Our earliest poets were shamans. Today as in the earliest times, true shamans are poets of consciousness who know the power of song and story to teach and to heal. They understand that the right words open pathways between the worlds and draw closer the gods and goddesses who wish to live through us.
Robert Moss brings this ancient bardic tradition to life in this collection of poems and stories that stream directly from dreams and shamanic adventures in the world-behind-the-world. You’ll be carried into a reality where everything is alive and conscious, where tigers and bears can lend you their forms and raven and hawk can give you their sight, where the ancestors are talking, talking, and the gates to the Otherworld open from wherever you are.
You’ll awaken, through these pages, to how shamans use poetic speech to call the soul back home, into the bodies of those who have lost vital energy through pain or trauma or heartbreak. You’ll travel to the Island of No Pain where lost boys and girls are kept safe. And you’ll learn to make the return journey, and sing the lost soul back into the body where it belongs.
Robert Moss is a novelist, poet, historian, and lifelong dream explorer. For many years he has taught and practiced Active Dreaming, an original synthesis of dreamwork and shamanic techniques. His many books include Conscious Dreaming: A Spiritual Path for Everyday Life; Dreamgates: Exploring the Worlds of Soul, Imagination, and Life Beyond Death; The Three “Only” Things: Tapping the Power of Dreams, Coincidence, and Imagination; and The Secret History of Dreaming. His novels include the three-volume Cycle of the Iroquois—The Firekeeper; Fire Along the Sky; and The Interpreter. He lives in upstate New York.
