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.
