The Witch Figure - presented to a Women & Gender Studies Class Part 1
The traditional witch figure is situated in a time when women’s value – her work and her contributions - were diminished. After so many years of variable forms of incarnated “dark” mischief, there is suddenly an abundance of chatter about the witch figure on social media and everywhere. A new phenomenon emerges: she wants her power back. In this first of two videos, we look at a presentation that features how propaganda from the early printing press stoked tons of misinformation about women

“Carol Lee Campbell has written a lovely novella in The Rebel Rose... Her prose flows beautifully and her talents are especially on display when it comes to Matilde’s writing which is stirring, evocative, and, at times, quite sensual. Campbell paints a delicate yet intricate picture of Mathilde’s world as it grows and shrinks, as it becomes imperiled, and as it finds rich ground.

The Creatrix, the Dancer, the Healer: Archetypes of Ancient Power
Encouraging intuition and providing insight for self-revelation, Crone Stones is a new divination oracle. 33 porcelain stones, each inscribed in red ochre with a drawing corresponding to one of the energy forces of life, are based on messages found in goddess mythology worldwide. Crone Stones may be used simply by pulling a stone from the bag for a quick message, or by casting lay-outs to provide a greater contemplation of life’s issues.
Return to Wholeness: The New Book of Crone Stones received excellent reviews by the publications Crone Chronicles, Sage Woman Magazine, New Age Retailer and Magical Blend Magazine. The fully illustrated book (published in 2011 with Barclay Bryan Press), velveteen drawstring pouch and stones make up one set.
Each stone depicts an image evoking an instinctive response from the reader. The Dancer, who represents channeled physical energy, may reflect the youthful spirit’s need for freedom. The Weaver, who combines existing talents to create something new, asks the reader to recognize her individual abilities.
Crone Stones appeal to individuals who tap the holistic arts. Yoga lovers enjoy the stones for their sensory appeal, and find them useful for integrating their messages as interludes between postures and meditation. The triple goddess philosophies enmeshed in the system intrigue goddess worshippers. Tarot users can enhance their lay-outs by utilizing the stones during a casting session.
