Hawaiian Magic & Spirituality

Rating:
Summary: I've seen worse Huna books.
Review: Mr. Cunningham clearly did his research on this book. This book contains a fairly comprehensive list of deities.

However; IMHO Mr. Cunningham allowed his Wiccan beliefs to shade his perceptions of the Huna faith. Both Huna and Wicca are Shamanic religions, but they are radicaly different.

Summary: Sharing the Magick
Review: Reading this book you will come to know the love that Scott Cunningham has for Hawaii: the land, its people, and its magick. Through his writing you not only learn about the spirituality and practices, but of the heart and beauty of Hawaii. Scott also speaks of his relations with the Goddess Pele, and his other experiences in the land. Another must for Cunningham fans, or those who wish wishing to explore the magick of the islands.

Summary: A Nice Introduction to Polynesian Religion
Review: While this book was aimed at the New Age audiance, it is an excellent introduction to classical Polynesian shamanism in Hawaii. There is alot of information on the lunar calendar, the various deities, holy places and objects, symbolism, the Menehune and other important aspects of Hawaiian spirituality. I strongly recommend that anyone with an interest in Hawaiian religion or Huna look at this book.
