You won't find any information about her - neither her background, nor the circumstances or exact date of her death. All you know is that her real name was Maryann Simcoe, and that she joined Carlos Castaneda's group in the 70s while a student at the University of California, where she received a PhD in philosophy and anthropology. Here's what she has to say about herself in her book The Magical Transition.

Taisha Abelard is one of four students of Don Juan Matus. For a year, she studied at his «magic house» in Mexico. She was a member of the so-called Castaneda group of “witches” along with Florinda Donner and Carol Tiggs. She mysteriously disappeared with her associates shortly after Carlos Castaneda's death in 1998.

“Magical Crossing” is a fascinating story of a young woman who “accidentally” found herself in the house of a molfar and stayed there for a long time – to master the mystical practices of ancient Mexico. Taisha Abelard describes her training in detail - physical and breathing exercises, techniques for “reliving” her own past and long-term living in the trees. All of this guarantees you health and eternal youth, and most importantly, it helps you accumulate enough energy to make the “magical transition” - an act of complete and final liberation.

For the reader who does not believe in magic, this book will be an informative novel about the evolution of the female nature, and will help to rethink the false concepts that society has imposed on women for centuries. And what if dreams of a betrothed on a white horse are just part of a sinister plan to enslave female energy? So the book is a must-read for all feminists and feminists.
