The Mists of Avalon by Marrion Zimmer Bradley. I read it in my freshman year of high school. It's a story about Morrigan, Merlin, King Arthur and so much more. I HIGHLY recommend it if you're into these things. It's an amazing story. I believe they made a show based off it that I've yet to watch. It's not instructional. Just want to make this clear. It's a story. But it's a book you can drown in and it's worth it. 💜🤍
@@starsfromscratch9807 she's dead now, so it's not exactly "supporting" her. I agree that Marion Zimmer Bradley as a person is problematic, but that's no reason for folks to not be able to read and enjoy a fictional story imo 🤷♀️
I read it my freshman year of college, and I agree it's one of those books that you'll reread throughout different periods of your life and take something new away from it. I haven't reread it in many years, but I've never forgotten how life/perspective changing it was for me.
@@starsfromscratch9807 Please support the book! The original author is dead and all the money earned through it's purchase her daughter donates to charities that help abused children. It's a good book and the money goes to a good cause.
At 8:29 you mention wanting an audio version of the meditations in this book. They can be found here www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003TSF7KS/ref=dm_ws_sp_ps_dp
Always waiting for these book reviews! I love all the books that you share since they are above the basic level (almost all books I tend to find myself are the basics ones.) And there's such a huge variety of topics - a new theme everytime! I love it! Thank you so much for doing these reviews. I hope you do them forever :)
I had to show my husband the thumbnail, because I am currently reading The Mists of Avalon and I've talking about that with him for like a month now! Unfortunately, this books are a little expansive in my currency now, but I am really glad you reviwed it, and I hope to be able to buy it soon!! Thank you Olivia, your opinion about "witchy books" is really important to me 😊
These books sound awesome! I feel very connected to Avalon--I had a past life there as a priestess that has come back to me in dreams and I feel I'm here now to remind the world of the isle's wisdom--and so I will definitely be adding these to my "to read" list. I hope audiobook versions come out soon, because I think the format would be more suited to listening rather than reading. Thanks for the review! Blessed be!
So excited that Jhenah's two books came in your box! I am a member of Sisterhood of Avalon which is a community that Jhenah is the Morgen of. It is incredible and we work the Cycle of Healing and the Cycle of Revealing throughout the year in community. These two books are like our guides in this process. It is a very scholarly focused work. You can check out the S.O. A. here www.sisterhoodofavalon.org
Also check out the Cards "The Avalonian Oracle Cards" to complete your work with the circle of healing. Thist Avalon Sister greets you and send you many blessing for your day.
I adore the Witches Book Box. I haven’t even gotten to touch my May’s books yet. I’m looking forward to reading them both. Especially due to my increased fascination in both shadow work & moon cycles lately, lol. Thanks for the review.🖤
Love the theme, Avalon. ^_^ I translated a teenage novel series once, Avalon: Web of Magic by Rachel Roberts. I'm truly into Celtic mythology. Though I don't do any kind of meditation, I think I might like the historical/mythological aspect of those books of yours. Thanks for reviewing them. :D
The intro was so beautiful! This was a great book review, I think it was laid out very nicely and the information was easy to understand. I'll definitely be looking into these books :)
When looking at the different times of the years I was reading the names and a few of the words I recognise because some of the words like Calan Gaeaf are the words for Halloween in Welsh
The isle of avalon, is near glastonbury in the county of sommerset in uk. Rumer has it, is where king arthur and queen guinivere are burried at the abbey.
I absolutely loved the introduction!!! 💜 And I probably would've massacred the author's name as well. LOL But kudos for trying! It sounded fine to me, but then again 🤷🏽♀️ I love your videos! Keep up the amazing work. Love & Light 💜
Hi Olivia! I know this video is a few years old but I was curious is you’ll be doing a book review on the newest book from Jhenah Telyndru - The Ninefold Way of Avalon: Walking the Path of the Priestess. 😊
I JUST Love watching your channel , thank you for always being here and lifting us up // may i ask do you have any more recommendations for books to read on Avalon I'd love to learn more of it , and any other magical books to get a old witch back in the game and inspire me to reconnect . i am still trying to learn , I have come to learn that i didn't know as much as i thought and the one who taught me yeah well she didn't do a good job and i am feeling a bit disconnected from my path . sadly i am alone here in Mississippi , I've tried to search for more like me but it seems to be hard and i just want to connect to more people like us .so i am really enjoying your videos .. thanks again , much love and light to you
