Brida is about magic and it is a truly magical story. Is it a mere coincidence that just when I wanted to learn so badly about tarot card reading I came across this book? This book has developed a strong urge in me to learn all things magical. It has motivated me to go out there and find out the truth and relevance about all these things we hear but don't believe in. Things like witchcraft and reincarnations. This story narrated by our beloved master story-teller Paulo Coelho is a journey of a young girl named Brida who wants to learn about the Tradition of Sun and Tradition of Moon. She is learning these traditions from two teachers - one male called Magus and one female called Wicca. Paulo as always in his highly simple and engaging way manages to grip us from the start in this fantastic story. At one point I literally felt this is MY story and I WANT TO BECOME BRIDA.
This story also addresses the basic question or one of the basic struggles of mankind 'The Search for a Soulmate.' Is it possible that every person has a soulmate? Is it possible to have more than one soulmate in our life? What if we have to choose between these soulmates? Whom do we choose and whom do we let go? or 'WHY do we let go of people we need the most? When does Duty become more important than Destiny?
To know answers to all these questions you should read BRIDA or you can simply read it because you are a HUGE Paulo Coelho Fan and everything he writes straightaway connects with your soul.
