Destiny: Rise of the Phoenix Discovering and Living Your Soul Path

"What is my purpose? Why am I here?" These are questions we've all asked at some point. They are powerful questions—so powerful, in fact, that some cultural and spiritual traditions have required one to be of a certain age, or have a certain amount of training, before asking them.

This book, which follows Fire of the Phoenix: Initiation, offers a means of exploring this sacred question. Through the pages that follow, you'll be guided by myths and stories, goddesses and gods, and your own higher self to insights and actions that will help you claim and use the gifts given to you before you arrived here to create the life you were born to live.

Dive deeper, connect, heal, envision, and divine your next steps with the experiential audio journeys that accompany each chapter, available for download at GoldenThreadPress.com.

Together, the book and journeys will guide your way forward to find answers, explore options, reach specific goals, and much more. You can return to the journeys at any point on your path—whenever you need more inspiration, guidance, or insight—or when beginning a new project.

It is becoming increasingly important to ourselves and the world that we each fulfill the life path we set out for ourselves. If the world is to achieve its destiny, it is said, then we each must achieve our own individual destinies.

This book is a treasure map for your destiny. Read it through your heart and the knowing eye of your intuition. May it be a lamp to guide your way forward.

Blessings on your journey.
