About the Author
MOONSTONE STAR WHITE is a mystical visionary and a spiritual maverick. With graceful candor and impeccable honesty she translates the experiential data of her life into spiritual wisdom anyone can easily grasp and utilize.
At the age of 25 she had a spontaneous and life-altering experience of spiritual ecstasy and profound insight while gazing at the rays of a dawn sunrise sparkling across ripples of water in a desert stream. To describe it in her own words:
"I was simply enjoying the beauty of a spectacular spring morning by taking a walk and had stopped along a canal to enjoy the sunrise. As I watched the sunlight begin to dance across the movement of the water, I felt my essence 'fall into it'. In those moments I knew without a shred of doubt the nature of our essential being-ness, what some would call Nirvana or the Kingdom of Heaven. My inner spirit welled euphoric, like a geyser exploding to the surface of awareness and dispersing into a sea of indescribable and endless bliss.
"When the realization 'This is it!' found its way into my consciousness, I felt myself plummet like a rock to the more familiar recognition of my surroundings. In my desire to hold onto that experience, I also knew the humbling reality that is the hallmark of human experience. In the flash of a few moments I had experienced both the wisdom and peace that surpasses all worldly understanding and the devastation of knowing our separation from The One, the classic fall from grace."
In the years following, she pursued a variety of careers and explored as many avenues of personal growth and spiritual transformation as time and money would allow. She began journaling realizations and ideas in the early nineties and as a coherent message began to form, she developed a habit of "sourcing" information in what she calls "stream-of-consciousness" writing in the early morning hours. These musings were often scrawled into a journal on her bedside stand, at other times they were transcribed while she sat expectantly at her computer keyboard in the hours before dawn. In her new book, High Way From Hell, she put together this collection of ideas to show the reader in an experiential way how personal judgments limit the authentic expression of our spiritual natures.
First a writer and a poet by nature, she graduated in 1977 with a journalism degree from Iowa State. As a spiritual intuitive with a questioning mind, deepening her understanding of the fundamental nature of existence has been the passion of a lifetime. Her interest in how the mind interacts with the reality one experiences led her to many personal growth workshops, paths of spirituality and to become both a certified massage therapist and a hypnotherapist. She is certified by the International Medical and Dental Hypnotherapy Association, the National Guild of Hypnotists, the American Board of Hypnotherapy and the International Hypnosis Federation. She is also a member of the International Association of Counselors and Therapists. She received her massage therapy and aromatherapy certification through the Healing Arts Institute in Fort Collins, Colorado in 1992, although she no longer practices bodywork professionally.
At different times she has been a practitioner of Transcendental Meditation, yoga, Tai Chi, Qi Gong and received a brown belt in Shotokan karate. She is an ordained minister through the Universal Life Church, which respects the unique and personal nature of spiritual experience.
With chameleon-like versatility, Moonstone has moved through a diverse collage of occupations in her exploration of life. Growing up on a farm in rural Iowa provided her early years with an abundance of contemplation time spent outdoors in nature. She worked her way through college at Iowa State as a hotel bartender and cafeteria food server. At different times since then she has been a free-lance batik and watercolor artist, massage therapist, spiritual energy healer, aroma therapist, aromatherapy workshop instructor, artistic mask-maker, hypnotherapist and real estate broker.
With a vision both intimately personal and significantly global, her philosophy asserts that the tendency to think with emotions rather than feel them diminishes happiness by shutting down intuition and cutting us off from our spiritual natures.
Today she is focused on spreading the message in her book and in helping others discover the freedom and intuition that lies within their own hearts.
