This book contains a wealth of meditations, visions and ceremonies on earth-based spirituality, including unique material never before published. Faery healing is a form of spiritual healing known in folkloric tradition and implies a working relationship between humans and the spiritual forces of the land or region in which they live. In this book, we begin with the folkloric foundation, but extend many of the ideas and techniques into remarkable new areas, previously unknown. Faery healing becomes, for the modern era, earth healing, a way of healing the wounded relationship between humanity and the planet. R.J. Stewart is a Scot, an author and a composer, now living in the USA, where he was formally admitted as a "resident alien of extraordinary ability," a category awarded only to those of exceptional and formally recognized achievements in the arts and sciences. His books have been published in many languages, and he is widely acknowledged as an authority on mythology, legends, magical arts and ancient traditions. As a composer, R.J. Stewart has written and recorded music for feature films, television and theater productions. His bestselling books include the Merlin Tarot, Celtic Gods and Goddesses, The UnderWorld Initiation and The Miracle Tree: Demystifying Qabalah.

This is one of the best books I've seen on working with faeries and faery healing. It's not a bunch of fluffy, cute stuff about fairies. It offers a viable lesson plan for developing a relationship with faery beings and for working together for the healing of Earth, humans, plants, and animals. Based on ancient tradition and practical experience, you will find tried and true ways to contact and work with the faeries.

RJ Stewart is one of those rare gifted individuals who brings forth the light of wisdom to mankind. " The Well of Light" is one such book. It's main focus is faery healing and it is a healing on a grand scale, healing a wounded world. This world is wounded thanks to commercialism, over production and pollution. This book does not spout the usual environmental jargon or even herald the greatness of taking on ecological projects.
The secret to healing this wounded world lies in contacting the faerie folk and working with them to heal the planet. RJ Stewart reminds to always beware the faeries are not our help mates or assistants. They are our partners, equal partners. Since they dwell on a different dimension somewhere beneath the Earth's surface there are things that they are able to do and things that we are able to do. We need to combine abilities and work together. To help us in this quest is a third partner, an animal. Animals contain a variety of abilities. The animal is our equal partner. Among the author's several warnings, there is one that speaks of animals. Do not expect your animal ally to be a tiger, wolf, lion or some other majestic animal. Your animal chooses you and it could even be a snail or a pill bug and what is wrong with an insect.
At the start of the book the author gives guidelines on how to use the book and he also gives several definition. Our faeries and animal allies have already been explained. But there is more. Transhumans like Thomas Rhymer, an actual person, act as go betweens and guides for mortals like us who want to traverse the realm of the fae. There are also elemental which is fire, water. air and land. They are not to be confused with nature spirits or faeries. Humans have all four elements in them as do faeries. Nature Spirits are different entities all together and sometimes they are confined to a certain area for example a tree spirit or a spirit of the valley The big shot though are the Titans, the Titan are the ones who cause all the earthquakes, volcanic eruptions and other disasters. This happens when mankind is out of sinc with the environment.
Anyone wishing to work with faeries would be well advised to read up on RJ Stewart. Not only does he use high quality scholarship in his teachings but he is a Scotsman who knows the European tradition of the Faeries and he does an excellent job drawing from that. He also uses information that he has learned from inner contacts ie Faeries. The Meditations are simple and easy to do, you can start using them as soon as you read them.
The book is about healing. For faerie healers, who by the way are different from any other healers, there are 7 different ways to heal. Some healers use stones, others use water. Then there are those who use allies,plants, living creatures, their hands and signatures. Signatures are powerful patterns.
It may be a short book but I learned lots. By the way there is a special symbology behind the two roses on the books conver. I will let you read it to find out. I did not even realize how much I learned until I finished. This one gets 5 broomsticks out of 5.

Although material information in the book is in coherence with basic views of the realms addressed, I found certain ideas negative and foul. The equating of the cutting of flowers to the sexual mutilation of an animal is both scientifically insubstantial and ludicrous. It is mentioned several times in the text. I have the sense that the author has some issues to work through. As an individual searching with sensitivity and respect into the realm of nature spirits, I found his statements in this area to be ridiculous. The realm of vegetation and flower is indeed to be respected, but if we are to take the authors view that to cut a flower is equivalent to sexual mutilation, we must cease to eat broccoli, carrots, and any other fruit or vegetable, for these too are the children or reproductive organs of the plant. Lighten up.
