Rainbow Serpent Paperback – October 1, 2001

Tunneshende has a way of making her incredible journey to Knowing an Everywoman experience. It is evident in her voice that she embodies the balanced, grounded sense of self required to undertake such a challenge in self-mastery and to pass it on to others for them to create their own. More impressive is that she accomplishes this feat in a beautifully feminine way without alienating her masculine aspects, or those of her readers. She also makes the Toltec shamanic tradition available to an audience that would otherwise miss out on such valuable teachings. The healing process described for sexual, thus spiritual, wellbeing delivers an intense lesson in dreamwalking, becoming aware of one's place in All, and in co-creating reality.

I read this book many years ago, after having read all of Carlos Castenada's books. I found it extremely helpful in filling in the gaps which were missing from Carlos' journey concerning sexuality. I had always been curious to know what Don Juan had thought about our sexuality, and Tunneshende nicely answered my many questions. The tone was simple and entertaining, the plot freely-moving and enjoyable, and the meetings with Don Juan always spicy.For anyone interested in shamanism, especially those who have followed Castaneda's insightful journeys across time and space, this is definitely an important read.
