Dark Moon Mysteries: Wisdom, Power and Magick of the Shadow World - Softcover

Most books on spirituality and empowerment avoid addressing the psyche's darker aspects--even though claiming this darkness can be vital to becoming a whole, integrated, empowered person. Now, Dark Moon Mysteries shows how to tap one's inner power and move beyond fears and limitations by understanding the "dark side" of spirit, ritual, symbol, psyche, and magic.

Look deeply inside yourself and you may find that there is a dark, shadowy part you do not, or perhaps cannot, deal with. Psychologist C. G. Jung called this "the Shadow" -- that part of ourselves which holds the fears, emotions, and memories of our lifetimes. Hidden behind that shadow is a world of wonder and amazement, of beauty and wisdom. Now you can discover how to tap into this information with Timothy Roderick's "Dark Moon Mysteries." This book supports Jung's belief that many fairy tales have archetypal aspects. Thus, you will read stories that, like parables, provide a means of understanding how to confront your shadow. You can then begin to assimilate the good things which lie beyond your shadow, while purging what you no longer want. Also included are rituals, information, and other techniques to help you come to terms with the shadow. This process continues as you explore the power of "Dark Moon Mysteries." Learn to develop personal power through such activities as dance, trance, and more. Discover rituals and the functions of the elements. Finally, put it all together as you learn spells, including ways to diminish your poverty, end a relationship, contact your ancestral spirits, and overcome sickness. Discover divination methods that use cards, a magic mirror, and a black bowl. You can never truly claim enlightenment until you also claim your darkness. Turn to face your shadow, and you will find a source of untapped power, peace, and balance. "Dark Moon Mysteries" is a must for covens and solitary practitioners.
