The Blooming Year

Nikki Van De Car is the author of over a dozen books, including the bestselling Practical Magic and The Invisible Wild, her first YA novel. She is an indigenous creator, focusing on exploring the ways in which story (mo‘olelo) informs how we understand the world and ourselves. She is a woman in search of magic, in the crunch of leaves and the scratch of a pencil, the brush of lips on a temple and the sound of voices raised in song.

Magia del Bosque, La

Desde tiempos inmemorables las personas hemos estado conectadas a la naturaleza en un plano más allá del físico. Los árboles y plantas nos han dado cobijo y aportado su sabiduría siempre que nos hemos abierto a ellos. Pero ¿cómo se puede establecer una conexión íntima con el bosque? Van De Car nos revela el lenguaje olvidado de esta relación milenaria, donde cada respiración es un intercambio sagrado: nosotros exhalamos lo que ellos necesitan, mientras nos regalan el oxígeno que nos mantiene vivos. Una danza perfecta que trasciende lo tangible para adentrarse en lo mágico.La magia del bosque nos guiará a la hora de encontrar nuestra propia arboleda sagrada (incluso en plena ciudad), a sincronizarnos con los ciclos del rey Roble y el rey Acebo que dividen el año, y a participar en rituales que celebran las festividades paganas vinculadas a los equinoccios. Cada página revela propiedades mágicas de árboles y arbustos, junto con hechizos que pueden resultar útiles en nuestro día a día. Las preciosas ilustraciones a color que acompañan el texto no solo embellecen la obra, sino que nos transportan al corazón mismo del bosque. Este recetario mágico no es solo un libro; es una invitación a despertar nuestra intuición natural, reconectar, ir más despacio y redescubrir una sabiduría tan antigua como los propios árboles.

Faeries

Discover the history and mythology of faeries—across time and cultures—as well as their significance in art, poetry, and more, in this lushly illustrated volume, featuring more than 100 reproductions of artistic masterpieces. "A field guide to the fantastic." — Kirkus Faeries have captured the collective imagination throughout time and across cultures. Unexplained occurrences, natural phenomena, and so much more have been attributed to these beautiful, mysterious, and often mischievous creatures. Sometimes these fairies can be helpful and kindly, like the brownies of Britain, the menehune of Hawai‘i, and the domovoi of Russia. But just as often, they are seen as a threat, as we characterize a natural phenomenon into an often capricious and frequently frightening creature. The wind becomes a sylph, trees house dryads, and thunderbirds call down storms. They are to be feared and respected, appeased and dreaded in turn. In this striking book, author Nikki Van De Car introduces readers to faeries of all stripes—helpful and unhelpful, related to the four elements, animal and shape-shifting—as well as some of the most famous figures from history, lore, and literature (from Puck to Ariel). Arranged through wonderous paintings and illustrations by legendary artists including Ruben, Turner, Rodin, Blake, and Millais, this guide features the beautiful evidence of fairies’ influence on our world. Written folklore from Shakespeare and oral storytelling add context to more than 50 creatures accompanied with tips on finding, summoning, and gaining protection from sparklingly clever fairies.

The Wheel of the Year

"Celebrate the seasons and magical holidays-from Samhain to Beltane, Litha to Yule-alongside the lunar cycles of each month, in this beautifully illustrated guide to the wheel of the year, from bestselling author of Practical Magic Nikki Van De Car. The Wheel of the Year: A Guide to Sabbats, Lunar Cycles, and the Stars Above is a handbook that guides readers through the process of finding magic throughout a full year, allowing them to fully embody the practice of living a magical life. Drawing from ancient traditions and modern insights, this almanac invites mystical practitioners of any level to embrace the cycles of nature and the celestial dance of the stars. The beginning of each month includes an overall theme of that lunar cycle, derived from various cultures and indigenous traditions of North America. And every week, readers will find guidance on where to turn their attentions, as well as a suggested spell. Each spell is crafted to harmonize with the astrological energies of the week, deepening the magical practice. The weekly prompts throughout The Wheel of the Year are punctuated by a deeper look into the magical sabbats, including Samhain, Yule, Imbolc, Ostara, Beltane, Litha, Lammas, and Mabon, with each marking a significant spoke on the ever-turning wheel of the year. Each sabbat represents a moment of transformation and reflection, allowing us to attune ourselves to the natural world, honor the changing seasons, and align ourselves with the magic that surrounds us. By embracing these ancient celebrations, we tap into the collective wisdom of our ancestors. The rituals, meditations, spells, and insights are designed to empower, awaken the intuition, and encourage a deeper connection to the natural world and the magic that goes along with that. Stunning, full-color illustrations throughout provide further inspiration for crafting a magical life deeply rooted in the rhythms of the sky"--
