The Gypsy Horses of A Wizards
Spell Ranch in Burleson, Texas
have an exceptionally astute, sensitive, calm, smart, and loving
nature.
Because of this they provide immediate feedback.
If you are a member of our military suffering from PTSD, TBI, MST,
stress/anxiety, family issues,
stressed, unhappy, angry, feeling grief or lack of
self-esteem,
having personal or family issues, or work life issues,
the horses will provide you an opportunity
to develop insight into your particular challenge and take control of it.
Due to their ability to act a a biofeedback machine, you cannot
fool a horse.
Join other veterans, spouses, and their families
along with an Equine Specialist, Counselor, or peer-to-peer support
group and of course,
the Gypsy Horses to see if there can be a difference in your life.
Some of Our Favorite Sayings
Specifically for our Gypsy Horse ranch is this one
:
"Gypsy
gold does not chink and glitter.
It gleams in the sun and neighs in the dark."

Asking for help is a sign of strength, not a sign
of weakness.
The tools are in you, let the horses show you where.
Life doesn't get better by chance, Life gets better by change.
Live in the present for Zen like peace.
There is something about the outside of a horse that is good for the
inside of a man.
Winston Churchill
The wind of heaven is that which blows between a horse's ears.
Arabian Proverb
God forbid that I should go to any Heaven in which
there are no horses.

In Praise Of The
Horse
Ronald Duncan
Where in this wide world can man find nobility without
pride,
friendship without envy,
or beauty without vanity?
Here where grace is laced with muscle
and strength by gentleness confined.
He serves without
servility;
he has fought without enmity.
There is nothing so powerful, nothing less violent;
there is nothing so quick, nothing more patient.

From Carl Gustav Jung, Father of
modern psychoanalysis.
from The Undiscovered Self, 1957
Perhaps this explains WHY this program with horses works.
" The source of numerous psychic disturbances and
difficulties occasioned by man's progressive alienation from his
instinctual foundation,i.e., by his uprootedness and
identification with his conscious knowledge of himself, by his concern
with consciousness at the expense of the unconscious....he forgets
himself in the process, losing sight of his
instinctual nature and putting his own conception of himself in
place of his real being."
