What is it like to live in balance with the rhythms of the seasons and the voice of your heart? To wake up with the Sun and have the Moon be your calendar? To listen to the guidance of your dreams, the teachings of the animals, and the wisdom of the Ancestors? To intuitively know the truth in another’s heart? To dance to the Drum around the Sacred Fire? To move like a shadow and see what lies hidden in the forest? To know your reason for being and play a valued role in serving your people?
In this book, Tamarack Song takes you back to the way we all once lived, to give you an intimate feel for what it is like to be fully Human. Yet rather than leaving you to lament over what we no longer have, he shows you how to reawaken those latent abilities that enabled our ancestors to not only survive, but thrive. We are still intrinsically children of the Earth, says Tamarack, which makes us fully capable of again living with honor and respect, in harmony with all of Life.
