Spirituality
The Spirit of Intimacy
Sobonfu Some
An eloquent teacher who was chosen before birth by ancestral spirits
to preserve and teach the Dagara wisdom from West Africa, this
author leads workshops throughout North America and Europe guiding
students into a deeper understanding of ritual and community,
women's mysteries and the role of spirit in marital intimacy.
Her no-nonsense critique of modernity and her down-to-earth conveyance
of African teachings on love and community make this a straightforward,
humourous and sometimes painfully poignant read. $14.95.

Positive
Magic
Marion Weinstein
This book tells you everything you wanted to know about magic
but were afraid to ask. Magic is often associated with the negative
concepts of black magic. This is unfortunate because magic is
actually like a miracle. People have been trained to think that
miracles just don't happen. But they do happen. We must simply
learn to spot them and to expect them. Weinstein is a scholar
who offers us a very clear explanation of the knowledge system
that pre-dates science as we know it. She uncovers the roots of
magic in various traditions. Her discussions include topics such
as the Tarot, the I Ching, Karma, Words of Power, astrology, the
Kabbalah, alchemy and the gnostic tradition. $13.95.
