personal and professional work. This is a fascinating and powerful exploration
of symbols and universal meanings. Angeles Arrien is one of many women

creativity and fun. $26.50
Herbal Healing
Healing Wise
Susan Weed
Susan, in WonderWorks' opinion, is one of the foremost herbalists of
the past 100 years. She has made a magnificent contribution to the progressive
thought related to healing and how it actually occurs in the body. She
knows, for instance, that healing involves activities such as the stories
we tell each other, and that full healing heals our community and the
planet as well as ourselves. These topics and others are covered in
her dissertations on the scientific, heroic and wise woman traditions
of healing. This book is for anyone who has or is considering taking
the journey of healing.
The book includes chapters on only
seven (yes! only seven) plants, and shows what marvelous healing can
be accomplished with these. Susan has each plant speak for itself as
she takes you on a weed walk in order to teach you how to find it along
with its uses and recipes. These new-found relationships are certain
to thoroughly excite the reader. Last, but not least, the book contains
Susan's exellent section on picking and preparing your own herbs.
Susan's first book is also available:
The Wise Woman Herbal for the Child Bearing Years. Don't let
the title fool you -- this book contains valuable information for everybody,
and is in constant use in our house.

Creating Sacred Space with
Feng Shui
Learn the Art of Space Clearing to Bring New Energy Into your
Life
Karen Kingston
A centuries old Chinese practice,
Feng Shui has captured the Western imagination as a tool for design
and well being. Kingston has developed her own system of Feng
Shui, with techniques for clearing, purifying and energizing spaces.
She enlivens the work with her sense of the sacred and draws on
the everyday practices of her neighbours in Indonesia where where
she lives half-time. She gives you the basics of the Chinese grid
system (the bagua) which will enable you to identify which areas
of your home or office relate to different areas of your life.
Her advice is good: she concentrates on how to clear and consecrate
your home, the benefits of a clutter-free existence, and the art
of placement to create abundance in all areas of our lives. $22.95

Clear Your Clutter With
Feng Shui
Karen Kingston
Her second book has been a
runaway best seller at WonderWorks. Kingston received so many
letters and questions from people about her chapter on clutter
in Creating Sacred Space that she decided the topic needed a whole
book. Clearing out the unnecessary is not an easy task. There
are emotional and psychological reasons why all of us hang on
to our stuff in more ways than one. Sensitive to that, Kingston
encourages you through the process. Encourage is the word since
it does take courage to move along in life and leave behind all
that no longer serves us. $14.95

Beautiful Necessity: Art
and Meaning of Women's Altars
Kay Turner
"The age old task
of religious art has been to bridge the division between the sacred
and mundane, the spiritual and the material, the Self and the
Other. We now live in a time when this division is at its most
extreme, but from the very beginning of human consciousness, a
particular religious art form has assuaged the terror of separation
by creating a special site to serve the human desire for relationship
with he unseen gods and spirits. We call the place an altar, a
place set apart to house the images of powerful sacred beings,
who by their presence there can be called upon for help and comfort...
it marks the potential for communication and exchange between
different but necessarily connected worlds, the human and the
divine." $29.99

Tarot
 "The Tarot is a symbolic map of consciousness
and an ancient book of wisdom that reveals to us visually and symbolically
the creative ideas and states of consciousness that appear in multiple
existences in all cultures. The seventy-eight symbols are portraitures
and archetypes of inner and outer experiences that are prevelant within
human experiences... Over and over I saw the synchronicity of symbols
accurately mirroring people's current issues."
-- Angeles Arrien,

Inner and Outer Space:
The Astrological Language of the Psyche
Carolyn Casey
Until the scientific "revolution,"
astrology and astronomy were taught together at the university.
With wit and scholarship, Casey beautifully reveals what ancient
people knew: that all life and matter are universally connected
and that astrology is a rich, deep language through which we can
communicate with the heavens. You don't have to be an astrologer
to love these tapes. She offers many simple rituals that can connect
us subconciously to the energies of the planets daily, so that
we move with the stars and not against them. "Astrology can
provide us with the mythic language we yearn for to help us make
sense of the times we are moving through." Six cassettes.
A full course in astrology. $69.95
