Delve into the mysteries of the Night -- from divination and astrology to ancient philosophy and self-exploration -- in The Night School, a magical course of study for modern witches, seekers, and mystics, from award-winning author Maia Toll.
Welcome
to the Night School, Firefly. Here you'll explore the farthest reaches
of the universe, and the deepest parts of yourself. You'll learn to cast
off the constraints of the day, and open your eyes, your heart, and
your mind to the enchanted mystery of the Night. You'll travel the world
in search of inspiring sites, timeless wisdom, and essential magic. And
you'll do so under the bewitching guidance of the Night Mistress, your
guide in the curriculum of all that lies beneath the starry sky.
For anyone interested in spirituality, folklore, mysticism, witchcraft, healing, and self-exploration, The Night School
is a highly creative journey into the magic of the night. Organized as
an enchanted course of study, with semesters and subjects for
exploration -- ranging from Midnight Foundations (Philosophy 101) to
Divining the Night (Divination 101) to Harnessing the Celestial Tides
(Energetic Engineering 101) -- this illuminating manual offers short
nightly lessons complete with reflections, exercises, homework, and even
extra credit to help readers connect with the power of the night and
explore the deeper mysteries of being human. In an era when our daytime
hours are increasingly uncertain and people are turning inward to
reevaluate what really matters, The Night School encourages
us to slow down and contemplate our dreams, relationship to the natural
world, and the ancient traditions of mystical thinking -- all by the
light of the moon.
