A great guide,
This review is from: The Conception Mandala: Creative Techniques for Inviting a Child into Your Life (Paperback)
This is an incredible guide for couples who wish to use creative techniques in the process of conception that goes beyond the physical aspect and into the spiritual. While the focus is on attracting the soul of your child, this book maintains a neutrality that allows you to truly be creative and fit with your own beliefs.
I bought this after buying "Conscious Conception: Elemental Journey Through the Labyrinth of Sexuality" by Jeannine Parvati Baker. While "Conscious Conception" is a hopelessly new age and fluffy book, "The Conception Mandala" is practical and well-written. I highly recommend it for anyone who believes that the process of conception is a spiritual process - regardless of religion or the lack thereof. I also recommend this for couples recovering from a previous pregnancy loss.
