I am really enjoying this book. In fact it's what inspired this blog even. I miss being close to nature. I miss being the crazy girl walking down the street looking at the weeds in the abandoned lot:). I miss making medicine and mixing herbs and making potpourri. And I miss having that magic about my life.
I think what happened is that I started to stop believing in everything. I'm not going to try to figure out why things began to fail me. Why I felt like turning away from everything that gave me peace and stability. But I did. And I think I'm ready to turn back. And in a more full way. A more embracing way. And not just embracing of this one particular thing. But embracing of how this green witchery is interlaced into all that I am. It doesn't mean I'm any less of a dancer, any less of a makeup aficionado, any less of a full fledge modern girl. One day you just realize you can be it all because you are it all. You just have to make peace with that.
I'm still making peace. And it's getting easier:). That's the great thing about The Way of the Green Witch. It's all about embracing you in your path. All the ways I've always been with it, always felt about it - she goes right ahead and affirms me without knowing me at all yet knowing me so well. It's a lovely gift this book. I think every green witch would love it. The Amazon reviews are admittedly kind of bitter but for me, it's exactly what I needed right now. Check the library too, that's where I got my copy:).
