Story
Enchantment. By Dr. Sharon Blackie’s definition, a vivid sense of belongingness to a rich and many-layered world, a profound and whole-hearted participation in the adventure of life. Enchantment is a natural, spontaneous human tendency - one we possess as children, but lose, through social and cultural pressures, as we grow older. It is an attitude of mind which can be cultivated: the enchanted life is possible for anyone. It is intuitive, embraces wonder, and fully engages the mythic imagination - but it is also deeply embodied in ecology, grounded in place and community.

Many of us feel trapped in a grind of constant change: rolling news cycles, the chatter of social media, our families split along partisan lines. We feel fearful and tired, on edge in our bodies, not quite knowing what has us perpetually depleted. For Katherine May, this low hum of fatigue and anxiety made her wonder what she was missing. Could there be a different way to relate to the world, one that would allow her to feel more rested and at ease, even as seismic changes unfold on the planet?

Feel like you don’t belong? You’re not alone. The world has never been more connected, yet people are lonelier than ever. Whether we feel unworthy, alienated, or anxious about our place in the world, the absence of belonging is the great silent wound of our times. Most people think of belonging as a mythical place, and they spend a lifetime searching for it in vain. But what if belonging isn’t a place at all? What if it’s a skill that has been lost or forgotten? With her signature depth and eloquence, Toko-pa maps a path to belonging from the inside out.

Myth is our wild way of telling the truth, of sharing stories that have our living earth speaking through them. There is an old insistence that we each have a twin we know nothing about. A wild, curious twin that was thrown out the window the night we were born, taking much of our energy with them. This story is a quest to find and court our wild twin, for they have something important to tell us. If there was something we were here to do in our few, brief years, we can be sure that the wild twin is holding the key.

Sometimes you slip through the cracks: unforeseen circumstances like an abrupt illness, the death of a loved one, a breakup, or a job loss can derail a life. These periods of dislocation can be lonely and unexpected. For May, her husband fell ill, her son stopped attending school, and her own medical issues led her to leave a demanding job. Wintering explores how she not only endured this painful time, but embraced the singular opportunities it offered. Ultimately Wintering invites us to change how we relate to our own fallow times.

It’s true, as they say, that we can only love others when we first love ourselves and we can only experience real joy when we stop running from pain. The key to understanding these truisms lies in remaining open to life in all circumstances, and here Pema Chödrön shows us how. Because when we embrace the happiness and suffering, intelligence and confusion that are a natural part of life, we can begin to discover a wellspring of courageous love within our hearts.

Once solved, it can provide a surprising answer to an unresolved question buried within the psyche.

Publisher's Summary
Unearths the stories of the little-known but powerful elder women in European myth and folklore, inspiring listeners to radically reimagine the last decades of their lives as the most dynamic of all
Western folklore and mythology are rife with brilliantly creative, fulfilled, feisty, and furious role models for aging women, despite our culture's focus on youthfulness. In her exciting new book, mythologist and psychologist Sharon Blackie explores these archetypes, presenting them in a way sure to appeal to contemporary women. Drawing inspiration from these examples, women can reclaim midlife as a liberating, alchemical moment rich with possibility and their elder years as a path to dynamic power.
After menopause, women can expect to live another forty to fifty years, making this stage of life longer than childbearing years. As Blackie describes it, midlife is the threshold to decades of opportunity and profound transformation, a time to learn, flourish, and claim the desires and identities that are often limited during earlier life stages. This is a time for gaining new perspectives, challenging and evolving our belief systems, exploring our calling, uncovering meaning, and ultimately finding healing for our accumulated wounds.

Brilliant!
Hagitude is a beautifully written book and I am thrilled that it is narrated by the author. Sharon removes the cloak of invisibility for women as they age, encouraging them to be comfortable with stepping into their creative power by exploring role models from mythology as well as modern times. Perfect timing.

Not trans friendly
Made it halfway through and then it took a sudden turn into terf territory. Apparently it's alright to not be defined by childbirth and fertility, as long as you were assigned the correct gender at birth. The author wonders why and laments the fact that no trans or non-binary folks have come forward on her community to have their stories mythified, pretty clear why we wouldn't want to engage with her on this.

Truly disappointing
Hagatude by Sharon Blackie
Is disappointing.
Truly disappointing due almost entirely from my expectations. I really thought it was about women archetypes, myths and legacies of certain older women and their influences on our soc-economic landscapes. This is only sprinkled.
It may be the first time CBC or BBC book recommendation and interviews have let me down. Hagatude is almost in it’s entirety a memoir of their menopause and post-menopausal life. Did I need to know about their husband’s midlife crisis, NO. Did I really need so much information about their cancer, NO. Not more than as a transition point that made them face their own mortality and thus an intro into the next elder woman archetype.
Disappointingly the author has curious views of transwomen. They seem perfectly happy accepting that non-mothers and mothers are both women; and that not having this pivotal experience does not mean one is not a woman. But apparently according to the author or at least how I read it, being trans woman means not truly part of the woman club because of the lack of biology ie. periods, menopause. I do not understand how one biological process not had does not exclude women from the woman experience but another biological process not experienced puts you in a woman's annex - part but apart. The author has a large section about biology. And it’s tedious, especially given how truly “spook” they are. I mean this in the way they have objects they collect and talk at length about -including fox skulls. She talks with animals and inanimate things and sees them as symbols or the universe sending messages. Like you can believe the crow is your dead mother, but not that a woman is born with the junk? Just so disappointing. Everyone has different experiences of womanhood that doesn’t make any experience less or more valuable, nor does it exclude. There is no one way of being.
We could break this book into 3 parts. 1 part Mythology about elder women, 1 part memoir, and 1 part Carl Jung fan-girl love. You could do a drinking game, take a shot when the author uses the Jung or Jung-practitioner. You wouldn’t be able to read any more after 5 or 10 pages.
As much as I thought this would be an interesting feminist book about empowerment in your older age, this author does not seem at all connected to my same reality. It doesn’t even seem to be feminist, just a woman’s book talking about their own experience and interpretations of the world. The author fits the narrative they tell to their reality and comfort level, not all the women archetypes or myths to show other ways of being.
Maybe I’m the wrong age, maybe the author and I are too many generations separated, maybe our realities and understanding of the universe is too different, but this book did not work for me.
It is elegantly written and seems to be well researched and supported in some places. Other places it’s very diary entry, literary review with no clear thesis.
This book is for anyone who enjoys myths, memoirs and Carl Jung. Possibly for those experience pre-menopause, menopause or are post menopausal but you’re going to have to enjoy myths, memoirs, Carl Jung.
