But when your intuitive muscle is weak, it can be hard to recognize that little voice. How can you tell if it's intuition or fear? Read more

The Magick Of Food – Rituals, Offerings, & Why We Eat Together

Last updated on: January 2, 2020 at 1:45 pm By Gwion Raven

If I was able to articulate one human emotion associated with the act of eating and drinking, it would undoubtedly be joy. It is this quality that fills the pages that follow; Gwion has succeeded in imbuing the words of this book with the joy he gleans from food and drink.
