Description
In The Night House, bestselling author and word-witch Danielle Dulsky peels back the layers of these timeless narratives to reveal their potent role as guides for navigating today's world. Historically kept and passed on by women, fairy tales are distinguishable from other types of folk tales by their supernatural elements, and because of this, they were often dismissed as trivial fantasies for women and children. Danielle illuminates how this marginalization kept these stories safe from the witch-hunter's noose and allowed women to safely store and transmit their sacred age-old wisdom for new generations to uncover and explore. Her fresh and relevant commentary will support your kinship with the Earth, ancestors, and your own living myth. The Night House shows how a single fairy tale is actually a treasure box of coded knowledge and magickal practice that has remained largely intact, preserved under the floorboards of the Yaga's hut for us to find.

About the Author
Reviews
-- Trista Hendren, author of The Girl God and coeditor of Re-Visioning Medusa
"Danielle Dulsky not only invites us into mystical realms full of fairy tales and the magick and wisdom found within, but she builds a bridge from those tales into our own lives. She shows us how to travel the road of the imaginative seeker through the Night House and cross over the bridge with that magick intact, ready to transform our daily experiences of the mundane into endless meaning and connection, forever touched by the fleeting and mischievous creatures of myth. This is the kind of treasure-hunting symbolism and sensory-drenched storytelling that we need to awaken and integrate our most wild and loving selves."
-- Ora North, author of I Don't Want to Be an Empath Anymore
"In The Night House, Danielle Dulsky gives us permission to embrace our personal paradox, the yearning for both stability and wildness, knowledge and innocence, solitude and connection. Her book provides support to walk our own path, guided by the lessons of light and shadow found in creative retellings of folk tales and myths from around the world. The Night House helps us weave our story and the world story together through ritual, altar work, journaling, and sacred practices, all the while humming our soul song, which we find with the support of the diverse cast of characters brought to vivid life through Dulsky's lyrical writing. Lovers of folk tales and myth will revel in this feast of stories that reveal, celebrate, and empower the wild nature within."
-- Carmen Spagnola, author of The Spirited Kitchen and Spells for the Apocalypse
