In researching Halloween's history, we find a delightful compendium of superstitions associated with either the harvest season in general or with Halloween in particular: All souls in Purgatory are released for 48 hours from All Hallows Eve. On these nights they are free (Gaelic). Children born on Halloween will enjoy lifelong protection against evil spirits and will be endowed with the gift of second sight (rural America). Do not go hunting on Halloween Eve, as you may wound a wandering spirit (England). On Halloween Eve, do not look at your shadow in the moonlight, or you shall be next to haunt a graveyard (England). If you hear footsteps following you on Halloween, you should ...

We're all on a journey. A journey to heal ourselves, to figure out what life is all about, to discover the mysteries. It's a challenging journey with fits and starts, dead-ends, even getting totally lost at times, forgetting where we are and picking ourselves up, asking, "Now where was I before that happened?" Wouldn't it be nice if someone gave you a guidebook? Or at least a map? The chakra system is a map for the journey through life. It describes the sacred architecture of the soul, modeled upon the energetic processes in the subtle body, those whirling wheels of life that move your vehicle along its path and make the journey possible. Originating in the Tantric period of yoga ...
