Fantastic book. As with most of R.J. Stewart's books, if you use them as a map rather than an intellectual exercise, can lead you to powerful and meaningful experiences.

In this book, R. J. Stewart explores concepts of time as well as working with the spirits of the land and how all of that fits into the underworld tradition, and how it fits into doing work to heal the land and our connection to it. The exercises are useful for demonstrating how to work with all of these elements, but what I found even more useful was his detailed explanation of working with the spirits and how it applied to his tradition.

Closer to a 3.5. I can't say I liked this book, I'm not sure if it is because I didn't read Earth Light (the first part of this book series) or if it is because it is not something that I might consider in my own path.

I could not do the exercises very well, and that is definitely my own fault. I can't sit still long enough...
