Wondrous

Finally! I love learning about pre-christian traditions and history! Cultivating and expanding on a love for the earth and nurturing wonder in just being has resonated throughout my life, even before I had words to describe why.

In this book, the narrator enunciates words in many different Celtic tongues. The topics cover all of the elements and how to live in balance with them. It encourages respect of all traditions, people, and places.

I will probably listen to this again and again and maybe get a hard copy for reference. I’m so glad this book exists!

Wonderful content but a little sleepy

I enjoyed the book and while the narrarator's voice is pleasant, her tone is unwavering and a bit dry making the whole book seem like one, very long sentence. After awhile I found it increasingly difficult to keep my attention on the book. Overall I'd recommend it, just partake in small doses.

A good book.

This book has a good summary of information. It has many interesting bits that are new to me. It doesn’t have obvious sources. It is well narrated but can begin to feel dry. I enjoy the information, but the warnings start to frustrate me. Overall I have had a positive experience, and the sentiment of the book is well said!

The reader is off putting

I was so excited to listen to this. The reader switching accents is distracting and not even very good. I quit listening after 2 chapters.

enjoyed jt

had a lot of great info. I do wish I got the physical book to follow along with, but that's just my personal preference so I had it to look back on in hand. I'll very likely buy the physical copy of this. really enjoyed it overall though

Narration

Loved the content. Beautiful ideas. The narration did let it down, it was pretty monotone and I struggled to connect the wonderful message of the book with the boring teacher voice of the narrator. I could sense that the narrator was just reading text and not feeling/understanding/believing in the spirituality. Each to their own, but this book deserved a more connected narrator, I feel.

Interesting and very strange indeed

Lovely poetic ideas, which are calming and musical. The sounds of Celtic languages are very charming .I’m not sure that most of the ideas wouldn’t be received with derision by most modern people however. I didn’t find the narrator inappropriate at all. Her pronunciation of various sources seems very pleasing, and if she were too ‘woo woo’ in style it would make the subject matter even more peculiar.

Great book but narrator sounded a bit like a school teacher

Excellent well researched and written book - just a little let down by the narrator who sounded a bit like a stern school mistress. Otherwise loved it all.

Everything I needed it to be.

Jennifer Dixon was such a wonderfully engaging reader. It was easy to forget that she was not in fact the author, so deep was her own resonance and intimate her understanding of the content.

Danu Forest has created a brilliant, thorough and reverent insight into Celtic practices and lore. She takes care to ensure that the knowledge contained is inclusive and respectful of laws and cultures outside of her own, yet still conjures a vivid and very specific image of each topic.

Absolutely my go-to handbook for introductory magickal practice. I will be referencing this many times in the future, I am sure.

Very grateful this book exists.

Traditional practises

This book is suitable for everyone who is interested in strengthening their magic. I have taken away the need to back into nature more.

Great but one to get as a digital or physical copy

This is a really lovely book. I feel harsh only giving it 3 stars, it is deserving of at least 3.5. While the narrator's voice is just gorgeous, it is a bit of a bore in the parts that are more of a reference guide. I almost DNF but got through it after speeding up the reading speed to 1.5x.

I really appreciated the common sense approach to safety and relevant examples of how you can bring more nature into your every day life. Also loved the clear direction away from culturally appropriating practices that are not yours.

I think it's definitely a good book to have in your collection as a physical or digital copy so that you can refer to specific sections when you need certain information.
