Seasons of Moon and Flame

The yearning to slow down and simplify, return to the earth, and maybe even "rewild" what has been tamed in ourselves persists even though that dream seems ever more remote in contemporary life. Danielle Dulsky shows that even in our high-tech and high-pressure lives, it is possible. As a young woman, Dulsky found refuge, nurturance, and wisdom in her grandmother's rustic home. As an adult, after years of seeking elsewhere, Dulsky came to recognize the wise elder, or Crone, in her grandmother and to explore ways of honoring that lineage. She offers fellow seekers a way to manifest their own "year of the wild" and to tap into often-forgotten wisdom ways. Seasons of Moon and Flame guides readers to live cyclically while working with the archetype of the Sacred Hag, or wild grandmother, who appears in various guises. Lunar phases within lunar seasons are highlighted through rituals and ceremonies. Wonderfully inclusive, with adaptations for families, spiritual groups, and other traditions, this book is a potentially life-changing guide to living mystically, magically, and in empowering harmony with the worlds of spirit and nature.
