The story Tree

Over the years David has created several inspirational stories for family and friends. They are now available to everyone. Each embodies his unique spiritual insight and humanity. They are mostly of Christmas themes and range from magical to mystical, science fiction to fantasy. All ages will enjoy this wonderful collection. By David Spangler.

Starheart and other stories

These novella length tales range the gamut from fantasy to science fiction and something in-between. Here you will find a young girl fighting for her life in a strange realm into which she has been mysteriously catapulted; a young boy needing to discover the most closely guarded secret of an alien race; two former lovers forced to work together to prevent the end of the world as we know it; an old man mourning a love lost on the other side of time and space; and a band of unlikely but intrepid heroes needing to use all the magic and strength at their disposal to find and face the most fearsome creature in their world.

Who knows? Perhaps you will find here an insight or two into the vast and mysterious world that surrounds us. The stories are, after all, written by mystic extraordinaire David Spangler. But mostly these tales will bring you wonder, excitement and most of all, fun and a good laugh or two..

The walker Collection

This is my third anthology of stories. Because each of them was written as a Christmas present for family and friends, all six stories have a Christmas theme. But Christmas to me is a time of wonderment, so I think of these really as stories of wonder. They all have an element of magic to them, but then so do our lives. So really these stories are about who we are when we look beneath the surface of our lives and of our everyday world. They each arise from my sense of who we are as human beings and as spiritual beings. At Christmastime, we may come closest to touching the wonder of our deeper selves, but this experience is available to us any time, not just once a year.

So I think of these stories as more than just Christmas tales. My hope is that whenever you read them, they will brighten your heart and bring delight to your day. May you experience in reading them all the joy I felt in writing them.

Our ordinary Extraordinary lives

The authors of this book are Susan Beal, Claire Blatchford, Drena Griffe, Rue Hass, Mary Reddy, Freya Secrest and Julia Spangler. They are all engaged in a practice of Incarnational Spirituality.

David Spangler writes that Incarnational Spirituality is a practice in which living a sacred life means honoring ourselves and the Earth. It is a practice of bringing wholeness into ourselves and into the life of the world around us. It is about engaging through our own uniqueness and blessing with the world as it is, in order that the world as it could be-a loving and healed world-may emerge.

These authors write about the many ways in which they bring sacredness into their lives in the midst of the challenges and joys of their everyday world. They write in these blogs about the practice of the "divinely ordinary." In so doing, they illumine what is possible for all of us. They illumine what it can mean to lead a sacred life.

Call of the sidhe: magical poems by W.B. Yeats and G.W. Russell (AE)

This book honors two of the great Irish poets, William Butler Yeats and George William Russell (AE). At the same time it highlights the reality of the Sidhe (or Faery). It is a joy of to bring attention to these two notable souls and their outstanding contributions to Faery connections. The hope is to create an awareness of the partnerships we can make with our close relatives in the Otherworld as we unfold our own inner and mostly forgotten Sidhe-nature. In collaboration, we can contribute to the healing of our stressed planetary home and in the process help restore ourselves to wholeness. Art by Jeremy Berg, commentary by Søren Hauge.

Art and Insights

The insights in this book are excerpts from Dorothy Maclean's many "messages" from the voice of her inner divinity and the angelic realms of nature. The art expresses her sensitivity to the beauty and sacredness of our world. Both as an artist and a poet she draws us into the rhythm, flow and magic possible when we awaken to Love and give it expression through our daily life. Enjoy the quotes and paintings as she shares her celebration of the spirit within matter, as one window into the heart and energy of life. Honor them by allowing them to draw you more deeply into your own relationship with Love and the Sacred in Life..

Rhythms and Hues: Poems of the beloved

This is a book of poems born of the realization in the moment of the nearness of the Beloved and the reality of our Oneness with that supreme, sacred Presence and the joy that realization gives. From 1970 to 1973, David Spangler was the co-director of the Findhorn Foundation Community in northern Scotland. Every morning, the community would meet in the main Sanctuary for a time of communal meditation and sharing to start the day's activities. For awhile, David was asked to come up with a spontaneous, short saying each day to open the time of meditation. What seemed appropriate to him was to try to attune to and express what he felt was the spiritual rhythm of that day, hence the name "Rhythms" for these short poems. They are not affirmations in any traditional sense. If anything they are songs of joy and remembrance of who we are. By David Spangler.

From the common grail within: Story and song inwith Gaia’s commons

By Anne Gambling.

There are many fine books about working with our etheric cousins, the Sidhe, but few that show us from the inside out what such a partnership can be like. Drawing on her own experiences, Anne Gambling offers us this perspective. Using a bard's creative skill with prose and poetry, her words, known and invented, draw us deep into the heartspace and worldspace of a Sidhe-human alliance, partnering with Gaia and singing the songs of sacredness echoed by all life around us. This is not a book simply to be read but an experience which we can inhabit and which can enrich us in so doing.

diary of a soul doctor

Diary of a Soul Doctor opens up a new genre of mystery fiction in which the soul is the battlefield and metaphysics the weapon of choice.

Just as the cases of Sherlock Holmes are presented through the pen of Dr. Watson, so too, the cases of the Soul Doctor come to us through the diaries of Jack Rivers, Ash’s assistant. Set in Southern England in the recent past, come to the sanctuary of the Beacon, and discover how the lost art of soul-healing is applied.

The Soul Doctor of this series of ten interlinked stories is Richard Ashington. Known to everyone as Ash, he is a healer and psychologist with a magical background. Calling upon a wide range of esoteric skills to track down and heal the cause of baffling conditions and mysterious situations, with his dependable, and sometimes skeptical assistant, Jack Rivers, Ash investigates cases that have baffled doctors, defying diagnosis or detection. His cases, annotated and compiled in the diaries of Rivers, explore how the ancient past stirs once again to disrupt the present, how re-incarnational bonds defy modern conventions, how supernatural happenings create fear and disquiet, and why unchecked evils spread their miasma. By Caitlín Matthews.

return of the soul doctor

Ash and Jack return for the second of the Soul Doctor series.

The second of the Soul Doctor books sees the return of Ash and another set of case histories recorded by his assistant Jack Rivers, involving mysterious psychic disturbances and soul sicknesses unsolvable by ordinary medical means. Set against the background of their residential nursing home on the South Downs, many stories play out: the unwary visitor to sacred sites who falls into a dangerous trance, the overshadowing of a young artist who paints like a Renaissance master, the deadly haunting of an army camp, the Jacobean play with a reputation worse than that of Macbeth, the man still being stalked by a prisoner put away for life, and the young woman trying to return from a life of abuse. Ash and Jack delve deeper into the human psyche, reaching into the timeless zones to bring healing to shattered lives. This time they face dangers that require them to seek sanctuary themselves.

‘Problems often cannot be healed this side of the worlds, because we need to go beyond time and place into eternity and space to find the solutions.’ By Caitlín Matthews.
