About this listen
At the root of most spiritual traditions is the aspiration to realize one's birthright: the intimate connection with the land and the spiritual energies that inhabit it. This connection with the land and its spirits is perhaps nowhere more powerfully felt than in the various traditions of paganism and witchcraft. But the conditions of modern society strain that relationship, leaving us feeling disconnected to our craft and unable to feel that deep and vital connection.
In Alive with Spirits, which is based on Althaea Sebastiani's popular online course, you'll discover a path to fully embrace a world filled with spirits, communion with the land, and a greater sense of belonging in the world-a worldview known as animism. You'll explore animism in a hands-on way that teaches through firsthand direct experiences. Through embodied exercises based in wholeness, you'll learn to see the world more fully for what it is and to better understand your place in it.
Alive with Spirits will provide you with a firm foundation from which to transform your witchcraft practice, rooting it into the land and in strong, respectful relationships with the spirits around you.

Story
When you separate the religious dogma from the symbolic nature of Christianity's ultimate rebel, who really is the Devil? Kate Freuler presents this infamous figure as a symbol, not a deity, and reveals how you can use this radical philosophy to strength yourself and your witchcraft. The Devil represents rebelling against all-powerful, oppressive systems of any kind. Through historical references, religious writings, and even pop culture, this book explores the intersection between witchcraft and the rebel archetype.

The yearning to slow down and simplify, return to the earth, and maybe even “rewild” what has been tamed in ourselves persists even though that dream may seem ever more remote in contemporary life. Danielle Dulsky shows that even in our high-tech and high-pressure lives, it is possible to manifest your own “year of the wild” and to tap into often-forgotten holy wisdom. Seasons of Moon and Flame guides you to live cyclically while working with the archetype of the Sacred Hag, or wild grandmother, who appears in various guises.

Is darkness synonymous with ignorance and evil? Or is it the original matrix from which all life emerges, and the Mother to whom it returns? Higher and higher levels of artificial illumination have suppressed our contact with the numinous since the Industrial Revolution, with dire consequences for society, our planetary ecology, and our souls. This mystical testament weaves together paleobiology, memoir, history, science, and spiritual archaeology to lead listeners back into the lost mysteries of the dark.

One of the best books on the subject!

This book gives a solid foundation for how to shift your worldview to one that prioritizes being in right relationship with all beings.
I absolute loved it and cannot wait to read through it again and incorporate the exercises into my own practice more fully.
The inclusivity of the exercises
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
lots of material that is seldomly written about elsewhere- but then again, lots of material that is.
great book on worldview making it a more advanced book on witchcraft/paganism… so i dont know why they include about two hours of run time for the type of beginner exercises ive been skipping through since my first witchcraft audiobook
adding to the list of publishers to stop taking seriously.
idk why my review is under “anonymous” my name is Alejandro, you could call me handrx.
great book on worldview
