There are so many books out there sometimes it's hard to find the one that will fill
your needs. Here is a list of my favorites. The books I go back to time and time again.
HOUSE MAGIC: The Good Witch's Guide To Bringing Grace To Your Space
by Ariana
Feng Shui, witchcraft and astrology are already familiar to many readers, but this is the
first book to bring them all together. By using a little bit of each, people can activate
positive energy in their homes and consequently in their lives.
In a casual, chatty style, Ariana "demonstrates ... how to activate positive energy flow
into your home, and therefore, into your life" by using feng shui, candles, gemstones,
smudging, and rituals to create a harmonious environment.

Cottage Witchery - Natural Magick For Hearth And Home
The natural magick of the cottage Witch makes use of the bounty of the world around her
- a leaf from a tree, a flower grown in the yard, herbs from the pantry, a candle from the
cupboard. With her trademark down to earth humor and hand on approach, Ellen Dugan
shows you how to bring the beauty of nature and its magickal energies into your home.
This charming and creative guide book is ideal for cottage, hedge, or green Witches, as
well as anyone who just wants to add a little magickal sparkle to her home. From planting
begonias for protection to casting a maple leaf spell for happiness, Cottage Witchery is
filled with practical advice, personal stories, and hearth Witchery lore and magick.
Natural Witchery: Intuitive, Personal & Practical Magick.
With the goal of fostering spiritual development within a personal pagan practice, Ellen
Dugan emphasizes "natural magicks" and draws from innate intuitive talents. Her primer
for "green" witchcraft--i.e., witchcraft in tune with seasonal elements--is a gold mine of
concepts and resources for the novice to intermediate practitioner. The seasoned adept,
too, will find the handy correspondence lists and exercises immensely useful. Also included
are spells, rituals, and blank space for a personal grimoire to jot down ideas and insights.
Chock-full of relevant wisdom and lively humor, this is a valuable addition to any avid
pagan's personal reference library.
This friendly guidebook also includes a Book of Witchery with magickal correspondences
and a handy journal section for keeping track of your progress.
Garden Witchery: Magick from the Ground Up
How does your magickal garden grow?... With violets, rosemary, and yarrow to attract
faeries; an apple tree for love and health; and a circle of stones in some tucked-away
corner? Whether you live in a cottage in the woods, a home in the suburbs, or a city
apartment with a small balcony, a powerful and enchanted realm awaits you. Discover the
secret language and magickal properties of the trees and flowers, herbs and plants found
growing around you, and learn how to create your own witch's garden.
Written with down-to-earth humor by a Master Gardener who is also a practicing witch,
this creative and encouraging guide will inspire gardeners of all ages and experience
levels. It includes a journal section that makes it easy to keep track of your progress,
practical gardening advice, personal stories, and garden witchery lore and magick. Inside,
you'll get the dirt on:
A natural Witch has an appreciation of nature and an awareness of the magickal energies
present in all things. This kinship with the unseen world is at the heart of Witchcraft. It is
also the foundation of all magickal work.
You will enhance your spellcrafting, empower your witchery, and add richness and depth to
your everyday life by developing your intuition and psychic skills. Natural Witchery features
straightforward how-to's, first-hand stories, spells, rituals, fun quizzes, and creative
exercises to help you live a more magickal life:
Learn how to tune in to many different kinds of energy, such as the cycles of the moon
and the energy of the seasons, and use it to fuel your spellwork

Listening to the Oracle: The Ancient Art of Finding Guidance in the Signs and Symbols
All Around Us by Dianne Skafte. Oracles--wise messengers that help steer our lives--come
to us from sources such as dreams, divination, patterns in nature, chance words overheard
in a crowd, and inspired wisdom-speakers. Ancient peoples revered oracles as
communications from the sacred life maxtrix. But in modern times, we need a little help
attuning to the signs and wonders all around us.
Dr. Skafte rekindles our oracular knowing by exploring oracle traditions from many time
periods and applying their wisdom to our own lives. Topics include: Preparing to receive
oracles; The arts of divination, Sibyls; The oracle of Delphi; The shadow side of oracles;
and Communications from animals and nature. Discussions are based on extensive
historical research. The book contains over 400 indexed citations. Every chapter contains
useful exercises and practices.
The ancient oracles haven't stopped speaking, Skafte says. We've just forgotten how to
listen. But they warmly await our return.
Go on a journey with Omar W. Rosales in Elemental Shaman,One Man's Journey Into the
Heart of Humanity, Spirituality & Ecology. Oman follows his dreams on a spiritual quest
that takes him across four continents to shaman, priests, ghosts, legends, and mountain
deities. This inspiring true story chronicles one man's search for the truth behind the

Choosing Easy World: A Guide to Opting Out of Struggle and Strife and Living in the
Amazing Realm Where Everything is Easy by Julia Rogers Hamrick This simple guide
provides spirituality for the suburbanite!
A simple instruction manual to lay down your worries and go with the flow….
The way we experience life whether joyfully or sorrowfully is all about our perspective.
Instead of struggling against reality one only needs to accept it and take a positive view.
Most of us are left brain reliant and work habitually with the rational mind to experience
our environment. The left is the ego center and this limited usage not only limits ones
ability to escape the worry and strife drummed up by the ego, it makes it almost
impossible to speak with Spirit. When we relax and mindfully take a conscious breath we
can activate our right brain or our 'heart brain' and rise above the everyday troubles to
experience a must grander worry free existence.
In this book, Julia Rogers Hamrick lays out simple instructions for turning off the left brain
and activating the right brain allowing escape from a troubled world by lifting ones
thoughts to higher plain.
