Rooted in the Stars, Planted on the Earth: One Woman's Path to Embodied Mysticism

by Annette M. Hulefeld

We come from a Source that is rooted in the stars - but we’re planted on the Earth, with all of its loneliness and grief. So, how can we find our way back to that original wellspring? With her teachings that weave together the psychological and spiritual dimensions of life, Annette Hulefeld is a spiritual mentor for the modern age.

As her own story reveals, many of us feel a pervasive sense of worthlessness because of separation from our own Divine nature; the split of our human nature from Soul. In a lively, engaging narrative, Hulefeld shows us how a girl who grew up Catholic in a family challenged with poverty, abuse, and mental illness found a mysticism that brings body and Soul together again.

Rooted in the Stars is a timely and personal story that will resonate with everyone carving their own path to a modern spirituality.

[Tamar Frankiel · Rating 4 out of 5]

A remarkable story of a woman who faced down mental illness over and over again, deepening her encounter with the darkness and exalting when she discovered the light, until at last she understood that she had been missing, all those years, her connection with the Divine Feminine. With her rich and beautiful writing style, Annette Hulefeld leads us through her tortuous family life, psychological investigations, shamanic and spiritual initiations, and ultimately finds her compass in what she so aptly calls "embodied mysticism." Most of all, she shows us that there is no simple path, nor a magic fix; nor does mature spirituality protect one from illness or accident; but there is continuous unfolding of rich and profound connection to life in its fullness.
