“Varieties of Melancholy : A Hopeful Guide to Our Sombre Moods” by The School of Life

Magick Matters

"This is a book that celebrates the most neglected but valuable emotion we can feel: melancholy.

This is followed by a presentation of the Elder runes, runology, and rune magic, all rooted in...>>
