Book Description
Using the Peregrine falcon as an archetype for pilgrimage, this volume explores the roots of our ancient past to discover meaning for our modern lives. From the wanderings of the hunter-gatherers through the pilgrimages of the medieval world, a sense of wanderlust and quest continues to be part of our soul. Examining the theme of pilgrimage across cultures and traditions, it claims Celtic pilgrimage as a model for our benefit. Pilgrimage is an outward journey with inner meaning. Celtic pilgrimage is about the journey rather than the destination: life is a pilgrimage from the place of our birthing to the place of our rising. The book concludes with several practical suggestions to incorporate this Celtic pilgrimage into our daily lives.
