If you need some inspiration for your crafts, this book is great to get the wheels turning.” —Make: Magazine Long ago, many cultures regarded certain animals as reflecting a person’s true essence, as a link between this world and the spiritual realm. Today, this cosmic connection has become a cultural touchstone for a new generation. This illuminating book explains how to connect with and channel the unique powers of forty different spirit animals. Featuring a menagerie of creatures, from the wise owl and crafty fox to the tranquil turtle and bold lion, each entry provides a detailed description of the animal’s personality, mythology, and innate powers. Helpful text provides readers with clues and meditations for discovering their own spirit animal as well as information on how other animals can be called on to help with specific desires from overcoming fear to finding true love. Lavishly illustrated by a collection of cutting-edge artists, this book is the perfect primer for those seeking access to the primal wisdom of the animal kingdom.
