In a world that has likened aging to being a hag, a woman no longer relevant, the Crone is remembering that her presence and grace is vital in an often-jaded world. The Crone has a lot to offer. She is now the Keeper of the Wise Blood, the crowned one, the story keeper, the wise witch, the healer and more. She takes no nonsense, keeps a wise counsel until needed and calls a spade a spade. The Crone is sexy, feminine, vibrant, laughs loudly, loves deeply and has so much to offer. Gateway to the Modern Crone is a book of personal stories, incantations, affirmations and ritual, ceremonies, meditation and embracing the Goddess within. Yes, it is for the sacred Crone however there are also ceremonies and activities for wise women of all ages. This book will encourage you to explore the Crone within.
