Welcome to the lives of Pamela Colman Smith (‘Pixie’) and Madge Gill. Two very different women from contrasting backgrounds who were born during the reign of Queen Victoria. Both are remembered now for the interesting and unique individuals they were. Celebrated and finding fame posthumously, Colman Smith is known principally for her illustrations of the Rider-Waite Tarot deck and Gill for her art, spiritual beliefs and second-sight. What binds them together, aside from their being artists and unconventional for their time, is how their lives were touched by the areas of astrology, magic, psychic abilities and spiritualism. This book looks at their lives and uses an astrological narrative to help better understand what drove them and how they managed their challenges and successes. Illustrated with photographs and images.
A magical trip around the zodiac with some perceptive and accessible astro-profiles of Pagan and Wiccan celebrities. An insightful read that goes beyond Sun signs with new birth charts coupled with biographical information plus many rarely seen photos. The era in which they lived did not have the same freedoms which many practitioners have today. These people blazed a trail for everyone.
Aleister Crowley, Frieda, Lady Harris and Betty May were no strangers to bohemian life; they embraced escapism, freedom and remained true to their indomitable spirits rebelling against the backdrop into which they were born. Through the art of natal astrology, we can see what their motivations were including their potential strengths and challenges. New research; some rarely seen photographs and some new biographical information, coupled with an astrological narrative lay at the heart of this book. Artists and astrologers; bohemians, ceremonial magicians and Thelemites, occultists, philosophers, Tarot historians and writers... welcome to Crowley, Harris and May.
