Synopsis

Art is inherently magickal, and you, as an artist, are also a magician who can ritualize your creative endeavors to make them stronger than ever. Astrea Taylor offers an impressive collection of spells, rituals, deities, and lore that will help you bring to life the story, painting, sculpture, or music you've been dreaming about.

This book is designed to guide you through the entire creative process. You'll draw inspiration from spirits and the four elements to complete your rough draft, and then use the principles of alchemy to refine your piece. Astrea also shares deep insights on releasing your art into the world, resting between projects, and persevering through hard times. From handling criticism to awakening the guiding spirit of art, this book shares numerous exercises and activities to get your creativity flowing and keep it going.

Includes a foreword by Michael Herkes, author of The Glam Witch.

I first heard the muses whisper to me when I was about 5 years old.
