The Mysterious Dreamworld of Leonore Fini
I finally got this posted. Sometimes Mercury retrograde is actually helpful.
Surrealist Artist, Leonore Fini. I am sure she carries the Witchblood as all the Surrealists do, come to think of it!

Here are some nice Surrealist books [...] - What Is Tarot and Where Does it Come From?
The Devil’s Picture Book by Paul Huson
Open the book. Read the first page.
The classic 1972 book on the history of the Tarot Cards by Paul Huson called The Devil’s Picture Book, opens with one of the most evocative first pages about the “wicked pack of cards” ever written. So I quote the whole thing:
“Whether you [...] - Interview with the Queen of the Witches: Maxine Sanders
Maxine Interviewed in Dutch Documentary
I posted this so you could hear Maxine’s voice and have a sense of her presence. I would have liked to do a podcast with her, but she is shy of technology. I don’t blame her. If I lived in the green hills of Wales, that would be enough for me [...] - London: Spirits of the Land, The Faerie Queene

Seven years after my harrowing spontaneous initiation with the Horned God, I had finally drummed up the courage to ask for help. It was not easy to find [...] - London: How I Encountered the Spirits of the Land
The Faery Queen and the Horned God
In March 1998, I went to live in London, England. I had thought I would stay there for 18 months while I researched my Grail Bearers’ Tarot, but the Spirits of the Land had other plans for me. I have since come to believe they called me to the [...]
- Witches Familiars: Witchery of the White Sow
Witchery of the White Sow
The pig shares its symbolic value with the boar. In Mesopotamia, at Catal Huyuk, in shrine EVI8, rows of breasts molded over jaws and tusks of boars express the idea that life comes from death.- Buffie Johnson
But, I hear you say, “Isn’t the White Sow the beast of Cerridwen, and is [...] - Salome: The Seventh Queen
For you fiction lovers out there, the complete Part One of Salome: The Seventh Queen is posted under under Fiction on the navigation bar, or you can find the chapters listed in the side bar.
It is a draft of my own work. Part Two will begin when I get a response for Part One. Critiques, [...]
