She was born Violet Mary Firth, but went by the name Dion Fortune. I've enjoyed her non-fiction writing on the Qabalah quite a bit, so I decided to venture deeper into her fictional works as well. She viewed both genres as essential keys to unlock her esoteric teachings. "The Sea Priestess" is her best known novel, and introduces her character Vivien Le Fay Morgan. Although veiled as fiction, this book is often cited as a foundational text of Wicca and other magical orders.


The Sea Priestess is the highly acclaimed novel in which Dion Fortune introduces her most powerful fictional character, Vivien Le Fay Morgan a practicing initiate of the Hermetic Path. Vivien has the ability to transform herself into magical images, and here she becomes Morgan Le Fay, sea priestess of Atlantis and foster daughter to Merlin! Desperately in love with Vivien, Wilfred Maxwell works by her side at an isolated seaside retreat, investigating these occult mysteries. They soon find themselves inextricably drawn to an ancient cult through which they learn the esoteric significance of the magnetic ebb and flow of the moontides.

I'm enjoying The Druidry Handbook by John Michael Greer.




The classic guide to living a spiritual life rooted in Celtic antiquity and revived to meet the challenges of contemporary life.
Druidry offers people a path of harmony through reconnection with the green Earth. The Druidry Handbook is the first hands-on manual of traditional British druid practice that explores the Sun Path of seasonal celebration, the Moon Path of meditation, and the Earth Path of living in harmony with nature as tools for crafting an Earth-honoring life here and now. From ritual and meditation to nature awareness and ecological action, John Michael Greer opens the door to a spirituality rooted in the living Earth.
Featuring a mix of philosophy, rituals, spiritual practice, and lifestyle issues, The Druidry Handbookis an essential guide for those seriously interested in practicing a traditional form of druidry. It offers equal value to eclectics and solitary practitioners eager to incorporate more Earth-based spirituality into their own belief system.
