Summary
Details

"I have a hidden meaning. I was portrayed in a thousand different ways in the past, and I keep sprouting again and again down through the centuries. Don't you want to know who I am?

The Green Man is an ancient symbol that has gained new popularity, and yet his origins and meaning remain a mystery. Kenneth McIntosh, author of Water from an Ancient Well: Celtic Spirituality for Modern Life, offers a seldom-heard theory on the original significance of this leafy visage. With a wealth of drawings, the author traces the Green Man's family tree, revealing the deep spirituality embedded in this archetypal image, and concludes with the hope the Green Man offers us today in the twenty-first century.

""Ken McIntosh's new book, The Secret of the Green Man's Soul, is a joyful romp through the Celtic countryside, playing hide and seek with the illusive Green Man in all his forms. Part history, part spiritual journey, part memoir, Ken takes us face to face with the soul of Nature expressed through ancient carvings hidden in the architecture of the Celtic landscape. For anyone with a love of Celtic history, nature, and spirituality, whether it be Christian or Pagan, this book is a must read!""

- Lilly Weichberger, co-author of Brigid's Mantle: A Celtic Dialogue Between Pagan and Christian

""In this beautifully presented book with hand-drawn illustrations, author Ken McIntosh graciously invites the reader to join him on his pilgrimage to discover the Green Man throughout history. McIntosh unpacks this elusive figure and shares his own thoughts and findings in ways that will capture your imagination and inspire you.""

- David Cole, author of Celtic Prayers & Practices and The Mystic Path of Meditation

""Art, architecture, folklore, and spirituality converge in the powerful archetypal image of the Green Man. This delightfully written and lavishly illustrated book can help you appreciate the Green Man in all these ways.""

- Carl McColman, author of An Invitation to Celtic Wisdom"
