Praise for Seasons of Moon and Flame

“Danielle Dulsky is the poet of this generation of Witches, weaving the magical art of storytelling and ritual into our lives with Seasons of Moon and Flame. If we listen closely, we find that her voice is running through our very blood and bones and holds the keys to our ancestral wildness.”

— Ora North, author of I Don’t Want to Be an Empath Anymore

“Bold, exquisite, empowering, and healing in its concoction and execution, Seasons of Moon and Flame is an exceptional achievement and an essential read.”

— Mat Auryn, author of Psychic Witch: A Metaphysical Guide to Meditation, Magick & Manifestation

“There’s a stern spirituality about this book, the whiff of a potent potion and strong medicine cooking by the fireside. A hint of surprise. To wander through the textual landscapes conjured once again by the magisterial stroke of Danielle Dulsky’s pen is to recognize that the world, like the home of the crone at the edge of the forest, is brimming with magic. Good, healing, relational, intimate, emergent magic. And we do need magic today! We need a way of knowing that enchantment has never been in short supply, even here in the seemingly dour space of the modern. We need to feel this in our bones, and be touched in a touchless world. This book is a map that leads not to the exotic faraway, but to the shocking and orgasmic nearby. Travel at your own risk.”

— Bayo Akomolafe, author of These Wilds Beyond Our Fences and founding curator of the Emergence Network

“My community and followers know that I would never steer them wrong when it comes to content that can shift and inspire their lives. Danielle Dulsky continually creates works of the soul through her writing. The yearning to come back home, back to the roots of who you are, will envelop your bones in this book. A calling not only to remember who you are but to remember the simplicity of it all in the unraveling of the spirit, land, and flesh.”

— Juliet Diaz, author of Witchery: Embrace the Witch Within

“As punk icon Henry Rollins once said, ‘Knowledge without mileage is bullshit.’ Danielle Dulsky is the living embodiment of this truth. Seasons of Moon and Flame connects readers to a more intimate relationship with themselves, while also illuminating their uniquely important role in the dance of life. As Danielle explores throughout her book, there’s such beauty in the haunting and intoxicating experience of life’s seasons. That said, perhaps it’s apropos that I write these words at 3:13 AM accompanied by a beautifully deafening silence — embracing my own current season of late-night creative expression. Danielle’s guidance, experience, practices, and teachings will spark the revolutionary heart of anyone ready to live their ‘year(s) of wild’ to the fullest. It certainly did mine.”

— Chris Grosso, author of Indie Spiritualist, Everything Mind, and Dead Set on Living

“Danielle Dulsky has given us a rhapsody in celebration of the Holy Wild within and around every awakened woman (and hopefully some men). Come ready to listen to treespeak and crow poetry and encounter lusty egg-bearing grandmothers who can fill an egg-shaped hole in the heart. You’ll be invited to step out of linear time into moon cycles and what Australia’s First People call the All-at-Once. You’ll breathe the medicine smoke of sacred stories and be aroused to step outside the tame land and embody the secret wishes of your soul.”

— Robert Moss, bestselling author of The Secret History of Dreaming and Dreaming the Soul Back Home
