Starting strong with Jo Graham’s Hand of Isis (2009). The author chose to overshadow Cleopatra’s divine splendor with one of her handmaidens. Altogether, cheaply written with a sprinkling of philosophy that I can appreciate. Not a bad book, but I’d rather Cleopatra be a little more empowering, after all, she was the queen!
Ancient Egypt was truly a fascinating culture, domesticating cats, preserving the remains of their dead, empresses. They shaped our lives, our spirits, our history (ofc), our superstition, our planet, our cosmos. Everything about Egypt fascinates me. I have a few books about druids, but they’re actually about Rome.
I like to think of very nurturing people as druids. People who nurture the earth, and pass on their wisdoms to the young. Like my father. When I say „I’m going to p*** off some druids tonight.” I’m talking about hippies.
