Barbara Hand Clow’s The Mind Chronicles is the story of her journey through a series of hypnotically induced past life experiences. This journey has brought her insight into her deepest self, a journey that has taken her beyond the fears and limitations incurred in past lives, bringing her to a new level of freedom, freedom that has opened her to new powers in her ability to see and experience the world of the New Age. Her journey takes on dreamlike qualities that she refers to as Dreamtime. By letting her journeys/stories dwell and brew within us over time we can better appreciate their depth of mean and experience how they may affect our personal lives as readers.
These Dreamtime experiences take her through three evolving stages of consciousness. The first stage, during the time of the hunter-gatherers, connects her with the Mother Earth Goddess and brings her the magical love and nurturance of the Great Mother. Next comes the time of rational consciousness, the patriarchal time of seeking power through control, judgment, fear, abuse and violence, a time when the church fathers proclaimed what others were to believe and do in life. As this oppressive era now passes into the third era, Barbara in her past life experiences begins to realize that she needs to be in control of her life and make her own decisions. With this realization she begins to rebel against this patriarchal control, but the fear and anger instilled during the second era initially blocked the opening to her sought-after freedom. As she succeeds in overcoming this fear and disassociates from her anger she finds freedom, freedom that opens her to new powers of seeing and ways of experiencing the world and universe. With this new way of seeing we can return and again learn to resonate with the living Earth, our Mother Goddess. We can hear and feel the Earth’s messages of how to live sustainably with everything of the Earth. Only by regaining this connection that was the way of life during the first era of hunting and gathering can the human species survive and live in harmony and peace with all life on Earth.
These Dreamtime experiences can be read at many different levels and other readers will likely find other themes in her journey that personally resonates with them. How I describe her journey is how it was personally relevant to me. This book is a must read for those who seek relevance in their lives. In order to overcome the fear of letting go of past deep seeded beliefs incurred during the patriarchal era, beliefs that are leading us to our destruction, the book needs to be read with an open/nonjudgmental mind. Through it we can find the freedom that provides us with balance between our anima and animus and provides us with direction in our own personal journeys into the New Age.

I've heard of Barbara Hand Clow's books for some time and so I read the Mind Chronicles because of my interest of past life regression. Very compelling read!
