Rituals of Celebration: Honoring the Seasons of Life through the Wheel of the Year

I had the great good fortune of taking a course in person with Jane, and I can tell you that not only is this book a delight -- with absolutely wonderful ideas for celebrating the turn of the wheel -- but Jane herself is the real deal. She is a woman of spiritual depth, learning and wisdom -- and yet she doesn't take herself too seriously and does a lot of heartfelt laughing. And that's the mark of a truly reliable spiritual teacher, right?My women's spiritual circle used her Yule ritual pretty much exactly as it is in the book, and many of us felt it was one of the most powerful we'd ever done. I love that her ideas and thinking about rituals -- and their significance -- is not "fluffy bunny." In my view, ritual is an important time to experience and re-align ALL of the self, not just the light parts, but all of the parts loved and respected and nurtured equally. Jane's book is an excellent, balanced guide in that work.Oh, and the writing is very good as well!

I had been hoping for a more general book on pagan celebration and ceremony. I write rituals and ceremonies for a small group of pagans/polytheists who come from a variety of spiritual backgrounds but like to come together for holidays and events.This book is straight Neo-Wicca. There isn’t anything wrong with Neo-Wicca but I am a druid and there isn’t anyone in our group who practices any kind of Wicca or Wiccan derived practice.I am disappointed but at least I can mail it to a friend who is Neo Wiccan.

Another good book to have in your collection if you do rituals. This one got my creative juices flowing that had been blocked for a few yrs.

The author is so creative and imaginative! I love her accounts of the traditions and it is well put together.

This was a wonderful book. Lots of information about the different holidays as well as other celebrations. Thoughtful ideas as well.

Came in good condition. Mint. No problems I see. Very insightful book.

Outstanding guidelines for creating rituals.
