Average customer review:Product Description
An animal familiar represents the species as a whole, not a wolf, but Wolf. Through this connection the shaman or witch can draw on the power of the whole species for their strength and abilities. A familiar also acts as a guide to Otherworld places, where knowledge or healing may be sought. A special relationship is formed between the practitioner and their familiar, otherwise referred to as Totem, Power or Nagual animals. This fascinating and enlightening book details seeking a familiar using pathworkings and dance, calling a familiar, shapeshifting, spirit flight, thought forms, and entering the Otherworld. It goes on to detail animals, giving folklore and names, associated deities, elements and plants, natural history and a pathworking for a wide variety of animals.

Bumper Guide to Familiars.
This book contains an introduction to the subject of working with animal powers and the various types of relationship one can have with spirit animals- familiars, totems, fetches, nugual and tonal animals for example. It shows how to build a relationship with animal powers, how to gain a familiar or totem, how to create a power song and so on. there are then full descriptions of the lore and lessons of fifty animals and birds, togther with personal experiences of people, plus pathworkings and meditations on the animals. As with all of Anna's books this is a full and exhaustive coverage of the subject, well researched and cohesively written. I was able to gain contact with my own elusive familiar, as well as certain healing animal spirits that help me in my shamanic work.
Familiars:Animal Powers of Britain
A fascinating dip into the shamanic world of the witch's familiar - wild and domestic animals with which adepts can link consciousness. It includes real life testimony from people undergoing shamanic experiences [some of them quite scary, others - unexpected].
