Primordial Meditation and Walking with The Sidhe

This description is related to my article: Nordic Shamanism and Forest Therapy, and, The Hallowquest Products. 

This manual combines the two books accompanying the Moon Oracle of the Sidhe and The Sidhe Oracle of the Fleeting Hare (see below), into something unique and new. This is not an ordinary system, such as the tarot and the I Ching, where you simply lay out the cards and read for an answer. Here you will be working directly with the Sidhe themselves, through the medium of imagery and visionary words, and moving beyond these in many subtle and different ways. This book continues and extends John’s work began in his book, The Sidhe.

A set of 28 cards, each one bearing one of the glyphs to be found incised on stone all over the ancient Celtic world. Accompanied by inspirational messages, following those found in The Sidhe by John Matthews. These act as a means of contacting the power of the Inner Worlds and of invoking protection for the user. The glyphs have long been recognised as a form of symbolic language, dating from the neolithic up to the period of Celtic expansion across Europe and into Britain and Ireland. Here at last this language will be acknowledged, under the guidance of the Sidhe, as a vital tool for communication between the worlds and a means of seeking support on the journey of life.

 Inspired by the teaching of the Faery people of the Sidhe, and featuring stunning images of one of the most mysterious and sacred creatures from our ancient heritage, The Oracle of the Fleeting Hare is a companion oracle to John and Wil’s Moon Oracle of the Sidhe. The hare has been recognised in these islands as a magical creature since the time of the Celts, who acknowledged the goddess Andraste as its guardian. It is recorded that Boudicca, warrior queen of the Iceni, on the eve of her first great battle with the Romans, released a hare from beneath her skirts; observing where it ran, she predicted victory. Ever since there have been accounts of mysterious sightings – often of pure white and sometimes ghostly hares, sitting atop the summit of faery mounds or running though fields of standing corn as though impelled upon a journey of vital meaning. 20 full colour cards with an 80-page manual rich with insights from Celtic myth and methods of working with the Fleeting Hare and the Sidhe. It is a testament to the continuing collaboration between the Sidhe and humankind.
