"Secrets of a Celtic Mystic, is the most hopeful, lyrical, and profound book I read all year.

She shares her transformative stories - from being a lost child in the woods, to her most recent vision quest, where she journeys with wise, trickster coyote.

Prepare to be moved beyond yourself, into communion with the sacred forces of life." Clare Dubois, Founder of TreeSisters "I am so deeply stirred by Sacred Earth--especially at this time on the Earth as we experience a great unraveling of society as we know it. ...Sacred Earth invites each of us to pull at the strands of our life and feel the exquisite weave of our interconnectedness--to our past, to each other, and to the Earth itself. Catriona illuminates the sacred within each of us, calls forth the feminine, and invites us to partner with Nature to regenerate our world.
