Robyn's top picks from the new books and products:

NEW Chakra Mandala Series' Chakra Meditation Beeswax Candles
Hand-rolled beeswax candles, 7 inches tall, anointed with essentials oils, psychically charged and rolled with wild-crafted herbs. Ideal to help one's focus on their chakras. Instructions for meditations are included with each of these candles, too! Buy them individually as you work through your chakras, or follow the link above for the collection of all 7.

Encyclopedia of Spirits, by Judika Illes
Okay, I admit it: I am a fan of Illes' work. Her Element Encyclopedia of 5000 Spells is an absolute gem, alongside Pure Magic: A complete course in spellcasting, Emergency Magic, and Magic When You Need It. This new book is a guide to the magic of fairies, genies, ghosts, demons, as well as gods and goddesses from many cultures. It is clearly very well researched and details how to communicate, recognize and appease spirits according to various customs. It also goes into detail about historical events associated with specific spirits, too.

Sacred Path of Reiki: Healing as a spiritual Discipline, by Katalin Koda
Naturally, given my interest in Reiki, I was very curious about this new book. I am very critical of books on this subject, as I feel that many of them do not give the study of this healing path the respect and dignity it deserves in the teaching. This book succeeds magnificently. I am still in the midst of reading it, but I am very impressed so far, and would go so far as to recommend it to my own Reiki students who are looking to expand their own knowledge. Koda combines her technique of healing with Chakra healing as well.


Please note - if any of the links to these books don't work yet, try again in a few days! We're catching up on adding all the new titles to our database!
