‘Suddenly the sky overhead is alive. From east and southeast, west and northwest, large black birds fly, travelling in their groups of hundreds are swirling, cawing, interweaving, dancing a greeting in the air. The sky is thick black feathered. We watch slack jawed as they combine and dissipate above our heads. Then, without signal or warning, they circle the heart of the wood and land in the trees, into hidden roosts, and silence falls once more.’
After months of feeling lost and burned out, a chance encounter with crows began an adventure in the dark woods – inner and outer – leading to a strange and powerful initiation.
Strikingly illustrated by the author, with contributions from over thirty women – artists, healers, authors – midlife women who have also been called by the strange magic of crows at decisive moments in their lives.
Enter the dark woods. Follow the crow, the moon and the mushroom on a journey of transformation and remembering.
