 Record and reflect on your tarot readings with The One Card Tarot Journal and create a wonderful ritual for your spiritual practice.

Looking for some answers? Let tarot be your guide.

The One Card Tarot Journal unlocks the power of the deck by opening up the practice with simplified yet insightful one cad pulls. By first explaining how to conduct a one card pull and including a reference for each card’s meaning, this journal then provides prompts for your own single card pull and gives you space to record, interpret, and reflect on your own readings.

With questions on everything from relationships and careers to personal goal setting and transformation, The One Card Tarot Journal allows you to explore every aspect of your life. And with space to come up with your own questions, this journal fuels self-discovery by the way of tarot.

• Features simple, quick prompts that focus on gratitude, letting go of stress, and setting daily intentions.
• A clean, yet effective page set up provides space to reflect on three daily questions: I will let go of, I am grateful for, and I will focus on.

This zine is a big YES to a juicy dose of much needed magical personal indulgence. Whether we're cooped up indoors or basking in the summer sun, this is the time to savor ourselves in whatever way feels most fruitful to us. Sensuality and pleasure are first and foremost individual pursuits. Water the flowers of your own garden, then share the radiant bounty of what's grown - if you want. Show up for yourself. Surprise yourself. Seduce yourself. This is the moment of radical fullness you've been waiting for. You are that witch, and we see how brightly you shine.

This zine includes spells, a playlist, ritual ideas, recipes, and so much more!

From the author of Floriography comes a gorgeously illustrated oracle deck and guidebook inspired by the magic of woodland flora and fauna. Drawing on mythology, folklore, and literature, each card in the Woodland Wardens deck features an animal-plant pairing accompanied by a distinct and thoughtful message: the hare and the oak; the finch and the peach; the hawk and the thistle. Each unique combination, brought to life in artist Jessica Roux’s detailed, historically evocative style, transports seekers to another time and place, offering insight, guidance, and an invitation to reflect on the natural world.

The Poison Path Herbal is our November book club pick! You can find more details about the book club here, or sign up to join us here. 

Part grimoire and part herbal formulary, this guide to the Poison Path of occult herbalism shares history, lore, and information regarding the use of poisonous, consciousness-altering, and magical plants. Author Coby Michael explains how, despite their poisonous nature, baneful herbs can become powerful plant allies, offering potent medicine, magical wisdom, and access to the spirit realm.

Detailing the spiritual, alchemical, astrological, and symbolic associations of each plant, the author explores their magical uses in spells and rituals. He focuses primarily on the nightshade family, or Solanaceae, such as mandrake, henbane, and thorn apple, but also explores plants from other families such as wolfsbane, hemlock, and hellebore. He also examines plants in the witch’s pharmacopoeia that are safer to work with and just as chemically active, such as wormwood, mugwort, and yarrow.

The author shares rituals suited to the individual nature and powers of each plant and explains how to attract and work with plant spirit familiars. He offers plant alchemy methods for crafting spagyric tinctures and magical techniques to facilitate working with these plants as allies and teachers. He shares magical recipes featuring the plants, including a modern witches’ flying ointment. He also explores safely cultivating baneful herbs in a poison garden.

“The book helps you meet loss on its own terms, not as a problem to be solved but as a sign of deep love.”—Megan Devine, author of It's OK That You're Not OK

All of us experience loss. Some of us have lost a spouse, a child, a parent, a beloved pet, a dear friend, or a neighbor. In the pandemic, we have lost hundreds of thousands of lives in the US and around the world. Many of us have lost our livelihoods. All of us have lost our familiar routines and textures of work, family, and community. And the losses are not over.
Opening to Grief is a companion to this tender time. With the demeanor and tone of a loving friend, the authors offer an invitation to grieve fully, to turn toward your emotions and experiences however they arise, and to follow your own path toward healing. The book explores the deep truth that grief and love are richly intertwined. Because we love, we grieve. And when we fully feel our sorrow, we open to loving ourselves and other beings more deeply.

In Secrets of Romani Fortune-Telling, Paulina Stevens and Jezmina Von Thiele share the knowledge and personal experiences of being raised to be fortune-tellers. They share divination methods, tools, and techniques that have been created, adapted, or popularized by the Roma, including card reading, palmistry, dream divination, and tea-leaf and coffee reading. They share exercises to strengthen your intuition and discover your natural gifts, and explain how divination helps with shadow work, blockages, and self-awareness.
 
“Readers will gain a solid grounding in Romani divination practices and Romani spirituality. While much of our culture remains closed to outsiders, Jezmina and Paulina continue their mission of building bridges between the Romani and other cultures and helping others appreciate our beautiful, diverse traditions. Laćhi buti, phenja! (Good work, sisters!)”
—Caren Gussoff Sumption, author of So Quick Bright Things Come to Confusion and Three Songs for Roxy

When it comes to sex, many of us have been sold on the idea that certain techniques and tools are surefire turn-ons. If those techniques don't work, and we don't connect with our partners or our own pleasure, then something is inherently wrong with us. But sexologist Jaiya has identified five erotic types that, like Gary Chapman's The 5 Love Languages, empower people with the understanding that we are each erotically gifted and that our differences are our strengths. Jaiya’s framework will help readers bridge the sexual incompatibility gap, become masters of their own sexual desire, and experience the deeper connection and sexual satisfaction that they crave.
