Welcome to Facing North!

Welcome to one of the largest collections of reviews of neopagan/Spiritual/New Age oriented books, music, and other items of interest to our community. My wonderful team of reviewers and I have been writing reviews for many years now, and we love it.

Opened on October 31, 2006 with just over 200 reviews, Facing North is -- first and foremost -- a community resource. We ended that year with more than double our opening number of reviews (500+). Although we slowed our growth, 2007 ended with our database at more than 600 records, 2008 saw us at 900 and we edged over 1,000 by the end of 2009. We accept previously published reviews, and articles and reviews from alternative practitioners. It is my goal to make Facing North the largest repository of alternative spirituality reviews on the Internet.

We are committed to creating a practical site with honest opinions that are fair, even when critical. I welcome your feedback and suggestions to improve this site, one that everyone in our diverse community can use. Just email me at: lisa_at_facingnorth_dot_net (with appropriate edits).

Once again: Welcome to Facing North!

It's been a tough start to the year -- we had a technology upgrade that left my browser unable to talk to Joomla, the program that manages our content. Along with that, there was a huge ice storm here in the Seattle area that left us without power for almost a week.

But we're back and its a strong month with a music update as well as our usual eclectic offering of other items.

Our music offerings are:

Time Rider (alternative)
12.25 (instrumental)
Caravanesari (instrumental)
Guitar Meditations (instrumental)
Guitar Meditations III (instrumental)  
Eclectic Eve (jazz)
First Melancholy, then the Night Stretch (jazz)
Peaceful Journey Music for relaxation and wellbeing (new age)
Bija: Soothing Music and Mantras for Yoga and Meditation (new age)

We also reviewed:

The High Heeled Guide to Spiritual Living (lifestyle)
