'The Mysteries of Marigold' Book Launch

You are invited to join the celebration for the launch of 'The Mysteries of Marigold' by Bernadette O'Connor. Five years in creation deserves a special celebration and Bartholomews is the perfect location to connect with the mystery and magic that is Marigold.

A free-spirited Irish girl, whose life is veiled in mystique and magic from the moment she is found as a newborn, wrapped in a red shawl amidst a bed of marigolds in the rugged hills of The Burren.

She embodies courage, in her maiden season to womanhood, in the mystery of New York City, 1968—a time of transformation from dance clubs, university halls and the dark Mafia inner world.                                                          

Who is Marigold?

As her curiosity to explore the mystery knowledge of the world and her feminine expression intensifies, she encounters individuals of profound wisdom who guide her. Along the way, she discovers her dark goddess, faces death, betrayal, abuse, addiction, self-destruction. From a lover who teaches the power of love over fear, to women who share with her the ancient dance of life, to the dark stranger who guides her to remembering truth, Marigold’s journey demands she embrace her intuition and trust in her power, and ultimately embody the essence of the Divine Feminine.

Set against the landscapes of Ireland and New York, The Mysteries of Marigold is infused with themes of love, loss, passion, mystery, and spirituality, her story echoes of ancient wisdom and timeless truths.

In this stirring tale, Marigold's narrative serves as an illuminating path for others to find their way home. With reverence for both the Divine Masculine and the reclamation of the Divine Feminine— she of the light and the dark—she imparts the wisdom and the way of the Mother, the way of the Soul, the way of Love.

‘When you hear her call, go to her.’

—Clara, Aunt Maeve, Athena, Cynthia, Madame Rosaline, Sacnite and Brigid Malone

The Mysteries of Marigold brings to life the story of an enigmatic golden maiden, the daughter of many, a healer, guide and ancestral storyteller.
