A life partner is a companion whom you trust and depend on during your life.

A soulmate is someone who comes into your life to teach you, enrich you, push you and transcend you into a higher state of being and consciousness. I feel sorry for buying this book, it is costly for a mass market paperback and it didn’t even deliver few of my expectations.There are many misconceptions about the term soul mate and that of a life partner.

I can write a lot of reasons why I don’t like this book but the more I list the more I feel cheated. Also, Brida the female protagonist is not an interesting character. It was supposed to teach some great mystical lesson, but it fell flat for me.

As if it wasn’t explained in a satisfying way. The book keep on talking about tradition of the sun and the tradition of the moon but I still feel vague about those two sciences. As Brida seeks her destiny, she struggles to find a balance between her relationships and her desire to become a witch. She met the Magus who taught her about the Tradition of the Sun, and Wicca who taught her about the Tradition of the Moon. Her search leads her to people of great wisdom, who begin to teach Brida about the spiritual world. She has long been interested in various aspects of magic but is searching for something more. Alchemist provides the mystical possibilities in life and a touch of innocence while Brida is a confusing search of meaning of love and magic.īrida is about a young Irish girl who went out to search for the meaning of love and to learn about magic. I liked The Alchemist because of the author’s sweet insights which nowhere to find in Brida. I try to keep my optimism hoping that the book might have a great ending to make up for it, but when I finally got to the end, there’s nothing much. As much as I want to finish this book, it hardly get my interest and the more I read the more I get disappointed. I have to put it down once in awhile and pick up something more interesting in between my read. This is the second book of Paulo Coelho that I have read, the first one is The Alchemist which I like. Disappointment, defeat, and despair are the tools God uses to show us the way.” You need to have sufficient courage to make mistakes. “When you find your path, you must not be afraid.
