Book Reviews of Celtic Shaman
Book Review: Disappointing
Summary: 4 Stars
I bought this book with high hopes about learning genuine Celtic shamanism. However, I quickly realized that the Celtic connection was tenuous at best. The author pulls out bits of Celtic myth and draws parallels with what we know of different types of shamanism or shamanistic experience, but for actual practice the author pulls from other sources such as Michael Harner and then gives the practices a Celtic gloss to create "Celtic shamanism."
I still give the book 4 stars out of respect for the authors effort at synthesizing Celtic mythology and shamanistic practice into a workable system that may inspire or aid spiritual seekers on their quest.
