"Angels and Other Mysteries of the Tree of Life" - M. Aivanhov

Obviously there maybe some points not everyone agrees on but I found the book very informative****

the faiths has to be the largest list I've ever seen, very useful, however can be a little
confusing as different names are quoted by different faiths etc..

angels" - A theologian & biologist explore angels using classics , bible,
physics, cosmology , worth a read if your an angel fan.
"Story of the
Soul" - Edgar Cayce

"Dictionary of Symbols" - J.C. Cirlot brilliant book of symbols, very detailed and comprehensive a must have for people interested in or performing readings.
"Signposts" - Denise Lynn One of the better dream/symbol books available if you want a quick brief interpretation, it's easy to read and has a comprehensive introduction. For a more detailed interpretation or for Tarot/cards/readings use with "Dictionary of Symbols".
"Hands of light"
- Barbara Ann Brennan A very interesting if a little expensive book which looks at the
'Aura' or 'Human energy field' in-depth with good visual interpretations. Having a great
interest in the healing field I found this book very useful to read and as a reference
manual.

quite useful as an introduction and for more experienced people.

"Love is in the Earth" - Melody - The crystal 'bible' an absolute must for anyone interested in crystals, I've found it to be very informative and accurate if a little daunting to start with, it' helps to combine it with the pictorial book to see example s of the rarer types of stones "Mineralogical Pictorial"
"Mystery of The Crystal Skulls " - An account of a search for crystal skulls by two people who had no real pre-conception of there powers or history - very informative.
"Crystal Alley
Cards" - A must for all crystal fans, basically another card method for
readings specifically designed for crystal fans, the pack contains a handbook which
presents interpretations and different card layouts the artwork is wonderful.
"Way of the
Peaceful Warrior" - Dan Millman A book written about a college guy who
'bumps' into a 'wise man' who introduces him into a way of living. The book is very easy

lifestyle for the modern day.

"The Pilgrimage"
An absolutely brilliant book about a guy that decides to take time off from everyday
life and finally undertake the 'Pigrimage' a definite page turner. Also included at the
end of each chapter is an exercise to help you along. I just wanted to pack myrucksack
after reading it and hit the road myself!
"By the River
Piedra, I Sat Down and Wept"
"Power of The Witch" - Laurie Cabot A really good read exploring the history of Wicca, with some modern day practice as well, a good overview although I'd suggest obtaining some more information regarding the practise of if you want to explore Wicca more fully.
What can I say about Carlos briefly and do justice to these books? All I can say is that I've read all of them and found them absolutely fascinating and intriguing. When I was introduced to them the term 'Shaman' was unknown to me, but Carlos introduces a whole way of life and thinking without even mentioning the term. I can recommend that if your thinking of embarking on these books read 'The Active Side of Infinity' first as it's like and introduction or a summary to wet your appetite..
"The teachings of
Don Juan: A Yaqui Way of Knowledge" This book is really in two parts the
second being an exercise or notes on the first - not really somthing I looked at.
"The Active Side of Infinity"-read this one first if you like it you'll love the others!
"The Wheel of Time" This is an interesting book which is compilation of the 'most intersting' statements / quotes from the book.
"Magical Passes"- This book contains the movements shown to Carlos in order to work upon his energy body, I've found this interesting as a lot of the movements seem to resemble forms of Chi-Kung & Tai Chi.
"Castaneda for Beginners" - At last an easy to understand explanation of Carlos's life presented in a cartoon form.
"Awakening the Buddha Within" - Lama Surya Das An interesting introduction into buddhism and more, a book for everyone to read.
"The Witch's Dream" -Florinda Donner-Grau Written by a female carlos 'team member'
"Crystal Vision : Shamanic Tools for Change & Awakening" This is an interesting book which covers the construction and use of various shamanic tools, definately worth investigating, tools created by yourself for your use are more personal.
"American Indian
Prophecies" - Kurt Kaltreider
"The Sacred Ways
of a Lakota" Wallace black elk an amazing life story, a rare insight into a
'real' native american shamens life.
"Return of the
Bird Tribes"- Ken Carey - native american spirituality - Definately a book to
read if you have an interest in the subject a must read!
'The Third
Millennium" - Ken Carey - Not as easy for me to read as 'Return of the Bird
Tribes' as it's in my on-going pile.
Barbara Marciniak
"Earth : Pleiadian Keys to the Living Library"
"Channelling For
Everyone" - Tony Neate A good and safe guide into the world of channelling,
lots of infomation and practical exercises with some energy work as well.
