The book is filled with stories, legends, and ways of life, culture and community to help a Human walk their path in balance. I was referred to Jamie Sams and David Carson's "Medicine Cards" by a Seminole/Tslagi Vietnam vet, and found them to be so valuable that when this set came out, I got it right away. I'm now buying several copies to give away to people who are interested in Native American lore & wisdom, lifestyle & culture - it's that good. The stories in the book are all about how to be a Better Human, how to fit in with family & community, and how to walk with reverence on the Earth. The lore is mostly Lakota, but there are tales from other tribes as well. Each of the tales has an application, a lesson, a perception about a worldview, and attitudes towards community and relationship. I heard a long time ago that Native American "religion" (I'm sorry, I know that's a general term, but bear with me) is about How to Be Your Own Best Human, and that as we all strive to be the best we can be, it makes the world a better place. The stories and lessons in this book are excellent guidance to that end. The cards are almost unnecessary, but can help you choose which stories to work on as you refine and improve your Walk upon this Earth. Highly recommended for anyone interested in Native American culture, Shamanism, spirituality, or just Being A Better Person. (disclaimer: I am a white person.)Read full review

Ive used this book and cards since mid 90s. Perfect way to get in deep touch with nature. Makes sense to me. Beautifully written. I passed mine on to a friend. I found a need to return to timeless truths. A return to the Sacred Path is my key. Its fun, and easy to learn. It rings true for me.

I really lreally like this product. I have also purchased the other card deck by Jamie Sams "Medicine Cards". This deck is every bit as useful to use in card reading and help with out journey in everyday life. The illustrations and colors are very vibrant. The instruction booklet is very informative and easy to use. i highly reccommend the Sacred Path Cards as a very instructive and useful tool for direction and understanding of our path in life.
This product came in a timely fashion in excellent shape and was inspired by Native American spirit guides. It's like hearing from your ancestors , if you have that heritage in your background.

These cards are lovely and Sacred. They are beautifully illustrated and the explanations for each card [in the hardcover book which was included] is stunning. They are wonderful for meditation or for layouts to understand our personal journey in this lifetime. Their companion, The Medicine Cards, is equally as compelling.
