ANCIENT SPIRIT RISING
|
|
In a globalized society predicated on forgetting and displacement, Ancient Spirit Rising is a bold reminder that our modern lives are still a chapter of an old, enchanting story whose final pages are yet to be written. Pegi Eyers does not flinch in facing down the complexities of our current global crises of identity, ecology, and essential meaning. Rooted in a deep respect for the many threads woven into the realities of 21st century planet Earth, this book fearlessly strikes a chord and bursts into a song that is willing to guide even the utterly lost through a night whose day is long overdue. https://milegaiscioch.wordpress.com
