Badass Ancestors: Finding Your Power with Ancestral Guides
by Patti Wigington $16.99
Badass Ancestors provides a compelling series of rituals, meditations, mantras, and exercises to connect with ancestral guides.

The book includes crafts and recipes to help build your self-confidence, and overall badassery with your ancestors’ assistance.
When you develop relationships with your relatives – both blood, and those chosen by heart – and with spiritual or archetypal ancestors, you engage the process of healing trauma and achieving a deep sense of emotional and spiritual well-being.
The Book of Ho’oponopono: The Hawaiian Practice of Forgiveness and Healing
by Luc Bodin M.D., Nathalie Bodin Lamboy, Jean Graciet $14.95
In this step-by-step guide, the authors explain how to apply Ho’oponopono to traumatic past events, destructive thought patterns, family dynamics, daily annoyances, or any other disagreeable event in your life, from traffic jams to relationship break-ups. Drawing on quantum physics and epigenetics, they explore how Ho’oponopono works—how thoughts and consciousness can affect the expression of your DNA, the materialization of your goals, and the behavior of those around you. They explain how negative thought patterns and memories unconsciously guide your life and draw more negativity to you, perpetuating the cycle of bad events and clouding your recollection of the past. By apologizing to yourself, your memory, and the event in question, you can forgive yourself, heal your memories, and cleanse your perceptions. By reconciling with yourself, you open your heart to love for your experiences, yourself, and others and bring harmony to your mind, body, and the world around you.
Wild Soul Runes: Reawakening the Ancestral Feminine
by Lara Vesta $16.95
Using inquiry and original translations alongside traditional rune poems and sacred art, Wild Soul Runes invites readers to develop their own wisdom connection with the runes through practice. The book is based on the premise that all of us possess the ability to receive divine information through rune practice. Rather than telling the reader what the runes mean, author Lara Veleda Vesta shares an interactive practice for readers to discover the unique ways the runes speak to them.
The book covers the history of the runes, both in myth and through the connection with Old European archaeological findings. This history offers evidence for the idea that the runes have a feminine origin, coming from the well of the Norns, the female triple giantesses who represent the fates in Norse myth.
It introduces the concept of the runes as beings rather than simply an alphabet or magical tools. The purpose of Wild Soul Runes is to create a relationship with these beings through ancestral connection, personal gnosis, and ritual practice.
Readers will learn how to:
- Make a rune altar
- Develop a daily ritual practice with the runes
- Honor the Germanic/Anglo Saxon wheel of the year
- Craft a rune set and rune ceremonies for divination
