The Last Ecstasy of Life: Celtic Mysteries of Death and Dying

This is a guide to the sacred Celtic stages of death and dying, viewed through the eyes of spiritual midwife Phyllida Anam-Áire. The book emphasizes shadow work, integrating past wounds, and healing ancestry to facilitate the ecstatic transition to the next life. It offers exercises and visualizations to integrate emotions like anger and grief, which impact the soul’s readiness to leave the body. The book discusses cell death and its impact on the human energy field, exploring the soul’s journey through the aítes or bardos. In Celtic tradition, dying is considered birthing, with consciousness passing from this life to the next. The author, informed by a near-death experience, offers an intimate overview of these sacred stages. She describes the final dissolution of elements and emphasizes the importance of resolving psycho-spiritual wounds in this lifetime.
