This beautifully illustrated guide is the perfect gift for infusing magic into everyday life through a variety of practices including astrology, witchcraft, tarot, crystals, and magical recipes and spells.

Magic lives within all of us. It is our intuition, our power, our inner wisdom, and the energy we put out into the world. You don’t need to have a special gift to practice magic. You also don’t need to be defined as anything other than yourself to practice magic. Magicka demystifies the world of magic, making its concepts, terms, and practices accessible and approachable. Magicka emboldens modern mystics with ancient wisdom to embark on a journey of self-exploration by helping to connect us with our spiritual selves, and to tap into and trust our intuition in order to be confident and empowered in any situation, as well as for self-care, healing, and general wellness.

Through the guidance of author Carlota Santos, readers will discover how to harness the magic within themselves and manifest it in their lives. They will learn the energy of each astrological sign, how to set up a sacred space, and how to grow and maintain a magical garden and harness the energy properties of plants and herbs in a spell or ritual. There’s also a guide to using essential stones and crystals (for example, when the moon is in Taurus, summon the powers of rose quartz and sapphire for self-love) as well recipes and rituals of all kinds. Seeking romantic love? Try the Gaelic Beltane ritual for attracting love, which includes a flower bath and candle ceremony. Or strengthen self-reflection and inner brightness with a ritual using white candles, wooden boxes, and laurel and lion’s tooth leaves during the summer solstice celebration of Litha. Jam-packed with fun and easy-to-digest information in a beautiful, gifty package, Magicka is the ultimate resource for magic novices and experts alike.

How long have you been studying astrology? If you've been practicing for a year and don't feel comfortable reading an actual horoscope, then this is the book you need to read! You'll learn to "reason astrologically" and discover how to put the planets and the aspects together. You'll learn how to figure out the meaning of Venus aspects, or your fixed T-square, or that upcoming Mars transit to your Moon. Rather than encouraging you to learn by rote, Donna Cunningham gives you a structured approach so you can let the astrological symbolism flow through you and out to your client.

Cunningham teaches a minimalist style of reading a chart as the best way to start. You'll discover which technique you want to use, and how to let go of the many techniques you may want to play with later. This "unclutters" the chart so you can begin to really see what's there. You'll learn what you need to know to be able to talk for that first hour with your client. Remember, there is a lot that can be said about a horoscope -- so much material is hidden in the circle that you could spend hours and weeks discovering it all. While this may be a lifelong interest for you, you need to talk sensibly without overwhelming the client, and after you've read this book, you'll be able to just that!

'I truly believe that every one of us has a purpose here on Earth. You came here with a little seed of your soul planted within you containing all the lessons, experiences and adventures that your soul will go through in this lifetime in order to grow, evolve and awaken. I want to share with you what I have discovered in my decades of walking this path and, in turn, help you to discover the journey of your own soul, for all our paths may be different and part of your journey is for you to discover yours.' – Kirsty Gallagher

In her powerful new book, Kirsty Gallagher, the UK’s leading voice in modern-day spirituality, steers you towards your deep intrinsic inner guidance, in three parts.

In Part 1, you’ll uncover how to tap into Your Cosmic Purpose and journey back to your soul self.

In Part 2, you’ll look at practical ways you can begin to live and embody your cosmic purpose. From raising your vibration, healing your self-worth wounds and exploring past lives, through to overcoming fears and listening to the whispers of your soul, you’ll learn all you need to live a life that’s true to your soul’s path.

In Part 3, you’ll look at your individual birth chart and astrological transits, helping you discover that you have far more magic, purpose and potential to offer this world than you could have ever imagined.

Your Cosmic Purpose will help you find your anchor within, the guiding light which will provide stability, confidence and joy even through the challenging times we live in.

The work of Giorgio Agamben, one of the world's most important living philosophers, has been the object of much scrutiny. Yet, there is one dimension of his thought that remains unexamined by scholars: the presence of the ancient science of astrology in his writings. This book, the first of its kind, identifies the astrological elements and explains the implications of their usage by Agamben. In so doing, this study challenges us to imagine Agamben's thought in a radically new light. A critical account of the presence of astrology and related themes in Agamben's writings, ranging from the earlier works to the more recent publications, illustrates that the astrological signature constitutes a mode of philosophical archaeology that allows for an enhanced understanding of concepts that are central to his works, such as potentiality, the signature, bare life and biopolitics.
