#25 - Sisters of the Dark Moon by Gail Wood

This book was actually pretty disappointing. It isn't so much about a dark moon path (even though it says it is). It is a set of rituals designed in that 'We are all happy loving the Goddess' sort of a way. And despite what they author may think, it is pretty clear that her Goddess spirituality is NOT Wicca.

Some of the meditations could be tweaked so that they might be good, but this one definitely goes on my 'Don't Waste Your Money' list.

On today's trip to the libary I picked up 'Simple Wicca' by Michele Morgan. I don't hold out a lot of hope that this little pink book will be anything other than what its cover suggests (re: tripe), but I am willing to give it a chance.
