Book Description
This extraordinary tool for self-discovery draws on the strength and beauty of Native American spiritual tradition. Developed by Native American medicine teacher Jamie Sams, this unique system distills the essential wisdom of the sacred teachings of many tribal traditions and shows users the way to transform there lives.
The 44 beautifully illustrated cards, each endowed with a particular meaning and message, may be drawn individually for a daily lesson or laid out in a series of spreads that open up different paths to inner knowledge. Used with the accompanying text, which explains the various forms of methods and interpretation and divination, the cards are a powerful tool for enhanced self-awareness and positive change.
Former Byrds member John York has created the perfect complement to these cards with his Sacred Path Songs, a 41 minute audio cassette that includes the Omaha Tribal Prayer and an Invocation by Jamie Sams. York's enchanting songs are played on traditional Native American instruments and are a beautiful accompaniment to the cards.

THE BOOK THAT CHANGED MY LIFE!,
By "churchandler" (KEY WEST, FLORIDA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Sacred Path Cards (Hardcover)
For anyone interested in Native American Spirituality and in learning how they can apply these Ancient Teachings in their own modern-day lives, this book is a MUST READ (and USE!) It is a tool that can help anyone who WANTS help. I believe the reviewer who commented that "no Indian he (or she) knows uses CARDS" - must be ignorant to the fact that this book was NOT written for those who were taught these teachings from birth, but rather was written for people like myself who are NEW to the Sacred Path and who don't KNOW how to get on it (and STAY on it!) I thank you, Jamie Sams, for sharing your Native Teachings with those of us who are IGNORANT about these teachings (like the reviewer said) and NEED and WANT to know! This book with the cards and the companion workbook have helped me to make tremendous changes in my life which I hope will make the world a better place for those whose paths will cross mine in the future!

Not hocus pocus,
By
This review is from: Sacred Path Cards (Hardcover)
One of the reviewers spoke for Native Americans who might view these as hocus pocus. As one of this heritage and deeply connected to it, I can say this is not hocus pocus. Cards, feathers, rocks, crystals and a great many other tools are used in reading Mother Earth and her nuances. All provides a message to us in teaching and that is indeed the Native way.I rather enjoy the cards, when I am centred and holding pure intent...I ask that I receive all messages meant for me. It can come through the cards or not, but always appears to those with hearts and ears willing to hear. If one is looking for another tool to connect, consider the cards, but with the frame of mind/heart that says these are not to give you THE answer, but an answer...a guide. The rest is yours to do. Namaste

Been there...done that....Highly recommend 'em,
By A Customer
This review is from: Sacred Path Cards (Hardcover)
As I was reading through the customer reviews for the Sacred Path Cards, I was intrigued by the two reviewers who gave this item 1 star. One reviewer gives everything she reviews 1 star.The other apparently based her review on reading other reviews vs any first hand knowlege. I have used Sacred Path Cards for over 10 years and consider them to be an invaluable tool for spiritual growth. These are not meant to be fortune telling cards. To misconstrue this would be like calling your mother a fortune teller because she told you to "bundle up or you'll get sick" on a cold day. It is difficult to be objective to one's own issues. Our humanness seems to cloud the facts. Lots of people pray for spiritual growth and blame Satan for throwing obstacles in their path when it may just be God answering their prayers. If you don't understand this, I challenge you to pray for the ability to trust God fully. If you're not that brave try praying for patience. Will your discomfort make it more difficult to hear God's guidance? Sacred Path Cards help cut through the illusions we hold of ourselves. They bypass the tendency of our rational minds to justify and defend our motives or desires and tap into the truth in our own subconscious. I have always found Sacred Path Cards to provide a dead-on accurate reflection of what is going on in my life. With the accurate reflection also comes "the fix". The future holds the logical consequences of one's actions or inactions. No hocus-pocus involved. I would liken Ms. Sam's teachings to a Native American version of parable-style teaching. She gives insightful cultural history and mixes it with the lesson(s). The result for me has been the ability to limit the amount of time I would normally spend wallowing in my own misery and allowing me to focus on bringing my life back into balance. "Thank you, Jamie Sams." is inadequate to express my heartfelt gratitude.
