Books for a more enchanted way of being in the world.
The Magic of the Real World
What if the real world isn’t what we’ve been told it is? What if the true magic of life is not found in escaping the world, but in seeing it as it truly is—alive, holy, and overflowing with mystery?
In The Magic of the Real World, Kristina Wood invites you into a luminous remembrance of your sacred belonging to the Earth and to all of Creation. With unflinching clarity and lyrical reverence, she guides us to awaken our senses, restore our relationship with the Divine Mother, and reclaim our indigenous knowing—that we are not separate from the Earth, but of Her.
Drawing from decades of ceremonial experience with indigenous people, Kristina shares soul-stirring stories, potent spiritual practices, and poetic reflections that open the door to an enchanted, interconnected cosmos. Here, even the trees and stones speak. The Morning Star becomes an altar. Every living being, a messenger of love.
