Description

This book is a wonderfull resource for all things to do with pregnancy even if you arnt pregnant but want to be you will still get use out of this book. It is full of good ideas on how to deal with the Spiritual side it is pagan but not writen for a specific type. It is only available on the Kindle however. I have read it cover to cover but it is also a useful resource to dip into. The above link is to the Authors web page for you to find out more. This book is helping me loads I have used lots of the ideas and so forth (there will be blogs on other things that I will do linking back to this book) It is easy to use and has clear instructions and you can so as much or as little as you like. I would recoment this book to other friends. I would rate this book at about 7 out of 10 as the downside is that the Author couldnt get it as a book and though she is hoping to make it available to other e readers I feel that there is a lrge group of people who are missing out on this little gem of a book.

"When pregnant, you become the very essence of the Mother Goddess-she who transitions from maiden to mother. Embark on this sacred journey with special guided meditations, affirmations, and rituals. Designed to help you attune to the divine energies of childbearing, Passages: Pagan Pregnancy shows you how to:
  • Prepare spiritually for this extraordinary time
  • Conduct rituals to aide conception, safe pregnancy, and easy delivery
  • Practice responsible magick during these critical nine months
  • Deal with unexpected developments as well as miscarriage
The first book of its kind, Pagan Pregnancy is the perfect companion to prepare you to take on the most magnificent-and magickal role of your life."
