Shadow Magic: Unlocking the Whole Witch Within -- Nikki Van De Car

<p><b>"A necessary addition to any collection on magic and witchcraft." -- <i>Publisher's Weekly</i> <p/> From the bestselling author of <i>Practical Magic </i>Nikki Van De Car comes <i>Shadow Magic</i>, an expansive, beautiful primer on cultivating your own innate power, magic, and strength through shadow work--the mystical art of engaging with your deepest internal self.</b> <p/> Human beings are incredibly complex. We are more than just our happiness or sunny dispositions, and we have much to offer others and ourselves even on our worst days. There is magic and energy and potential in these moments--in the shadow--and we cannot be the fullest expression of ourselves, at our most powerful, unless we embrace and embody all that we are. <p/><i>Shadow Magic</i> is here to assist you in uncovering, understanding, and celebrating your own shadow. Author Nikki Van De Car teaches us to work with the shadow, rather than trying to suppress or ignore it--allowing each of us to uncover the whole, integrated witch within. Through foundational lessons on psychologist Carl Jung's concept of the shadow; explorations of magical topics like the moon, dream magic, and symbology; and rituals and spells for connecting to your own deepest self, <i>Shadow Magic </i>invites all of us to harness the shadow's power to bring more magic into our lives. The spells and rituals in this book will help you bring awareness and healing to whatever you may be carrying that you would rather leave behind. As
