Love this Book

If you ever wanted to find a way to bring nature inside your home in a decorative and pretty way, I recommend this book. Very cool ideas to incorporate your earthcentered spirituality into your home. This is also good for folks who just want to do some decorating with items they can find anywhere in nature. Makes your home cozier.

Holly Coleman's monthly review Sept. 2008

To date this is the best book I have read on creating a conscious, loving connection to the earth and our surroundings. The book flows and is easy to understand for those not used to tuning into nature energy or feng shui. Ann Marie wants the reader to know they have the ability to work with energy and encourages us to feel free to explore the given techniques. You don't need to go to Findhorn or study feng shui for years to be effective. You can do this and it's fun! We do have the ability to make the connection; it just takes practice. The cures, ceremonies, and techniques presented in the book are definitely worth trying. I was instructed by "the fairies" to create a water feature on our front porch to flow more chi/energy into our home. The front door symbolically represents an individual's connection to the world. If the front door area is lifeless and blocked in some way, then the energy doesn't flow to the individual. The energy I am referring to translates to money, abundance of all forms, and even recognition by the outer world. I assembled the fountain using Ann Marie's tips and intention setting and then created a ceremony to bless the fountain and invite in the water spirits. The splashing water and plants give me a joyous feeling, and bring harmony and energy to our home. I actually like coming in and out of the front door. Since I set it up, my husband was chosen Employee of the Quarter and I am getting more social invitations. I'll keep you posted on how it's working. There is a lot of great information in this book about healing our earth and our environments. Besides recycling and going "green," I believe we need to make a spiritual connection to the earth. This book helps the average person do just that. For those of you who are Michael students, Ann Marie is a 4th Old Sage with a Scholar essence twin. Her goal is Growth, attitude of Spiritualist, mode of Observation and emotionally centered. She clearly has a big heart for mother nature.

Together these books have made my home toxic-free, beautiful and filled with vibrant positive energy. And, my personal life has never been better!

Learn how to sense with your heart and body and how to develop your "body radar." Learn about cures and ceremonies for your house and land. An easy-to-read book for both the novice and experienced person. I highly recommend Earth Spirit Living by Ann Marie Holmes.

Geomancy

Was really looking for more pictures of homes that have used the information, floor plans, and that type of thing, thus the only four stars. (Maybe I haven't read far enough into it yet.) However, I'm confident that the information presented will be used to help site a house I hope to build in the near future.
