Sister Jaguars Journey is the fiercely honest story of Sister Judy Bisignanoa Dominican nun who, after spending sixty-eight years looking for God in all the wrong places, finally found the peace and divine connection she was looking for in Ecuadors Amazon rainforest. It all starts with a simple invitation to visit the Achuar community in the Amazon jungle. Here, in this place, with these special people, using the plant medicine ayahuasca, she was propelled onto a new path. Guided by the indigenous wisdom of Pachamama (Mother Earth) and the sacred rituals of the Achuar people, she confronts and lets go of her turbulent, abusive, and angry past, ultimately discovering that her lifes purpose was not to become an American educator, author, and nun but rather, a compassionate human being. In many ways, Sister Jaguars Journey is the story of one nuns transformational passage from self-rejection to self-acceptance and from self-blame to self-love. It is, perhaps, the journey of each of us as we search for peace in this life and beyond. The Achuar call her Hermana OtorangoSister Jaguar, and so will you.

"Love, Nature, Magic will blow your mind and open your heart."—John Grogan, author of Marley & Me "Let’s hear it for women intent on conquering new worlds—especially on the astral plane. If we’re going to get trippy, I can think of no better guide than Maria Rodale . . . [This] is a fascinating book . . . Rodale bares her soul. Part of the charm of her writing is its unfiltered and enthusiastic forthrightness; no reportorial distancing or irony here. This is a journey into her heart."—Dominique Browning, Wall Street Journal

This book is dedicated to the people who believe in the journey that is called life, no matter how it begins or where it ends. The journey of a thousand miles begins with the first step. When I was growing up in Brooklyn there were some people, not many, who feared the journey. They believed that home was their castle. They built moats around their castle that had to be maintained. The moat might have been the staircase. They would sweep the stoop and the grounds that circled the castle and wash the stoop, which may have been their drawbridge. The most important thing was staying close to their castle. They did not go too far from home. I, on the other hand, believe that staying close to home would stunt a person’s growth. I believe that in order to grow as a person you have to go farther than the front door. The kings, as I imagine, would send their general and officers to survey vast different lands to enhance their knowledge and awareness as their people consciously experienced processes that allowed those folks to live vicariously through the path that someone else walked, and in their mind’s eye, it became their reality.

Lily returns to the magical world of Sa Neo, but nothing is the same as before. The witches are at war with the mermaids and Lily only has herself to blame. There are whispers of peace, and a revolution is brewing, but no one will stand up for what they believe in. Could Lily be the leader Sa Neo has been waiting for? LOST NOW HERE: The Road to Healing, is the sequel to the much-acclaimed Lost Nowhere: A Journey of Self-Discovery. Join Lily as she navigates an enchanted world full of ancient wisdom and mystical creatures. A note from the author: The first books I ever read were fairytales, and as I grew up, I didn’t want, nor did I believe, that fairytales needed to stop being read. I discovered magical realism novels as a young adult, and from here, my love for books only grew stronger. It was no surprise that the first book I ever wrote reflected my own desires. Although, with my new adult perspective, my books needed to contain depth and wisdom in order to satisfy my cravings. Incorporating witchcraft into fiction was a natural process for me as my entire childhood consisted of creating initiations and magic, (little did I know that I was tapping into wisdom from my past lives)! Writing the Lost Nowhere witchcraft series was an absolute pleasure. I could see the enchanted world of Sa Neo so clearly in my mind. And as I journey through it, I take you with me, as we gather the wisdom of the world, the magic of its people, along with a new understanding of life, our reality and why we are here. Lost Now Here: the road to healing, is an extension of my first book Lost Nowhere: a journey of self discovery. Only now, the main character Lily has a new understanding of herself and the world around her. But like everyone’s life we are constantly challenged and evolving. We are always faced with different ways to push our own boundaries to help provide us with a new understanding of ourselves and our reality. The Lost Nowhere witchcraft fiction series does exactly that - encourages you to question every element of your life and yourself. Whilst getting lost amidst a beautiful fantasy world full of magic and miracles!
