Meredydd - A US Witch

A synchronistic convergence of multiple blessings
has made it possible for me to be planning to
attend The Day for Doreen in London on Sept. 13.
Just like finding the Craft many years ago, this will be
a home-coming of sorts and a day of true celebration
for me.Read More

Author Notable Women of Sussex where Doreen is included (of course) She says:

DOREEN EDITH VALIENTE née Dominy,
(1922–1999) author and witch. An architect’s daughter, she was born in Surrey, grew up in Dorset, Wales and Hampshire and was educated at a convent. As a child she was fascinated by witchcraft and magic; as a teenager she cast a spell on her mother’s work colleague and became a clairvoyant; in adulthood she studied spiritualism and theosophy.

Vanity Says:

I just wanted to say thank the Goddess that someone has made a web site for Doreen. Sadly she seems to be unappreciated and largely forgotten. What an amazing woman she was and a true shining light. Thank you for making an old witch very happy. Did you know the witches date book doesn’t even mention her? Terrible. Xxx

Amanda Says:

‘I am really looking forward to attending the Day for Doreen conference in London in September. I have wanted to learn more about the Wiccan path for many years and feel privileged to be a part of what will be my first Pagan Conference.
It will be fascinating to have the opportunity to meet and listen to some of the most eminent witches from all around the world, to hear of their experiences and to honour one of the founders of modern Witchcraft today. I can’t wait!’

Katherine Says:

Just to send a note to you all to thank you from the bottom of my heart, that you have created such a beautiful site in honor of Doreen. As a practicing witch for over 25 years now, a High Priestess, and a mentor to 3 Acolytes myself, one whom has been initiated to the 2nd, and is now forming her own coven, it’s amazing how time flies by. I can remember picking up Doreen’s books, from ABC WITCHCARFT to Where Witchcraft Lives, and looking at the dust cover of the nude woman with her bare bottom in the breeze of wheatfields, and almost gasping in shock.  To Read More please Click Here
