Finding Elen: The Quest for Elen of the Ways

Description

This is a remarkable quest for the elusive deer goddess led by Caroline Wise
with contributions from Caitlin Matthews, Andrew Collins and others. With its
rich harvest of words and ideas, it brings the figure of Elen into focus more
than ever before. And what a dazzling figure she is; part goddess, part dream,
part saint, a green lady and a water nymph, primordial mother and patroness of
deer, and guardian of the Old Straight Tracks and solar alignments. Her name
is remembered even in healing plants. If this book does nothing more (and it
will surely do much more) it will encourage people to dig deeper into the loam
of tradition to follow the footsteps of the divine Elen of the Ways. Elen is
as real as the roads named after her, as solid as the ancient paths that carry
her presence and story across vast tracts of Britain and the European
continent and beyond. What an intriguing and exhilarating journey it is. Read
