The Magic in Your Genes by Cairelle Crow
£14.59 £15.99
A unique guide that combines traditional genealogy with magical practices to deepen your relationship with ancestors.
Have you been searching for a way to find deeper connection with your ancestors? Or would you like to learn how to reach your spirit guides? Author Cairelle Crow utilizes science, spells, and rituals to create a very profound book of ancestor working.
MAGIC IN YOUR GENES offers a route to becoming more in tune with your personal genealogical background so that you can begin to understand more about your ancestors.
The book offers a primer on the basics of DNA and genetic genealogy practices, so no prior knowledge is required to put the book to use. Magical tips and techniques are placed throughout to help the reader utilize both technical and magical resources as appropriate to the content in each chapter.
Written in a conversational style, its content is easily understandable by those with limited knowledge of genetics and genealogy, yet the book’s technical aspects on DNA and genetic testing are based on current standards as set forth by professional associations.
Included are:
· Real life stories and insights from a variety of pagans, wiccans, and witches who have done genetic genealogy testing and have used their personal results to explore their own magical identity and deepen their relationship with their ancestors
· The author’s own experiences with DNA testing and genealogy and how it is utilized by her in various forms of art, writing, and her own spiritual and magical practice
· Correspondences, recipes, rituals, and spells
· Recommended resources, a glossary of terms, and information regarding major genealogical groups and societies wrap up the content
It is geared to those with a known recent genealogical history (parents, grandparents) but is also appropriate for those who are adopted or who have other situations, such as a misattributed parentage event.

Historiola (hardback) by Carl Nordblom
£29.99
Hardback edition, limited to 500 copies.
In the beginning was the word, and for as long as there has been language, there has been power within the use of words. Incantations and spoken charms apply nuance, narrative, rhyme, and cadence to achieve magical effects, commonly divided into healing, hexing, and procuring. Modern academic scholarship, focusing on their historical relevance, refers to magical narrative charms as historiolae, which are explored here within numerous cultures of antiquity including Sumerian, Egyptian, Greek, and Indian through to Norse and Christian examples.
The author’s native Scandinavian tradition of troll formulae uses short narratives with a powerful protagonist (such as Jesus, saints, Mary, three maidens, mythical figures) performing the required action to heal, or hex. The narrative recounts a series of events, which the speaker through sympathetic magic manifests into action through the power of the protagonist and their actions. The story-telling aspect of the charms also provides a visual component to the charm, activating the power of imagination in both speaker and (if appropriate) recipient.
Through his exploration of the components of historiolae and associated ritual components, Carl Nordblom lucidly and concisely demonstrates the practice of narrative charms, equipping the reader with everything needed to incorporate or enhance their use in personal practice. And the word was with magic, and the word was magic.
