SPIRIT: A Compendium of Esoteric Poetry
SPIRIT: A Compendium of Esoteric Poetry
118 page paperback book
Spirit embodies the aether / the quintessence. It is the ethereal space & what dwells within it; divine beings, spirits & the Fae, even the supra natural. Humans attempt to access Spirit through various mediums & divinatory practices: clairvoyance & psychic awareness, lucid dreaming & astral projection, tarot & scrying (to name a few). Some believe it can be accessed through prayer or after death, when our souls leave our body to join the great expanse. It is engrained in all cultures, in various ways throughout the world; through magic & science, myth & fable. Spirit is an ideal brought forth through the human experience & imagination to explain seemingly intangible things, where we confound our beliefs & faith in the otherworldly. Spirit has moved the pious, it inspires artists & dreamers, & brings magic to the terrestrial realm.
This anthology includes poetry that explores Spirit in its many forms from over 40 different authors from all over the world.
“I have heard it said
We are stardust
My particles are timeless–”
-Keri Withington from “In/finite”
SPIRIT Ritual Candle
dressed soy wax candle by Marvel + Moon, inspired by the theme of Spirit
Like stepping into a temple, this candle embodies the aroma of burning incense, citrus offerings, & wooden pews. The smoke is a tether to the cosmos, connecting us to the spiritual plain & the poetry of this anthology.
“she smells like a church
of smoke and shadows
incense and dust
it gets in your clothes
saturates and lingers
a taste like copper
exchanged in the space between breaths
ripe and full
it should be the scent of secrets
of shame
it should be choking
that overwhelming all enveloping presence
but cradled in her vapor
it is the scent of sanctuary”
-Melody Alice “Aromatica”
Scent Notes: Cedarwood. Orange. Clove. Patchouli. Nag Champa.
Adorned with Myrrh Resin & Purple Statice
Candle comes in a 3oz or 8oz size tin.
