    "She is warrior, queen, death omen, mother, murderer, lover, spy, conspirator, faery, shape-shifter, healer, and sometimes the living earth itself. A captivating contradiction: a demonic female who both haunts and heals; benevolent in one moment, ghastly the next, and kind the moment after that.”The Morrigan is one of Pagan Ireland’s most famous—and notorious—goddesses. Her name translated as “phantom queen” or “great queen,” the Morrigan is famous for being a goddess of war, witchcraft and death, protection and retribution. This book also explores her patronage of motherhood, healing, shapeshifting, and the land. Classified among the Sidhe (fairies), the Morrigan dates back at least to Ireland’s Iron Age, but she is as modern as she is ancient―enjoying a growing contemporary and global following.Author Courtney Weber provides a guide for the modern devotee of this complex, mysterious goddess that encompasses practical veneration with modern devotionals, entwined with traditional lore and Irish-Celtic history.

Elen of the Ways call you to your path . . . Artemis offers to guide your arrow . . . Cerridwyn urges you to trust in the unlimited potential of your life . . .Because the art is based on photographs of real women, many of the eyes are illuminated to glow with the mystical qualities of that goddess and to imply the eternal light shining from within.May the Great Goddess awaken the light within you too.A special note from Colette:My artist and I created this deck in a deeply respectful spirit, and the way we depict these goddesses is in no way intended to replace their traditional appearances. This is especially true when it comes to the goddesses who are a part of a living religion, such as the Hindu goddesses or the Indigenous goddesses--this multicultural oracle deck would not have been meaningful if these goddesses were left out. The choices in the depictions of the goddesses came from a commitment to the Great Goddess and how She expresses Herself in every woman, every person, and we wanted this deck to show each goddess as a symbolic archetype within a unified whole rather than the actual traditional goddess. We hope you love it!

    From their highest-reaching branches to the furthest depths of their underground roots, trees speak to us in a silent, magical language, emitting powerful energies that affect not just us, but the entire Universe. In her newest book, Tree Magic, best-selling author Lisa Chamberlain shows you how to work consciously with these energies to enhance and improve your life. Trees are perhaps the most diverse natural sources of magical ingredients. You can utilize leaves, bark, or branches in your spellwork, or take advantage of the magical properties of the nuts and fruits that trees provide. You might work with the resins or essences of particular trees, or utilize their energies in incense or essential oils. You can also accomplish some astounding manifestations simply by sitting at the base of a tree and attuning to its majestic presence. As you can see, the practice of tree magic has endless potential! This guide will help you find your own personal starting point. The Old Religion and the Trees of the New World Magic today is a highly diverse and eclectic practice, often borrowing from older pagan traditions while at the same time inventing new approaches. Understanding where our traditions come from can lead to fresh inspiration for new magical innovations. In this spirit, Lisa uncovers the importance of trees to the ritual and magical lives of two ancient Northern European cultures—the Germanic peoples and the Celts—that have long inspired modern Wiccan practices. She then outlines the roles trees play in Wiccan beliefs, and their contributions to tools of the Craft. Because so much of our understanding of tree magic has been handed down from European pagan traditions, modern sources on tree magic are often focused on species native to Europe, where these traditions originate. This guide takes a different approach, focusing on 13 magical trees native to North America, to help the Witches of “the New World” ground their practice of tree magic more firmly on home soil. You’ll learn about the history and lore of each tree, where it can be found in the U.S. and Canada, and (of course!) its energetic properties and magical uses. What’s more, the magical workings included in the guide are all focused on one or more of the featured trees (though appropriate substitutions are always welcome)! Indeed, Tree Magic has all you need to embark on a new leg of your magical journey, including: How trees were used in ritual and magic by our pagan ancestors The significance of trees to Wiccan cosmology and ritual practice Advice for forging (and deepening) personal magical connections with the trees that live near you Profiles of 13 common magical trees—their history and lore, energetic properties, and magical uses How to safely and respectfully harvest magical ingredients from living trees Ideas for making your own wand from a tree branch Spells, meditations, rituals, and more for working with the natural magic of trees A table of correspondences for easy reference By the end of this guide, you will have a greater understanding of the incredible, magical beings we call trees, and how to work with them to transform your life.

    Although it is believed that the rituals and practices were hidden from the Christian Church during the dark ages, in which the life of a Pagan would most certainly end in death, it was safe enough to surface in more modern times. This belief is what originally drew most to the religion and practices of Wicca. To become a Wiccan, one must be able to put themselves in the boots of those before them. To truly understand the laws, beliefs and traditions that come with the life of a Wiccan, you must have the knowledge of all of its origins. The most important thing in a Wiccan’s pursuit for a deeper connection and better understanding of Nature – and all its divine mystery – is the willingness to learn about the history behind that need. The Wiccan Religion is truly the only one of its kind. It is magical in its own way as it allows each of its followers the freedom to seek out the natural magic of the earth and the magic within themselves in their own way. Here is what you'll learn from this book: What wicca is: History, Origin, The Philosophy Secret Wiccan Rituals How to creat your altar Everything about Herbs How To have Successful Spellcasting and much much more!
