Book summary

Edain McCoy teaches readers how to tap into the power of the unknown world with this powerful entry in the Llewellyn's Magic series. The focus here is magical pathworking, which involves the creative visualization of one's inner self as an actual inner landscape. (In Celtic philosophy, this landscape is as vast and mysterious as the world without). When a trail is blazed through the undiscovered country of our true nature, then we are better able to tap into the powers within and without, and thus access the powerful magic of the Celts. The book also comes with many handy references, including a dictionary of male and female gods and heroes, guides to Celtic music, merchants, clothing, recipes, recommendations for further reading, and elements for spell construction. The book is illustrated in a lovely, faux woodcut style lending McCoy's engaging text an evocative flavor and mystery.
