Description
This 2-CD set began as a book of poems, Seasons of the Witch, by Patricia Monaghan, a pioneering leader in the Goddess movement. Her sister, Peggy Monaghan, gave this book as gifts to her musician friends in Alaska and California. The music was spontaneously born from Peggy and her friends as a response to the power in the poems. Peggy conceived this project as she heard the musical responses and decided to produce the original 1994 CD, as well as this new expanded version. Peggy and friends have written and performed 12 new songs for this 2-CD set, as well as including spoken word performances of Patricias poetry. It also features spectacular cover art by another sister, Kathleen Monaghan.

Crystalline voices and celestial harmonies rise up and fill the air. Songs and poems celebrate the nature of Woman, as revealed in the seasons. These are the faces of the Goddess and the stages of Woman - Maiden, Lover, Mother and Crone. Seasons of the Witch celebrates the Goddess by honoring the power of creation.
The promise of Spring.
The fulfillment of Summer.
The reflection of Autumn.
The resolution of Winter.
