A very interesting book, and relevant to our times. A discussion of how magic and spirituality can come together with activism and politics. ( )

Starhawk's followup to the Spiral dance, this book has a message, as opposed to being an overview and guidebook type of tome. She talks about the philosophy of her religion, and ties it into activism and environmentalism, and lays out a philosophy of life, basically. A bit dry and didactic, but that is not too surprising with such a subject. ( )

Book description

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0807010375, Paperback)

Featuring narrative, chants, songs, and rituals, Dreaming the Dark (100,000 copies sold) brilliantly combines the world of magic and spirituality with the world of political and social change. This fifteenth anniversary edition includes a new preface by the author.

Dreaming the Dark is [Starhawk's] best book; it offers myths of fulfillment, rituals of healing, an unusual but perhaps ultimately pragmatic cultural perspective, and a vision for survival and growth.

--The Bloomsbury Review
