A FLAME TREE POCKET NOTEBOOK. Beautiful and luxurious the journals
combine high-quality production with magnificent art. Perfect as a
gift, and an essential personal choice for writers, notetakers,
travellers, students, poets and diarists. Features a wide range of
well-known and modern artists, with new artworks published
throughout the year. BEAUTIFULLY DESIGNED. The highly crafted
covers are printed on foil paper, embossed then foil stamped,
complemented by the luxury binding and rose red end-papers. The
covers are created by our artists and designers who spend many
hours transforming original artwork into gorgeous 3d masterpieces

ribbon markers to help keep track of more than just a to-do list;
robust ivory text paper, printed with lines; and when you need to
collect other notes or scraps of paper the magnetic side flap keeps
everything neat and tidy. THE ARTIST. Tove Jansson was a
Finnish-Swedish writer and artist who created the Moomin family and
their friends. She first started painting Moomintrolls in 1935 and
her last Moomin book was published in 1970; but her stories live on
and continue to be adapted and enjoyed by many generations. THE
FINAL WORD. As William Morris said, "Have nothing in your houses
that you do not know to be useful, or believe to be beautiful."

Yasmin Boland invites you to use the transformative energy of the Moon
to make 2026 a year of dramatic shifts that create space for positive
change.
In the ever-changing cosmic landscape, 2026 is a year of transformation
with a celestial mandate to chase your dreams. The Moonology Diary 2026
will support you on an astrological journey through a year unlike any
other. In 2026, the stars demand action and say, ‘Don’t just sit there,
do something!’
As multiple outer planets make momentous transitions from one sign to
the next, the planetary energies are set to shift dramatically. These
rare and significant changes, some occurring for the first time in
decades or even centuries, herald a powerful time to break free from
the past and old patterns. It’s a time to embrace fresh ways of being
because, by year’s end, your life could look radically different than
it did in January.
Each week you'll learn how to work with the cycles of the Moon to
create, plan, and predict changes in your life during this eventful
year. Dive in and discover how to harness the lunar energies to
manifest your dreams and step boldly into a new era of possibility.
You'll learn how:
- the Moon and her nine magical phases can be a source of light and
guidance
- attuning to the energies in each lunar cycle can help you set and
achieve your goals
- to use simple techniques to supercharge different aspects of your
life—from work and friendships to finances and romance
- co-creating your reality with the cosmos can invite magic and
even bliss into each week
This essential diary, which sells out every year, charts the key themes
of 2026 and includes plenty of space for you to plan your year, get in
tune with the Moon, and live a life full of possibility!
