If reading Debra May Macleod's historical fiction novels on the Vestal Virgins of ancient Rome inspired you to light a candle and think of the eternal flame (why not? they say everything old is new again), this nonfiction offering may interest you. It shares the author's personal experience with this ancient religion and offers ways - some lighthearted, others more meaningful - for those who are so inclined to incorporate it into their modern life. What if your home was more sacred than any church or temple? What if you could understand why looking into a flame makes you feel calm and reverential? What if you could find greater meaning and happiness in your home and life? If you've ever felt drawn to the "old ways," the New Vesta Secret may be for you. A Note from the Author: I wrote this little book back in 2013, not too long after I had started honoring Vesta in a structured way and around the time that I first began to write novels on her priestesses. It is a personal account of how I, someone who always had slight regard for religion, came to know Vesta. It is also a snapshot of what was happening in my life at the time and how incorporating this ancient spirituality into it affected me (something it continues to do even more so today, and in new ways). If you are just discovering Vesta, it may be of interest to you. I wish you all the best on your journey.
