Excerpts from Jumping Mouse...

“Once we begin to listen with our hearts, we must expect inner changes and, in all probability, outer changes as well. The world we consider safe, familiar and reliable may suddenly be shattered or be turned upside-down. The dramatic shifts, the flip-flops, the sudden turn-around, the wrenching away from what we have thought was our security, all serve the greater purpose: to shift our focus from reliance on the outer to trust in the inner, a knowing born of compassion, intuition and discernment. ”

The NEW EDITION of Jumping Mouse includes an appendix with an Experiential Guide of ceremonies, rituals, exercises and reveries. The experiential guide is designed for groups and for persons who have read Jumping Mouse and would like to go deeper in the exploration of their own journey. The suggested experiences correspond with the theme of each chapter. For example, there are questions to ponder, guidelines for making your own medicine shield, a rite of passage ceremony, and a ceremony for healing betrayals.

From human breath and heartbeat to the pulsating energies of subatomic particles, to the expansion and contraction of stars, vibration is all that exists. Native Americans have understood this for generations; a knowledge embodied in their language and daily life. “ We live” says Joseph Rael, a mystic of Pueblo and Ute heritage, in the House of Shattering Light, a place where reality, which is timeless and eternal, is cut into slices perceptible to our senses.” Rael shares the mystical teachings of his people as he guides the reader toward a profound awareness of what it means to be part of a living universe.

“Rael honors listening as a holy act and celebrates metaphor as a way of holding the door open to mystery. This is a compelling work of Native American spirituality.” Values and Visions

Excerpts from Joseph Rael

“ Whether it was through the ceremonies or through the sacred geometry of the architecture, or through the vibrational essence of the sacred sites, there was always the sense that the village was a cluster of souls that had come to live together in Picuris Pueblo. We had chosen to live as relatives, together, in community. There was the sense that together we could become part of the vibrations and emanations of the beauty of innocence. There is a lifting quality in community that brings forth an enhanced awareness through timeless living as one.”

“The focus of my whole life became to understand all physical forms as sound and vibration of the infinite Self and to be a working-listener to those forms.”

Excerpt from Mary Elizabeth’s introduction to Being and Vibration

“The call that Joseph Rael presents is not to try and emulate his life but to enter our own lives more courageously, more passionately, more genuinely. We are inspired to trust the truth of our own vision and of our own discoveries and to dare to live that truth. The challenge, then, is to be the creative mythmaker that we are, to consciously choose our myth, lest it be chosen for us by the collective mind. We are empowered to live the symbolic life, to experience all life as metaphor in the mind of God.”

To emerge as a woman is an exquisite dance. We stretch. We reach out, we express, we move, sometimes boldly, sometimes timidly, sometimes gracefully, sometimes awkwardly. We take a step forward; we take a step backwards. And then, unsure, we listen in stillness to sense our rhythm once more, to know when to, whether to or even it we should dance. We leap up with joy. We bend over in pain. Yet, we still dance. In time, we embrace it all. We dance on it all. ”

This Handbook is the dance of women opening to the full depth, power and potency of being a woman. It is women moving with and through their weaknesses, their strengths, their challenges, their defeats, their victories and their triumphs. It is women discovering the joy of being a woman. It is women being challenged to reclaim their innate wisdom through ritual and story-telling with funny and poignant stories that delight and uplift. It is women knowing and accepting themselves.

Gathered form the experience of women throughout the United States and Europe, Handbook for the Emerging Woman is a ground-breaking book-complete with exercises and rituals which awaken the unlimited power of the feminine spirit.

Excerpts from Handbook for the Emerging Woman

“Betrayal is the death of trust. You know you have moved beyond betrayal when the gift you received form the betrayal is greater than the pain you have invested in it.”

“Love is expecting people to keep their agreements.
Wisdom is knowing they won’t always,
Self-Love is loving yourself even when they don’t….The only way to have all the love we need is to love ourselves. Deciding to love who we are is perhaps the most important decision we ever make.”

Quote from Dr. Jean Shinoda Bolen, MD author, Goddesses in Everywoman

Approximately one-third of our lives is spent sleeping. When we take refuge in sleep, we go home. We touch the infinite Source of soul knowledge and are given dreams which speak to us the way wise teachers have always spoken, in story, parable and metaphor.
