When I was researching this blog, I was surprised to find almost nothing on the interwebz for Issac Bonewits quotes. You’d think that someone who literally wrote the book on magic (yellow magic, specifically) would have at least one or two Pinterest boards devoted to him. Nope. Nada. Not a quote to be found.
So in honor of his birthday tomorrow, I’ve put together a couple graphics of quotes from his books. I also highly recommend checking out the blog on his site, which is still being maintained by his partner, co-author, and widow Phaedra Bonewits. Also, some other good links for information are –
Isaac Bonewits Official Page (essentially the same since he last edited it in 2010 HERE
Ár nDraíocht Féin: A Druid Fellowship (founded by Bonewits) HERE
What I Learned From Isaac Bonewits by John Beckett HERE
Isaac and Phaedra Bonewits Facebook page HERE
Facebook posting by The Smart Witch, with info and a list of books by Isaac and Phaedra Bonewits HERE
Oh, and I would swear that I owned Bonewits’ Essential Guide to Witchcraft and Wicca, but I get the feeling I loaned it out years ago, and it never returned. After reacquainting myself with his work, I plan to replace it my library (and add a few of his other works) in the very near future.
Happy birthday, Mr. Bonewits. You are missed.
Balance and balancing apposing forces seem to becoming a theme for me this week. Thanks for this perspective from Isaac Bonewits.
You’re very welcome, Diana. It was timely for me as well.
