Walking with Persephone
Walking with Persephone: A Journey of Midlife Descent and Renewal | Molly Remer
1 post | 1 read | 1 to read
Midlife can be a time of great change - inner and outer. How do we journey through this...and what can we learn in the process? Molly Remer is our personal guide to the unraveling and reweaving required in midlife. She invites us to take a walk with the goddess Persephone, whose story of descent into the Underworld has much to teach us. This book is a journey of soul-rebuilding, of putting the pieces of oneself back together. Walking with Persephone weaves together personal insights and reflections with experiences in practical priestessing, family life, and explorations of the natural world. It advocates opening our eyes to the wonder around us, encouraging the reader to both look within themselves for truths about living, but also to the earth, the air, the animals, and plants we share our lives with. Part memoir, part poetry, part soul guide, Molly's evocative voice is in the great American tradition of sacred nature writing.

Navigating the female midlife burnout of being all things to all people whilst holding to a sense of self formed in scraps of leftover time. I liked that she shares her experience as it unfolds; it feels more inclusive than handing down wisdom after the event: the reader walks with her, too. The downside is that it gets a bit "samey" and part of me wanted a plan to follow. I'm up for the journalling, oracle cards and time alone in nature but... 3*

Suet624 Even though I‘m assuming I‘m past the midlife marker this sounds like it could be interesting to check in on. 1y
