Night readings 2

One of my characteristics, is that many times, it takes me many years to read a book that has already been published many years ago. A lot of manys. It was like that with the beatniks (which became a passion), Azimov, some classics, etc.

Now I'm almost finishing Witch Amongst Us - The Autobiography of a Witch, which was written in 1989 by Lois Bourne - who "worked" with Gardner for years. I have already read her Dancing with Witches, an loved it. And now I enjoy this book, that I found at a second-hand bookstore, so hard to find any of her boos here! She describes her experiences as a medium, in a very matter-of-fact way, not trying to show off... at least not that much. She is very conscious of her limits, and don't try to convince you of anything. She just tells her story, and you decide if you want to believe or not.

The chapter where she talks about the Goddess and the ancient written signals that show how human being began to worship her is very, very good, with a beautiful excerpt from The White Goddess.

I know some people sniff at her blunt way, but I respect her a lot, and in this book she shows how deals with her witchy side while livig her life as a mom and housewife.

Again, I'm sad that I only have a few pages to read!
