Book Review: Fantastic Resource for the Feri Tradition
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is a genuine resource for anyone who wants to follow the Feri path. T. Thorn Coyle passes down her teachings from Victor Anderson. It gives the reader a detailed and involved workbook on exercises to get in touch with the concepts of Feri.
The reader learns about the different pentacles, such as the Iron, Pearl, rust, and guilded pentacles. There are guided meditations to get in touch with each element and guardian.
The descriptions on such concepts as "sexual anointing" are a very small portion of this book and not essential for the reader to follow. I believe personally that using the four elements is the best way to consecrate tools and have chosen not to follow her teachings on sexual anointing. That is just my personal opinion. I've lost nothing from the benefits of this book by doing so.
I do not follow all of the dances either. The dances are there if you want to raise energy and awareness with the elements and the energy of the Feri faith, especially with the points of the pentacles. The concept of "sex" is more related to a basic life energy force than an erotic energy force.
T. Thorn Coyle blends her meditations, dances, and exercises with Sufi teachings, and her background in Reclaiming. The only qualm that I have with this book is that it takes awhile for the reader to complete each chapter, so it is difficult to remember and build on each exercise as you progress through the book. Also, if possible, it is probably advisable that you have a teacher or someone to guide you with meditations when things begin to become a little "strange", as they will, especially when you meet the guardians through meditation. I was skeptical, but I've changed my mind about this book. She offers references to authors such as Starhawk and Eliphas Levi, which are worth reading, if not essential.
The tradition that T. Thorn Coyle created with this book is called Morningstar Feri. This book is a wonderful read for anyone interested in the Feri faith.
