New Books of Interest and More...

The Everything Series has come out with yet more fun and amazing books! here are the three new ones we have in store.

The Everything KIDS Fairies Puzzle and Activity Book

By Charles & Calla Timmerman ISBN: 1598693948 $8.99
This wonderful book hosts games and puzzles to inspire and challenge children between the ages of 8 and 10. Although I know many adults who will also find it fun, especially if they have children in elementary school.

The Everything Spells & Charms Book 2nd edition
By Skye Alexander ISBN: 1598693867 $16.50
One of the best books I have seen on spellcrafting! The first chapter provides concise information about elements, directions, and Sabbats. The subsequent early chapters cover symbols, general methods, and things to keep in mind as you strive for successful magic. There is even a chapter on great magical practitioners! The latter part of the book explores spellcrafting for different purposes in your life.

The Everything Palmistry Book
By Katine Z. Jones ISBN: 1580628761 $16.50
Everything you need to know to start learning and practicing palmistry! This book will explore shapes, lines, mounts and so much more! it is thorough. It is comprehensive. It is worth the buy!

The following are some other new things of interest that showed up like Yule gifts in our mail!

The Green Wiccan Year
By Silja ISBN: 9781906094973 $24.95
This is a beautiful spiral bound agenda book. It can be used for any year as it is not a year specific agenda. Each monthly divider has a pocket for notes, and an article or spell/ritual idea. There are kitchen witchery ideas, too, for the Green Wiccan! At the end of the agenda (which goes from December through to November), you will find a ritual section. There is a section for coven notes and place to keep record of your spells.

The Golden Tarot
By Liz Dean ISBN: 9781906094867 $18.95
This stunning deck was inspired by the Visconti-Sforza and Rider-Waite tarot decks. The artwork is lavish and full if imagery. This set comes with a 64-page illustrated companion book to assist you and compliment your study of the tarot. Below are some examples of the cards!



The Healing Power of Faery
By Edain McCoy ISBN: 1598698095 $16.50
Edain McCoy practices a corm of Celtic Wicca called Witta, on which she was written a couple informative books. This is her newest book on working with elementals and nature spirits for healing and soothing the home, body and soul.
**STAFF RECOMMENDED**


For those who walk a different path and who have been waiting a long while for a new book, here it is! Finally in print!

The Satanic Scriptures
By Peter H. Gilmore ISBN: 0976403595 $21.50
"The Satanis Scriptures hands down the wit, wisdom and diabolical perspectives of the Church of Satan's High Priest, Magus Peter H. Gilmore." It is a series of articles and diatribes on various current issues and ideas as he guides people along the Left Hand Path. Explore such topics as: Why is Satanism feared? What do Satanists think and do, really? The answers may surprise you!

Finally, remember that there are several calendars and agendas for the new year, including the Llewellyn's Magical Almanac. They are going fast and may not be available for much longer after January. Get them while you can!

For the holidays we have extended our business hours to give everyone a chance to get in for that special unique gift:

Next week, we will be open until 9pm on both Monday December 22nd and Tuesday the 23rd, but our hours will be shortened on Wednesday December 24th from 10am- 3pm (because we love celebrating with our families too!).

Regular hours will resume thereafter, with the exceptions of: December 31st when we will hold the hours of 10am to 3pm (New Year's Eve! Yay!), we will be closed on January first, and will re-open at 1pm on January 2nd.

Have a great holiday, whatever you celebrate!

Yule Baskets

Wiccan Sacred Circle (Avalon Centre) is collecting non-perishables for Yule Baskets. There are two boxes for collection here at the store and the MPRC. Please take some time to drop off some cans or whatnot. As a suggestion, leave grocery store food cards or buy pet food or cat litter. Everyone thinks to feed the people and forget the littler members of the family in food baskets. Try leaving a variety of foods for all ages. Baby food and kids' lunchbox snackables are also helpful.

The boxes will be empties Friday evening December 12th.

Thank on behalf of all the families who will benfit from your support.

The Yule Fair in Review

In my opinion, the fair was a good success for not just the store or even the MPRC, but for the Montreal Pagan community in general. Over the course of the weekend, people of diverse beliefs and backgrounds came together to share in a spirit of community that we don't see nearly often enough. We supported local pagan artisans. We attended lectures by people we'd never met and of traditions not our own. We gathered to simply be together. Many came for the Yule ritual as well.

I am proud that we could do this for our community, and look forward to doing it again and again.

We have already begun to discuss an early summer fair, happening sometime near the end of May, with more vendors and speakers...just don't ask us about it until the snow is off the ground, okay? ;)
