With this June, 2007 special edition, VIBRATION MAGAZINE
celebrates its 9th anniversary of continuous publishing! Find it at
http://www.FlowerEssenceMagazine.com
This edition's theme, Nature-Centered Wisdom, taps
into the ancient connections between people and plants, animals, or
even sacred sites so that these forces of nature can communicate their
holy and healing purposes. The authors in this exciting
collection range from botanists who study sacred plants of indigenous
cultures, to shamanic practitioners, to essence makers.
We hope you find the collection as important and fascinating as
we do. We received so many powerful articles that, for the first
time, we decided to make this issue a two-parter, continuing with the
topic in our next edition!
Sincerely,
Donna Cunningham, MSW
