Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tiredly, I moved from side to side in my bed. Insomnia kicked in. The memories rushed through my mind in flashes again. I sighed. I suffered from Schizophrenia and insomnia ever since my mom died. Slowly I was healing, but the memories of the past weren't helping as if I was in a past life regression. Aria, a mermaid warrior of the Disenchanted from the Coral sea. She had colorful pastel-colored hair. Her eyes were blue like the seas. At the Coral Sea was where dad proposed to my mother when I was three years old and Heiley was two. Growing up as mundane alongside my siblings was hard changing life for another. Karl and Heiley got used to the changes before I did. I still struggled with making friends in Fate Empire. I was brilliant even in Disenchanted High School. My last year until Fate College. Technology was advanced in Fate Empire. Still, they had different names than the mundane dimension would call them. Rose was Rosě. Amethyst was Thýst, garnet was Gaer, Emerald was Emere, opal, and ruby-there was more, yet I didn't remember their other names for these stones. I called them after the mundane version. They were the quartz that helped design our technology. For mundanes' dimension, they were used for witchery as they recalled. I was a Christian witch. So I called myself a Wiccan instead of a witch at times when I'd be calm. When angered my powers overpowered me and it hurt people around me. My magic was stronger with the days that passed. As in the letter mom sent me with a hawk. It said... Dear Crisyanis, Soon you'll receive the crown as the new queen of the Disenchanteds and Tainos who migrated here. You need to protect them too. Your father misses living in Florida so we will live there after we create the big gigantic house that around it we can create townhouses for the poor in our empire. You deserve to give try to become queen so all your studies will be at Disenchanted University. Don't fear too much you have everyone you need. I belong in angel city unless I marry again, so I said yes to your dad and Amethyst will join the marriage vow too. Mom

Download or read book Witches of America written by Alex Mar and published by Sarah Crichton Books. This book was released on 2015-10-20 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Witches are gathering." When most people hear the word "witches," they think of horror films and Halloween, but to the nearly one million Americans who practice Paganism today, witchcraft is a nature-worshipping, polytheistic, and very real religion. So Alex Mar discovers when she sets out to film a documentary and finds herself drawn deep into the world of present-day magic. Witches of America follows Mar on her immersive five-year trip into the occult, charting modern Paganism from its roots in 1950s England to its current American mecca in the San Francisco Bay Area; from a gathering of more than a thousand witches in the Illinois woods to the New Orleans branch of one of the world's most influential magical societies. Along the way she takes part in dozens of rituals and becomes involved with a wild array of characters: a government employee who founds a California priesthood dedicated to a Celtic goddess of war; American disciples of Aleister Crowley, whose elaborate ceremonies turn the Catholic mass on its head; second-wave feminist Wiccans who practice a radical separatist witchcraft; a growing "mystery cult" whose initiates trace their rites back to a blind shaman in rural Oregon. This sprawling magical community compels Mar to confront what she believes is possible-or hopes might be. With keen intelligence and wit, Mar illuminates the world of witchcraft while grappling in fresh and unexpected ways with the question underlying every faith: Why do we choose to believe in anything at all? Whether evangelical Christian, Pagan priestess, or atheist, each of us craves a system of meaning to give structure to our lives. Sometimes we just find it in unexpected places.

Download or read book Confessions of a Pagan Nun written by Kate Horsley and published by Shambhala Publications. This book was released on 2002-09-10 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A druid-turned-nun writes of faith, love, loss, and religion in this “beautifully written and thought-provoking book” set at the dawn of Ireland’s Christian era (Library Journal) Cloistered in a stone cell at the monastery of Saint Brigit, a sixth-century Irish nun secretly records the memories of her Pagan youth, interrupting her assigned task of transcribing Augustine and Patrick. She revisits her past, piece by piece—her fiercely independent mother, whose skill with healing plants and inner strength she inherited; her druid teacher, the brusque and magnetic Giannon, who introduced her to the mysteries of the written language. But disturbing events at the cloister keep intervening. As the monastery is rent by vague and fantastic accusations, Gwynneve's words become the one force that can save her from annihilation. “As a slant of sunlight illuminates jewels long buried, Kate Horsley's novel brings words to an ancient silence and a living, vivid presence to people who lived in that time of great changes and estrangements we call the Dark Ages.” —Ursula K. Le Guin
