Elaanie S invites the reader to consider the commonalities between her experiences of spiritual awakening and their own. Guiding them through a series of intellectual exercises, the reader naturally awakens to a better understanding of the obstacles which stand between themselves and a path free of fear and guilt. The Witch's Journey reviews the cultural influences of traditional religion and how the inaccuracies and deceptions of those systems permeate virtually ever facet of life and psychologically bind their followers. Throughout the process, the reader is challenged to do the work of questioning, introspection, journaling and, finally, ritual which serves to metaphorically and literally "cut the cords" which bind them to the indoctrination of Christian dogma. Elaanie S presents the reader with the logical alternative to the well-worn path - the spiritual freedom to pursue a deeper, more empowered relationship with the Divine.

It's not about the destination...What’s your favorite story? Does it have a hero who slays a dragon and saves a princess? Or a child of prophecy destined for greatness? Well, my favorite story is a little different. It’s the tale of a witch who travels the world, seeking nothing in particular. With no quest of her own, she’s free to wander wherever the wind takes her, adding a few pages to the story of whomever she meets before setting off on her next adventure. At the end of her travels, the witch takes on an apprentice who will one day begin her own journey. And so the cycle continues, or so the story goes. Now, the witch who starts the story anew...who could she be?

No two adventures are alike, and our young witch understands this better than most. She knows that for every happy ending, there is always a sad one-and some stories have no ending at all. But with experiences as varied as dream-demon encounters, magical wars, and stomping grapes, the life of a traveler promises one thing if nothing else-the journey is (almost) always worth it!

This is the story of my journey to find myself and my beliefs. My journey or rebirth began with a death. When my mother passed away, I was lost, hurt, confused, and seeking answers, answers I wasnt finding in all the usual places. In my grief and pain, I felt like parts of me had died as well. There had to be answers; there had to be a place that I belonged, where I felt whole and complete. And so my journey began and continues. I hope that sharing my journey may allow you an understanding and acceptance of your own. While they are separate and different journeys, we will cross paths upon the spiral of time and maybe even meet someday. Who can say? So I hope you enjoy my story, and may your own be as interesting for you as mine has been so far for me.

IT'S NOT ABOUT THE DESTINATION... ​Fresh encounters and warm reunions abound on the next leg of Elaina’s journey. A witch in a birdcage. A distant princess and a phantom thief. A pinch of stardust. Hair the color of midnight. Sisters from the Country of Truth Tellers. A traveler’s path intersects with others’ only for fleeting moments, you see. Sometimes, the hardest lesson to learn is that every hello leads to a good-bye...and the journey never ends.

A gentle and beguiling tale of a young witch's travels, based on a best-selling light novel series. As the wandering witch Elaina continues on her travels, she meets a boy who collects happiness in a bottle to give to someone he loves, a bedridden young man who makes peace with his end, and a mysterious princess in the royal palace of a ruined country. When travel fatigue begins to set in, Elaina reunites with her mentor Fran, the Stardust Witch, who rekindles Elaina's passion for her journey.

It’s a wonder how one witch can see so many fantastic places yet never settle down. Then again, when your average encounter involves biting into a poisonous apple, meeting a clumsy spy, rendezvousing with a flying dragon, finding a sunken city, explor­ing a frozen town, and more...you might find yourself reluctant to stay in one place, too. Be that as it may, this isn’t the case for everyone. In fact, there’s nothing Amnesia wants more than to go home, if only she could piece her memories back together...
