Unveil the divine feminine within Wicca through Maiden, Mother, and Crone. Our exploration dives into the symbolism, significance, and reverence for this triadic deity.
Carly Montgomery has only one goal as she arrives in Sydney, Australia: Be the world's best maid of honor. And then, when she gets back to New York City, she's going to figure out how to get promoted so she doesn't spend the rest of her ballet career in the corps de ballet playing Peasant Maiden #4.But the second she steps off the plane, she runs into trouble—and into Nick Jacobs, the most uptight, judgmental, inconveniently attractive man she's ever met. And to their mutual horror, Nick is also in Sydney for a wedding. The same wedding. In which he is the best man.Carly will do anything for her best friend, including running all over Sydney with Nick—Nick who has his life together, Nick who's made the transition out of ballet into photography so perfectly, Nick who has the most irritatingly sharp cheekbones and stormy blue eyes. And when the director of New York Ballet announces that she'll be making her decision about promotions ahead of schedule, Carly chooses to stay in Sydney, even if it means shelving her pride to ask Nick for help.Nick Jacobs is coming back to Sydney with a secret. His life in Paris, where he recently retired from ballet, has fallen apart. With no girlfriend and no new career to speak of, Nick can't bear to tell his friends at home the humiliating truth. And after fifteen years dancing overseas, what does home even mean anymore?Nick doesn't want to team up with Carly Montgomery, a human hurricane who creates chaos every time she walks in the room, but sparring with her makes him feel the most alive he's felt in months. When she asks him for help securing her promotion, he sees an opportunity to kickstart his own flagging career. Looking at Carly through his lens all day starts to change how Nick sees her, and soon, he can't stop staring. Carly's a human hand grenade, but suddenly Nick wouldn't mind pulling the pin.When she finds out the truth about him, though, the explosion might destroy them both.

Mothers, aunts, and grandmothers shower their girls with pampering (dyeing hands red with beets, cornmeal footscrub, massage, hair braiding, etc.) Then, all gather in the red tent for the Grandmothers Story Song. The power of story is felt by women and girls alike. A meditation grounds all. A handmade red medicine pouch necklace is gifted to each girl. Women's wisdom is shared in circle. The Charge of the Four Directions is spoken to the girls, and tokens are given to the girls for medicine pouches. Girls do an art project in silence, while sponsors write a letter to their girls. Mothers call the full name of each girl to walk under the red bridge. Sponsors cut of a tiny braid of hair to signify the end of girlhood, and young women receive their medicine pouch necklace and a rose as they begin their journeys. Everyone celebrates with a meal and red velvet cake. Welcome to womanhood, young maidens!
This daylong adventure had me on a wild goose chase to find the mysterious monument for Elenora French, the young girl who fell from Maiden Cliff over a century ago. My goal was to find the most interesting dog-friendly hike at Camden Hills State Park for the trail guide I'm working on. While researching, I discovered photos of the white cross at the top of Maiden's Cliff, overlooking Lake Megunticook.
