3.0 out of 5 stars Earthtime, Moontime, Sacred Time for us!, December 30, 1999
This review is from: Earthtime Moontime: Rediscovering the Sacred Lunar Year (Paperback)
A facinating book about the phases of the moon and how they relate to us in our lives. The back of the book has a chart that desinates which of the thirteen moons ruled at the time of your birth. You can then read about that moon which has been assigned it's own chapter. Each moon discusses the goddess energies related to it, related energies, manifesting with those energies, the challenges of living with those energies, self-discovery journal for those born under that moon, and more. As you can tell it is very intense discussion.

Using this knowledge you can use the journal exercises to explore your own connection to the earth and to the wheel of the year. Learn to live in harmony with the Mother and life cycles. Recommended for students of the Craft who want to expand their horizons and begin to incorporate their spirituality into their lives as our ancestors did so very long ago!

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Guidance for Practical Application, January 5, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Earthtime Moontime: Rediscovering the Sacred Lunar Year (Paperback)
In Earth Time, Moon Time, Annette Hinshaw thoroughly explores and explains the meaning of each moon cycle and Sabbat in relation to life tasks consistent with the Wheel of the Year. Ms. Hinshaw provides specific questions to assist in spiritual growth and planning for each cycle. Ms. Hinshaw's presentation of the material is at times complicated and challenging to grasp. Rather than being read all at once, it should instead be used as a meditation and devotional guide in accordance with the Wheel of the Year. One can begin by reading the chapter that refers to the current time of year, taking the time to do the exercises at the end of the chapter. The reader could move through the book as they move through the year. Since the chapters are undated, the book can be used year after year as a valuable tool for spiritual growth.

5.0 out of 5 stars Radiant, November 30, 1999
By 
Kareth Bodman (Tulsa, Oklahoma) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Earthtime Moontime: Rediscovering the Sacred Lunar Year (Paperback)
Annette Hinshaw demonstrates how a fine mind can compile multitudes of information and hone the information into useful tools for 'everywoman'.

EARTHTIME MOONTIME, (ETMT), is at once an insightful and delightful application of concepts about reconnecting the self with nature. ETMT introduces ideas from the mundane to the spiritual in order to keep the self in synchronization with nature.

ETMT challenges the inquisitive reader to use new eyes when looking at the world. The author uses the earth as Mother, to teach that aligning ourselves with a lunar calendar and lunar wisdom will bring a balance to our solar experience of the world.

ETMT uses a scholarly approach to introducing the lunar calendar and how it operates. ETMT covers the history of calendar development, touches on the cosmology of the universe, and discusses the mythic facets of divine essence. The author brings solid definitions to the polarites of human nature and an evocative, rather than definitive look at self-knowledge.

Chapters are well organized and the reader will enjoy the engaging technique of the author. Chapters include: stages of the moon, seasonal festivals, moods of the lumination, states of the earth at each moon fall, image, reflection, and related energies.

The author considerately gives the reader a suggestion of keeping a self-discovery journal and provides questions that will provoke the reader to develop one's own insight for development.

ETMT is an excellent read for anyone on a path of self-discovery. Annette Hinshaw is a name to be aware of, her vision of the future is radiant. Enjoy
