A Pride of Magical Books and Decks

6/15/2022

June is Pride Month.

Truly every day of every week of every month of every year, should have Pride focus. Every day should be a safe, loving, and magical experience for everyone in the LGBTQ community.

Always – but certainly this month – be sure to support your favorite queer authors and artists. Post reviews of their work on main retail sites like Amazon and Barnes & Noble…and of course purchase their amazing work!

Below is a small list of mystical books and divination decks that have been written for the LGBTQ community. Please comment with any other titles that should be on this list – I will add them to my list, and readers can enjoy the resources you share.

Be sure to check for these titles at your local metaphysical or indie book seller. Request them if not currently on their shelves. Request them at your local library. And of course you can find them on all major retailer sites like Amazon and Barnes & Noble.

Astrology for Witches
by Michael Herkes

Author Michael Herkes has done it again!

A book that is clear, informative, thorough, yet easy for even the magical layman to understand, and wonderful as a reference for future practice.

'Astrology for Witches' is by far the clearest book on the subject, with ready to apply information and techniques at your very first read through the book.

I have already recommended this book to several friends and students and feel it should be a mandatory cornerstone of every magical practitioner's library.

Purchase your copy your local metaphysical or indie book store.. or on Amazon.

Witchcraft for Daily Self Care
by Michael Herkes

When the perfect thing arrives at the perfect time! ‘Witchcraft for Daily Self Care’ by Michael Herkes is exactly that!
An inviting book, that at first may seem like a light read but is truly a gem laden treasure of powerful information and inspiration.
Self care is easily the most undervalued yet most needed practice for everyone. We care for our loved ones – human and pets, we water and prune our plants and gardens, polish our cars, but ourselves we tend to ignore. Self care is always needed, but most especially right now, as we all slowly emerge in varying degrees from over a year of pandemic and lock down. Our physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual states and well being, are all in dire need of some soothing and rejuvenating.
‘Witchcraft for Daily Self Care’ provides an easily accessible overview of the empowering and healing resources all around us in our daily lives, and reminds us of the power we possess within, even when we feel a bit worse for wear. The author shares his own self care journey which makes all of his advice, relatable and like a personal gift.
The spells, and care rituals, meditations, and practices in this book are easy enough for someone new to witchcraft… or even new to self care.
This book is beautiful in every way and would be a perfect and caring gift for yourself or a loved one.

Modern Witch ~ Spells, Recipes, and Workings
by Devin Hunter

In an era where aesthetic often overshadows authentic content, it is a true treasure that combines both in equal measure.

With the ambiatic elegance of a coffee table book, Modern Witch begs to be seen, perused and poured over, enjoying the exquisite photography, while absorbing its magical content. The photographs, taken by author, Devin Hunter, bring every spell and recipe to life.

Many books tout themselves as ideal for both beginners as well as seasoned practitioners, but few can accommodate the full range of the spectrum; Modern Witch truly does, with clear instructions that even a novice can confidently follow, as well as insight and perspective, wisdom and workings that are on par with the practice of a witch of vast experience.

Devin Hunter’s previous three books – the Witch Power series – each added facets to both our understanding and application of magic and personal power, and now Modern Witch is truly the crowning jewel, facilitating practical application with an ease and grace that is nothing short of Divine!

Whether you are looking for your first spellbook, or want to add a new masterpiece to your magical library, ‘Modern Witch’ by Devin Hunter is the perfect choice.

You can procure an author signed copy directly from Devin himself via his website.

Available at your local metaphysical shops and/or indie bookseller (please request if not currently in stock), as well as from major retailers such as Barnes and Noble or Amazon.
