"I was honestly surprised by how much I loved this book. The rituals and spells at the end are wonderful, practical, and easy to follow, but the first part of Lunar Wisdom and the focus on the women who wrote it is where it really shines.

I usually read more instructional non-fiction books and I was worried that this would be more like student essays. There were essays here and these women were (and still are) students, but they also teachers and conduits of wisdom. I could see bits of myself in all of their stories and lives, even though it would seem like we were nothing alike on the surface.

I could also see parts of myself that I didn't like to think about, but really needed to stop pretending away. This book was a catalyst to reflect on my life, just as these women once did. Through the sharing of their inspiring stories, I felt connected to the authors and even more connected to the moon and to myself than I ever felt before.

When you start reading, I'd recommend journaling your thoughts and impressions as you go. (I wish I'd done so the first time I read Lunar Wisdom.) I also think that this would be a book to re-read as you hit milestones in your life, for you would get something different from the readings each time you do."
