Through the Wild Heart of Mary; Teachings of the 20 Mysteries of the Rosary and the Herbs and Foods Associated with Them
Gail Faith Edwards
Through the Wild Heart of Mary presents a historical perspective on women's spirituality, an exploration of the roots and evolution of devotion to Mary, and a study of the herbs and foods long associated with the mysteries of the rosary. Its strong Mediterranean flair is inspired by the vibrant culture, customs and diet of the indigenous people of the Apennine mountains of Southern Italy, the author's ancestral homeland. This book takes the reader on a journey into the Neolithic and Paleolithic past where we acknowledge the brilliance of our ancestors and realize that the roots of the sacred mysteries of the rosary extend this far back in time. It explores the significance of developing our wild hearts and invites the reader to connect with the wild heart of Mary as well as the wild earth, once a key element of the Christian experience. It introduces the Rosary as a tool for meditation and for grounding personal as well as global peace. It presents a comprehensive investigation and joyful celebration of the herbs and foods highlighted by the mysteries of the rosary. They provide us with time tested nourishment and a reliable foundation for health of body, mind and spirit.
