The Celtic way of seeing posits a direct link between the eye and the heart, a link that connects seekers to forces, energies, and knowledge that exist beyond the corporeal world. Here, Frank MacEowen explains this intuitive way of seeing by retelling a traditional Irish story, "The Settling of the Manor of Tara." The story is essential because it introduced to Irish culture the concept of the four directions — north, south, east, and west. For the Irish, just as for Native Americans, the directions act as guides and protectors. Once seekers learn to “see” the directions, spirituality becomes a living thing, making each seeker not just an observer but a participant. After retelling the ancient story in beautiful, prose evocative of ancient Ireland, MacEowen then places its wisdom in contemporary terms, and shares exercises and practices that help readers incorporate the teachings into daily life.

Frank MacEowen, MA, is the author of three books on Celtic spirituality: The Mist Filled Path, The Spiral of Memory and Belonging, and The Celtic Way of Seeing: Meditations on the Irish Spirit Wheel. After years of facilitating group retreats and overseas travel journeys exploring Celtic spirituality and ecopsychology, Frank turned inward and spent a decade studying East Asian hermit poetry and solitary contemplative Nature spirituality with a wisewoman in New Mexico. He continues to explore and integrate these many themes, East and West, in his work as a poet, publishing poetry under the name Frank LaRue Owen / Hawk of the Pines.
