Hagitude
A woman's journey through midlife and beyondstories are spells; they change things
Two books
Hagitude and Wise Women are two books written by psychologist and mythologist Dr Sharon Blackie, the award-winning author of the bestselling If Women Rose Rooted, and five other books of fiction and nonfiction.
Our story begins with the bone-deep metamorphosis that begins as we approach midlife, in the years leading up to menopause. As we slowly begin to burn away old identities and outdated structures, we enter a state of conscious incubation in which a new life can be dreamed into being.
