The Altar Within is our July book club pick! You can find more details about the book club here, or sign up to join us here. 

The Altar Within: A Radical Devotional to Liberate the Divine Self is a work of spiritual revolution for all peoples, offering them practices and rituals in the arts of self-worship, self-discovery, and self-activism. The Altar Within is like no other approach to Spirituality, breaking through the vicious cycles of harmful and toxic spiritual practices and beliefs. Diaz speaks for those victimized and enslaved by colonization and offers a new take on personal development based in the resounding plea of our ancestors to live our Divined lives, the ones they could not have for themselves.

Pushing back on #lightandlove and #goodvibesonly, Diaz dismantles the wellness industry, releasing readers from the practice of spiritual bypassing into a far more powerful experience of self, healing, hope, and Spirit. This book is for anyone, including those who can't afford to buy all the tools, pay for the expensive memberships, people who have real-life issues, illnesses, and hardships. Through The Altar Within, Diaz brings the Magic to real life, acknowledging our humanness by connecting with our Spirit. 

The Altar Within will help readers create success in every area of their lives—from wealth, health, relationships, and personal development, to the nourishment of their relationship with the Divine self. As Diaz explains, when we can finally decolonize our spiritual beliefs, Divinity can be a super force in our lives, making us whole, stronger, wiser, and setting us on a path of transcendent activism. #magicalaf

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.

Pleasure Activism is our December book club pick! You can find more details about the book club here, or sign up to join us here. 

How do we make social justice the most pleasurable human experience? How can we awaken within ourselves desires that make it impossible to settle for anything less than a fulfilling life? Author and editor adrienne maree brown finds the answer in something she calls “pleasure activism,” a politics of healing and happiness that explodes the dour myth that changing the world is just another form of work.

Drawing on the black feminist tradition, she challenges us to rethink the ground rules of activism. Her mindset-altering essays are interwoven with conversations and insights from other feminist thinkers, including Audre Lorde, Joan Morgan, Cara Page, Sonya Renee Taylor, and Alexis Pauline Gumbs. Together they cover a wide array of subjects—from sex work to climate change, from race and gender to sex and drugs—building new narratives about how politics can feel good and how what feels good always has a complex politics of its own.

Building on the success of her popular Emergent Strategy, brown launches a new series of the same name with this volume, bringing readers books that explore experimental, expansive, and innovative ways to meet the challenges that face our world today. Books that find the opportunity in every crisis!

Introduction to Intuition & Clairvoyance is a 7-day, intensive introspective course designed to help you learn to listen to your inner guides and become aware of indicators from the universe. This introductory course is a sub-section of the longer form Monthly Manifestation Manual.

Life is always giving us guidance. We can learn to listen to and look for the cues shared with us. There is no answer we don’t already have within. Accessing your knowledge of non-physical reality takes practice and an open mind. We must be willing to hear new ideas and see new pathways.

The exercises in this zine help you hone your psychic abilities by encouraging you to listen to the source within you and recognize signs in the world around you.

What's Your Solution, How May I Serve? and Ask the Universe Anything train you to hear the answers presented to you when you ask a question of non-physical. The answers you’re looking for can come in a voice in your head, or a vision in your mind’s eye. Non-dominant Hand breaks you free from the constraints of logic. Your Own Medicine doses you with the realization that your remedies already exist. Universal Order Form and Scavenger Hunt give you tools for recognizing messages in your physical world.

Introduction to Magick is a 7-day, intensive course designed to help you feel more in control of your reality by providing tools to cultivate personal power and connection with the nonphysical.

The word magick was put into use by Aleister Crowley, who wanted to differentiate between stage magic and spiritual/metaphysical magick. This workbook explores what magick is and how to use it.

Magick is the cultivating of personal power–the remembering of our inherent divinity. We all have the ability to create the reality of our dreams, and using magick is a fun method for working with universal laws to create intended outcomes.

Sometimes, magick is just listening for answers from the nonphysical. The "Talking Board" exercise is perfect for accessing the wisdom already inside of you.

Spellcasting is another aspect of magick. When you focus your attention on what you want using rituals, crystals, potions, and altars, you create a powerful signal that reflects back to you in the form of manifestations. "The Cauldron," "Ritual Altar," "Talisman," "Vision Board" and "Sigil Magick" all work with your focused intention. They help you project what you want to receive back.

But don’t you just wish you had a "Magick Wand" to grant your every wish? Then the first exercise in this book is for you—using your problems to harness energy, transmute what is not wanted into exactly what is wanted with the flick of your wrist.

Beyond Gratitude is about becoming aware of your emotions and the role they play in the physical expression of your life. First, you impress your subconscious with feelings, and then life turns those emotional impressions into physical expressions. We used to say that thoughts create your reality, but really it’s your emotions that do the creating. The thoughts can bring about emotions, but it’s the emotions that actually create.

First, we will help you become aware of how you’re feeling and welcome ALL of those emotions. This workbook isn’t about suppressing emotions or pretending they don’t exist. It is about bringing awareness to them, noticing them, and boldly inviting all of them. Greet them with enthusiasm, no matter what they are, because even if you prefer not to feel this way, this emotion is causing you to ask for its opposite.

As we progress through the exercises, not only will you become aware of your emotions, you learn how to practice the feelings you want to feel. Just like anything you want to get better at, feeling how you want to feel takes practice. It requires diligence,trust and gratitude. The exercises in this zine will give you the tools to deepen those skills while also guiding you up the emotional scale.
