that shape our experience. For example, after committing to a series of lifetimes, we choose one of seven roles, or soul types: server, priest, artisan, sage, warrior, king, or scholar.

These teachings address many age-old questions, such as "How did we become who we are?" "Why are we here?" "Where are we going?" and "How does the universe work?" In addition, Journey of Your Soul sheds light on the channeling process itself, answering questions such as "How does channeling work?" "Why do different channels receive conflicting information?" and "What does it take to become a channel?" Hoodwin shows us that it is possible, and indeed beneficial, to engage all parts of the human consciousness. His unique analytical approach to channeling will help readers gain a firm intellectual understanding of what is involved.

In his foreword, Jon Klimo, PhD, author of Channeling: Investigations on Receiving Information from Paranormal Sources, says, "Shepherd Hoodwin has given us one of the best books to date about the phenomenon of channeling. Journey of Your Soul may well also be the best of the Michael books due to its clarity, thoroughness, and detail, and thanks to the fact that the author, an exceptionally clearheaded Michael channel himself, brings real integrity and authenticity to our understanding of Michael in particular and to the channeling process in general."

Cave and Cosmos by Michael Harner

Cave and Cosmos Shamanic Encounters with Another Reality
Written by Michael Harner

In 1980, Michael Harner blazed the trail for the worldwide revival of shamanism with his seminal classic The Way of the Shaman. In this long-awaited sequel, he provides new evidence of the reality of heavens.

Drawing from a lifetime of personal shamanic experiences and more than 2,500 reports of Westerners’ experiences during shamanic ascension, Harner highlights the striking similarities between their discoveries, indicating that the heavens and spirits they’ve encountered do indeed exist. He also provides instructions on his innovative core-shamanism techniques, so that readers too can ascend to heavenly realms, seek spirit teachers, and return later at will for additional healing and advice.

Written by the leading authority on shamanism, Cave and Cosmos is a must-read not only for those interested in shamanism, but also for those interested in spirituality, comparative religion, near-death experiences, healing, consciousness, anthropology, and the nature of reality.

Praise for Michael Harner and The Way of the Shaman

“What Yogananda did for Hinduism and D. T. Suzuki did for Zen, Michael Harner has done for shamanism—namely, bring the tradition and its richness to Western awareness.”
—from Higher Wisdom, by Roger Walsh and Charles S. Grob

“Wonderful, fascinating.… Harner really knows what he’s talking about.”
—Carlos Castaneda, best-selling author of The Teachings of Don Juan and The Active Side of Infinity

“An intimate and practical guide to the art of shamanic healing and the technology of the sacred. Michael Harner is not just an anthropologist who has studied shamanism; he is an authentic white shaman.”
—Stanislav Grof, author of The Adventure of Self-Discovery

“Harner has impeccable credentials, both as an academic and as a practicing shaman. Without doubt (since the recent death of Mircea Eliade) the world’s leading authority on shamanism.”
—Nevill Drury, author of The Elements of Shamanism

“Michael Harner is a great shaman. He also proves that a person can be both a scientist and a shaman.”
—Bo Bair Rinchinov, Siberian Buryat shaman

The Christ Letters by Theanna Lonsdale

The Christ Letters An Evolutionary Guide Home
Written by Ellias Lonsdale and Theanna Lonsdale

Before she died, Theanna (then Sara Lonsdale) developed a means to continue communication with her husband Ellias. Her words from beyond death's doors first appeared in The Book of Theanna, an introduction to the many realms of consciousness. Now Ellias has gathered and transcribed The Christ Letters, a collection of detailed accounts of Theanna's encounters with the Christ presence, transmitted at Christmas and Easter time over the course of several years. Drawing deeply on the feminine aspect of consciousness and framing her discussion around the astrological qualities of each of the seven classical planets, Theanna reexamines the figure of Christ and his teachings, exploding the myths imposed on Christ by church-based Christianity. What emerges is an unusual and inspirational account of the journey each one of us must take, from the darkest places of consciousness to eventual resurrection into the light of redemption.

Not just another account of life after death, nor a channeled book in the usual sense, The Christ Letters enacts a virtually ignored method of spiritual communication. Theanna's principal goal is to make her process available collectively so that from this point on, people will "discover inside their own strength of being a Christ presence, something unexpected and wildly unknown."

The Sirian Starseed Tarot
Written by Patricia Cori
Illustrated by Alysa Bartha

Visionary author Patricia Cori and metaphysical artist Alysa Bartha present a true tool of transformation, empowerment, and awakening—a must-have for serious Tarot readers, spiritual seekers, and starseeds everywhere. With The Sirian Starseed Tarot, they bring a new consciousness to the tried and tested realm of the Tarot. Weaving together the world-renowned teachings delivered through Cori’s best-selling books with Tarot traditions of the past, they bring a new interpretation of the exquisite journey of self-discovery hidden in the Tarot’s archetypal symbols and meanings.

Honoring the core structure of the time-proven Tarot and the wisdom of what has for centuries been portrayed in its pantheon, Cori and Bartha bring to light new perspectives upon its theater of characters—and the energies they represent. With 78 gorgeously designed, full-color Tarot cards—22 Major Arcana, 16 “court cards,” and 40 numbered cards (10 for each of four suits)—and a 96-page booklet explaining each card, this amazing deck allows card readers and their clients to work through the Tarot fundamentals on a higher level, helping them to achieve a multidimensional perspective on the meaning of their own lives and in relation to the immense changes that are occurring in our global societies and in the Earth’s own energy grids.

A work of creative inspiration and devotion to spirit, The Sirian Starseed Tarot addresses the growing fascination of many souls who are searching to understand their starseed origins and their purpose in the greater scheme of our cosmic evolution.
