Since I didn't have to go into the lab today I decided to play the tourist, something I didn't really do during my internship, mainly because there's really little to do on Cape Cod in the winter. I had an urge to be near the ocean today and thought a great thing to do would be to go whale watching, because 1) I did want to study cetaceans before I

Afterwards I visited a neat local witchy type shop called Lavender Moon where I spent far too much money on books (only three though). The books I got are Be a Goddess! by Francesca De Grandis, Tarot for the Green Witch by Ann Moura, and The Mist-Filled Path: Celtic Wisdom for Exiles, Wanderers, and Seekers by Frank MacEowen. Feel free to post reviews. I also bought some stones as I haven't been able to find mine since all of our belongings were boxed.

I have all of those books you mentioned. De Grandis claims that her 3rd Road tradition is Faery/Celtic Shamanism, but it is not. It doesn't even involve journeying which is a key part of shamanism. It's more a blend of Hawaian huna, Wicca, and Victor Anderson's Feri Tradition, with some of her own stuff thrown in. It was pretty good, but not what it advertised it to be.

I haven't read the Tarot book yet. I have a ton of books that I haven't gotten around to reading yet.

The Mist Filled Path is an excellent book. I highly recommend that one and the sequel Spiral of Memory and Belonging, where he delves more into Celtic Shamanism. Five stars for those!
