In this practical guide to working with the stones of the Goddess, Nicholas Pearson explores more than 100 gemstones and crystals strongly connected with the energies of the Divine Feminine, including old favorites like amazonite, amethyst, geodes, and carnelian (also known as the blood of Isis), alongside newer and more unusual stones such as sakura ishi, yeh ming zhu, and Lemurian seed crystals. He details each stone’s spiritual and healing properties, astrological and elemental correspondences, Goddess archetypes and lore, magickal uses, and the aspects of the Divine Feminine it embodies. Providing an overview of major Goddesses from around the world, he reveals how Goddess traditions and myths have incorporated stones throughout history. Guiding you through the basics of crystal work, including cleansing and programming, the author offers step-by-step instructions for Goddess-centered magickal rituals, guided meditations to connect with the Divine Feminine, and the use of crystals for spellcasting. He explains how to create crystal grids, including the Triple Goddess Grid and the Venus Grid; crystal elixirs, such as Aphrodite Elixir and Yemayá Essence; and crystal charm bags for purification, wealth, and a happy home. With the rebirth of the Goddess now happening after millennia of suppression, Pearson shows how, by working with gemstones and crystals, you can help restore the radiant light and limitless magick of the Divine Feminine and move humanity toward collective growth and healing. The stones of the Goddess are here to support us through practical means as well as serve as anchors for the return of the Goddess’s presence.

Book Description
An action-packed, fast-paced urban fantasy adventure with slow burn romance vibes for readers who love discovery of magic and fish out of water tropes by Urban Fantasy Author Thea Atkinson. In the seedy underbelly of the otherworld, nothing comes cheap. Not even if you steal it. The stink of brimstone still clings to Isabella's skin after her escape from Hell. Fortunately, she brought an enchanted stone back that can wrestle her out from beneath Scottie's thumb. She'll just have to barter with a few dangerous immortals. Her plan to shake down her ex takes her into an incubus's lair and deeper into the shadows. But what waits for her in the supernatural realm is dark. And it's deadly. Bartering for her freedom will take so much more than a stone that holds the secret to a deadly power. Because there's only commodity that has any real value in the Shadow Bazaar. And she can't live without it… If Isabella Hush has already swept you away into a magical world of supernatural mystery and suspense, slip back into her skin with Stone Goddess. The Isabella Hush series includes all these titles: Rune Thief Bone Hunter Stone Goddess Holiday Magic (novella) Soul Merchant Cursed Alchemist

Book Description
The White Goddess is perhaps the finest of Robert Graves's works on the psychological and mythological sources of poetry. In this tapestry of poetic and religious scholarship, Graves explores the stories behind the earliest of European deities—the White Goddess of Birth, Love, and Death—who was worshipped under countless titles. He also uncovers the obscure and mysterious power of "pure poetry" and its peculiar and mythic language.
