Journey to the legendary Isle of Avalon and experience the magic, mysteries, and mysticism that have inspired women throughout the ages.

This book is not only connected to the Celtic-Avalonian archetype like no other, it takes its readers through a transformational journey of the soul. This book gives insights, lessons & tools for growth. Jhenah's style of writing is simply wonderful, she is concise and yet descriptive in a way that captivating. Her ability to bring you to her writing & connect with the archetype and landscape of Avalon is like no other I've read!! This is an amazing book for all people regardless of their spiritual persuasion. Her work & perspectives brings healing of the self into the for-front of connection with the Divine, the land, & most of all ourselves. I highly recommend this book for anyone on a path of healing to bring forth their sovereign selves.

This review is from: Avalon Within: A Sacred Journey of Myth, Mystery, and Inner Wisdom (Paperback)

Great book explaining the cycles we women go through, and the healing cycles within them. This book also gives the information one needs to know to get through the cycles and to understand just how important those cycles are to healing and growth. This is a book that is empowering in many ways, allowing one to arrive at self understanding on many levels. It shows clearly that there is a system to the universe, and if you work with it you can achieve results. It is a book I definitely recommend for those on The Avalonian Path, and particularly for those who are working with the Avalonian Cycles of Healing.
