Donald Weiser, founder Sam Weiser's son, in addition to running the bookshop, began publishing esoteric, occult, pagan, alternative living books, and that tradition continues today. Alas it's not a bookstore, where we can go and see what jumps off the shelf, but you can visit our website and browse the Weiser books. (It's www.redwheelweiser.com.) I didn't live in NY during the time you mention. I was in Minneapolis, where I was in a women's group with Patricia Monaghan--who first introduced me to the Triple Goddess. Later I actually got to publish books on the goddess, and so much more, and now I feel it's our calling to carry on and make sure the work of many traditions survives. Thanks for your part in all this.

They were great and the people that worked in them were so friendly, they knew their stuff. Now it is more on line shopping for me. Don't care for the big chain stores. <br /><br />(((HUGS)))Dedehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02821482775305463539noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2795332554006054086.post-36295887194224389642010-07-08T16:37:32.096-04:002010-07-08T16:37:32.096-04:00Oh Mary you are so right!

I must be getting old because those mega stores so plush and vast don't speak to me at all! Anyway, let's hope this summer is not a scorcher so we can all enjoy it. Hope you have a nice cool evening XOAlinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17191711137727270010noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2795332554006054086.post-2185207502801791302010-07-08T16:28:30.840-04:002010-07-08T16:28:30.840-04:00So nice to sift through our memories.

I ...Ah...the Magickal Childe...I loved that store. I was sad to hear they had closed. I was about 15 or so...1985/86, and my mom and I were walking around in the Village. We happened passed the store and I stopped in my tracks. I felt so drawn to the store, I told my mom "I HAD TO" go in there. I was fascinated with all the things they had there...I felt sorta at home in there store even though I had no idea about any thing they sold. But that was the first time I was drawn to the Pagan Path, which was right out side that store. After that, I was only able to go back 2 or 3 times before I moved to FL. I wish I had taken the time back then to really explore and get to know the store better.Morgaine Pendragonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18121338493723791466noreply@blogger.com
