rituals and practices exploring the mysteries of the Goddess
Hekate. In this book Tara Sanchez draws together her knowledge of
ancient practices and literature merging it with her personal
experiences and ideas. Thoroughly modern, but steeped in history,
this is a book of rituals, meditations, divinations and other
techniques through which the reader is invited to explore the
magick of this ancient goddess of the crossroads, sorcery and
witchcraft. The reader is introduced to essential practices such as
keeping a magickal journal, setting up the altar, ritual
purification, sacred space, preparing incenses and making a ritual
robe; as well as more advanced practices such as ritual gestures,
sacred vowels and dream incubation. Other techniques covered
include knot magick and phylacteries, psychic development and the
use of banishing rituals. The exercises in this book present the
beginner with everything they need, and the experienced
practitioner with a new and fresh perspective. Divination is a very
popular area of study amongst those interested in modern witchcraft
and magic, and this book presents a unique Hekatean approach to
using and interpreting the Major Arcana of the Tarot. Through
drawing together ideas from ancient literature and applying it to
modern works, the author has created the Oracle of Her Sacred
Fires. This oracle is a system of divination by dice and draws on
the writings of dozens of modern priests, priestesses and mystics
who contributed to the anthology Hekate Her Sacred Fires (d'Este,
2010) - a wonderful blend of old and new The comprehensive

to enhance workings with the Goddess Hekate. They include material
on Hekate and the other Gods, herbs, plant and animal
correspondences, other spiritual beings such as daemons, the winds
and the four elements - as well as techniques for reduction sigils
and planetary hours. Filled with a blend of ancient and modern
wisdom, ritual, technique and theory - this book is essential
reading for complete beginners, intermediate students and
experienced hands who are looking for relevant 21st century

In The Art of Forecasting using Solar Returns, Anthony Louis
provides the reader with a solid historical background on the
technique and lays out clearly how Morin, one of the greatest
astrologers of all time, used it in the 17th century. He then

example - most from recent history featuring recognizable
celebrities and also a few persons known to the author. Every
aspect of return interpretation is raised and examined, including
those promoted by the few modern-day writers on the subject. By the
end of this dense and thorough book the reader is offered a

even the most crowded bookshelf!

In the midst of the religious ferment, foreign invasions, and
internal political strife that beset Italy before the full effects
of the Counter-Reformation, the powerful and humble alike turned to
popular prophecy for guidance and solace. Ottavia Niccoli examines
here the forms of these prophecies--including interpretations of
natural disasters, abnormal births, floods, and planetary
conjunctions--and gives examples of how they were transmitted from
the lower classes to the elite through street singers, apocalyptic
preachers, astrologers, and printers. By tracing the ongoing
revision of the prophecies, Niccoli reveals them as an indication
of how various levels of society viewed events of the time, as a
form of propaganda for such causes as anti-Lutheranism, and as a
reflection of the interaction between "high" and "low" culture.
Based on popular leaflets, diaries, civic chronicles, and
iconographic sources, this book explores the expression of a
culture in which nature, religion, and politics formed a unified
system with a uniform code of interpretation. It connects the
decline of prophecy in Italy with the end of the Italian wars and
the beginning of the Counter-Reformation, when popular preaching
was banned and charismatic religion discouraged.
Noticing synchronicity - or random coincidences that strike us as
meaningful - allows us to align our life path with the flow of the
universe. This is the first-ever oracle to draw on the power of
synchronicity to give you insight into your problems, answer your
questions and highlight previously unconsidered patterns and
potential pathways in your life. There are 57 hexagonal cards in
the deck, each with 8 symbols, plus an 80pp booklet profiling each
of the 57 symbols and giving instructions on how to use the cards.
For instant insight, choose two cards at random and find the symbol
that matches - there will only be one. Information about the
meaning of the symbolism is given in the booklet, but ultimately
it's up to you to interpret the symbol based on what it means for
you. For a more in-depth answer to your problem, choose two cards
for each of these three questions: Where are you coming from? Where
are you now? Where are you going? Note the matching symbol in each
case and see what it mean to you and what insights it throws up for
the past, present and future of your situation. Then arrange the
chosen cards in a circle, pull the final card - the intuition card
- and place it in the centre. Which symbols match? Which ones
predominate? What does it mean to you? The booklet offers a
contemplation and a meditation for each symbol to help you
interpret the symbols. The deck uses a wide range of symbols,
including Jungian archetypes, contemporary icons, and images from
alchemy, science and mysticism - from the Kabbalah's tree of life
and the yin yang symbol to images of an anchor, a wave, a spider's
web, and a mirror. As you search for the synchronicity and enjoy
the magic of finding it through this deck, you will find that
synchronicity comes up more and more in your everyday life. What
can synchronicity tell you?
In the ancient realm of the Celts, the seer was a person who opened
a window to reveal a complete view of the cosmos, in which the
otherworld and the everyday world interconnect. This was the
essence of true perception and wisdom, known as glefiosa, or
'bright knowledge'. For the seer, the babbling of the stream, the
swaying of treetops in the wind, the hunting and foraging of
animals are all brimful of deeper meaning. The Art of Celtic
Seership shows how to connect with this visionary wisdom, nurture
it in ourselves and harness it to live in harmony with each other
and with the earth, and to bring profound insight and understanding
to our day-to-day existence. It describes the tools and techniques
of the druids, bards and seers of old, and explains how we too can
draw inspiration from the natural world and open ourselves to
developing our prophetic and visionary powers. Practical exercises
include calling upon your ancestors, working with your dreams,
cultivating a connection with the faery folk, experimenting with
trance states, entering into the consciousness of the stones, trees
and other natural features around you, asking a question of the
universe and listening to the reply and reading omens and signs in
the symbols you encounter through the day.
TREAT YOURSELF LIKE A GODDESS! Connect with your intuition and
deepen your selfcare practice with The Sacred Self-Care Oracle.
This whimsically illustrated deck will help you create rituals to
nourish you on the deepest levels your soul is calling for,
inviting you to ask: What do I need to feel centered and balanced
today? How can I connect with my body's intuition? If I only have a
short time for me this week, how should I spend it? Whether you
find meaning in the cards alone or consult the in-depth guidebook
for mantras, journal prompts, and additional guidance, this
powerful healing tool for the modern spiritual seeker gives you
permission to put self-care at the top of your to-do list.