I'm currently reading The Mythic Moons of Avalon, and I'm wondering if I need to purchase and read Avalon Within first you think? I'm pretty well versed in Avalonian history and folklore, so if it's just that then I could probably skip it. I agree that Moons does seem a bit repetitive and at times can get overly convoluted in the language, when a more straightforward method would have worked just fine imo. It's pretty incredible that the author basically invented this entire cycle working herself though, and I definitely want to use this method when I feel called to do more shadow work! I would've loved to have seen a few Avalonian rituals, spells, recipes, etc, but i do understand that her key focus here is shadow (aka inner psychological) work.
There is so much to explore when it comes to the mind and magic.. Beautiful intro BTW. These "books" are like soft tea time and winter nights by the fire. Blessed be .... Stay safe from the Tempest storm and ...Roses are always great for (wondering where this is coming from😃.."HI")..woman that have blossomed to become from in thier convictions and be who they truly are. #Love
When you say Avalon Within is more feminine based, would you recommend it to a man for the purpose of bringing out the feminine aspect of their personality (or the anima). I'm a (cis-hetero) man, coming to the craft mainly as a way of understanding myself and all aspects of my personality and the collective energy/consciousness of the universe (idk if that information would help you give a recommendation, but I figured it might). If not this book, are there any books you would recommend that address meditations or practices with the goal of individuating parts of one's personal consciousness/unconsciousness?
I think that's great! I only pointed out that it's more feminine based because may practitioners get frustrated with the push of the feminine archetype in modern practices, so it was more of a heads up rather than a warning. I think using the meditations and exercises in this book would be helpful if that's what you're looking for!
I am currently reading on tarot& palmistry . The originality of both cannot be pin pointed. Only estimated times with four diffrent parts of the world have been given. Next I am going to purchase books on Greek mythology for my collection.
Ok this is kinda off topic and a weird question but she talked about how it’s a feminine kinda book and I forgot that like dysphoria and trans people were a thing for a second and it hit me and the I started thinking, if you are nonbinary can u be straight? I mean technically if u don’t have a binary gender than female and male are opposite genders aren’t they? And that’s what being straight is. Idk I’m going insane rn, but great video, I enjoyed hearing about this book, this video made me wanna get back into reading but I also wanna binge watch some more of her other videos while I draw so...
Great reviews! Jhenah's books are awesome - I love them. You can find the guided meditations here on iTunes: music.apple.com/us/album/journeys-to-avalon-immrama-to-the-holy-isle/378978440
I think their Witches Book Box is a great deal! & I haven’t gotten any books that I wouldn’t want to eventually read. It’s a great way to stock up your witchy book shelves! :)
I need help. I can’t catch the authors name? I can’t even pronounce it I need the spelling. And the title of these two books? Please I’m trying to find them on Amazon.
I think Your Book Reviewer career has started. You are so amazing, I admire your work and your path. Blessings
Early people be like: **Quick, think of something funny to say!!**
So relatable it hurts XD
One minute through the video and WHAT A BEAUTIFUL INTRO!!!! Olivia, you're getting better and better!

Idk - the author of those books is a known child abuser... may not want to support her.

Have you considered reading for audible? The beginning got me hooked!
Have you listened to her 'teatime terror' story playlist here on TH-cam? She's phenomenal

This can actually be a great background for the teatime terrors
I'm going to write a book... but... you have to be the voice reading it for the audio book version.

Yes, you should also have the first one. And check out the Sisterhood of Avalon for going deeper in community in this work. www.sisterhoodofavalon.org
You should check out The SIsterhood Of Avalon.. Jhenah Telyndru is our Morgen. She is brilliant. I love her dearly.
There is so much to explore when it comes to the mind and magic.. Beautiful intro BTW.
These "books" are like soft tea time and winter nights by the fire.

Where to do you get your headbands?! Thank you for the reviews. They help me with determining which books to get.
