About This Book

The Zuni people of New Mexico have long used small stone animal carvings as sacred power objects — mediators between the human world and the spirit realm. In this beautifully illustrated guide, Hal Zina Bennett explores the rich tradition of Zuni fetishes, revealing how these ancient objects can be used in modern life for meditation, reflection, and personal insight.

Bennett covers the Guardian of the Six Regions, the legendary meanings of key fetish figures, and the personal qualities each can help its owner cultivate. With illuminating cross-cultural comparisons, practical exercises, and journaling prompts, this is both a scholarly introduction to Zuni spirituality and a deeply practical guide for contemporary seekers.
