The Witches Almanac
The Complete Guide to Lunar Harmony
This Years Issue

The 2008-2009 Witches’ Almanac presents insight into the time-honored tradition of prophecy. To aid our quest for future possibilities, we offer accounts of the arcane roots of the tarot, visions in crystal balls, messages from tea leaves, Yoruba divination with cowrie shells, hidden tidings in the pendulum, and feature practitioners Rasputin and Mme. Blavatsky. We delve into Enoch, join the Chinese goddess of Western Paradise, and locate Mount Meru, Jeweled Heart of the Universe. You will enjoy a variety of intriguing articles, thanks to the expanded format, and our traditional outstanding graphics. Dikki-Jo Mullen contributes her annual astrological Presage and Tom C. Lang takes us through the year’s regional weather.
