Pink Orchid Publishing ~ This is me!
Pink Orchid Publishing… is me!
I’ve been asked frequently about this company, which is listed on the copyright page of four of my books, along with Amazon. I’ve published four of my own books through Amazon and their KDP system so far, and I love it. I love being in control, I love editing the manuscript and deciding how I want it set up and how I want it to look, I love choosing the type of paper, styles, etc., and I love doing my own cover design. I went all out on my last book… full color, premium paper, heavily illustrated — a lot of my own photographs, as well as public domain images.
My other five books are published through traditional publishing companies, and I greatly (greatly!) appreciate the talented editors, artists, and publicists and all the work they have done. I’m proud of the connection I have with these amazing people and these companies, and I’m proud of the books that have come out of this joint effort.
As far as Pink Orchid Publishing goes, at this time, I am only publishing my own work. If I were younger and had more energy, I probably would take on other authors and projects, but not right now. I whimsically asked my daughter, “I think I created a publishing company?” and she said, “I do believe you did.”

Two Books That Will Be Great Companions!
Even before “The Gray Witch’s Grimoire” had been sent flying across the pond to my publisher in England (Moon Books/John Hunt Publishing), I was knee-deep in writing my next witchy book, “Natural Magick the Gray Witch Way”. The second book I published independently with Amazon through their KDP program under Pink Orchid Publishing — which is me. But for one brief insane moment, there was one of those slow-motion experiences when the little voice in my head said, “Wait a minute, you should combine these books.” It was absolute basic laziness which resulted in my reaction, which was “Nope, don’t think so, there’s so much material here.” So I didn’t.
One book went one way, on its destiny overseas, where it would eventually become a best seller. And the other book has found it’s spot at Amazon, happily ensconced among the witchy tomes of neo-pagans around the world.
I have always said, and I’m saying so again with emphasis, that these two books make great companion books and will get along quite well on the book shelf together. Whatever I didn’t include in one, can be found in the other. Below you’ll find an overview of the contents of each book and links to purchase. Both books are available in print and kindle at Amazon.

My New Book ~ embrace your spiritual side
I just ordered a couple more copies of my new book, The Little Handbook of Spiritual Awakening, for my pixies. I received my first copies a couple weeks ago, so I finally have a clear copy to photograph (not the author’s proof that has the ugly “not for resale” band around it)… So, if you ordered a copy, are you still waiting for it, or have you received it already, and if so Pictures Please!! I’d love to see where they end up. If you’ve read your new copy and have had time to get acquainted with it, jump on over to amazon with the following link and leave a word about the book. I will greatly appreciate it — thank you!! And, enjoy! If you have NOT ordered your copy — horrors!! — here’s a link so you can do that.

Hot Off the Press!
I just received my first order of books, The Little Handbook of Spiritual Awakening, from Amazon. If you have an order in, your books should be arriving soon, if they haven’t already.
[excerpt: Chapter 3, page 112] (on the chakras: opening your throat chakra)
To open this chakra
1. Wear turquois or light blue. Wear it as clothing, or a piece of jewelry. Plant blue flowers; paint your nails blue; buy a blue throw rug for your house, or a blue blanket for your bed. Take pictures of blue things.
2. Sing. If you can’t hold a tune, that’s okay. Sing when you’re alone in the shower and you’re all alone in the house. You (and Spirit) will be the only one to hear you, and you will be opening up and energizing your throat chakra
3. Write a letter to someone you haven’t seen or spoken to in a long time. Write a letter to someone that you are estranged from. Write a letter to someone you’ve always wanted to talk to but never had the courage. You don’t have to actually send this letter to anyone, unless you want to. But you will be opening up the channels of communication, and your throat chakra as well.
If you haven’t already ordered your copy of “Spiritual Awakening”, you can do so at this link:

Herbs: Hyssop ~ The Little Handbook of Spirituality
The chapter that I found the most fun to write was Chapter 4: Botanicals & Pagan Spiritualism. I love the use of herbs and their energies in the pagan path, and I’m strongly connected to them with my own practice. There is a nice segment on herbs, all formatted as the excerpt below, with a variety of uses for each herb as it pertains, some quite interesting and a bit unconventional.
If you have ordered your copy of this book, they should start to arrive to their destinations the middle of this month. I’m waiting, just like all of you, for my first clean copies, so far I have only the author’s proof, which is printed with a wide gray “not for resale” band across the cover.
If you haven’t ordered your copy yet,
please do so at Amazon withTHIS LINK.
And when you receive your book and have a chance to read it over, I would absolutely love it if you would leave a brief review or a few words on Amazon. Reviews make all the difference in the success of a book, and they often help someone decide if a particular book is what they’re looking for.
I know I can’t wait for my copies to arrive, and I can’t wait to get your feedback! I know you’ll love this book as much as I do.
Hyssop
Energy: projective
Planet: Jupiter
Element: fire
Magical uses: purification, protection
Aside from sage, hyssop is the most popular herb for purification, used widely in protective recipes for oils and powders, as well as burned for its cleansing purifying smoke.
If you’re feeling a bit tarnished spiritually, and you’re not sure from where or whom this energy is coming, you can fix it. Add a little hyssop to your bath water for a cleansing soak. You can add some dried and ground hyssop to your favorite moisturizing lotion or body oils and apply it sparingly, touching your forehead and heart to clear the energy about you.

“This book is written to help you explore and experiment and discover a spirituality that you might not even be aware of. This book is here to help you embrace your inner pagan, to reconnect with your ancient roots and an earthy spirituality based in nature and magic and inspiration.”
A Place to Record Your Progress & Inspirations ~ The Little Handbook of Spiritual Awakening
This little handbook and journal is special because I wanted you to be able to make this book your own, to add your private thoughts, inspiration that strikes out-of-the-blue, and positive affirmations. I wanted this book to be a companion to you as your spiritual explorations and awakenings unfold. There are ample pages of lined paper for you to write on, a beautiful watercolor wash that’s inspiring on its own, just waiting for you to put pen in hand.
I’m so proud of this beautiful book, and I know that my own personal copy will become a keepsake journal mirroring my own spiritual journey.
Please be sure to order your copy now, and if the spirit moves you, leave a review or a few words at Amazon. Thank you so much for supporting my books over the years and traveling this marvelous mystic path with me.
Blessings,
Amythyst Raine

The Little Handbook of Spiritual Awakening ~ What Chapter was the most difficult to write?
I would have to say that the most challenging chapter to write was Chapter 3, Preparing for Your New Spiritual Life.
The topics touched upon in this chapter include:
- What do you need to let go of?
- What do you need to draw to you?
- Paving the way.
In the Exercises, Activities, & Exploration section, the first exercise called “Getting Rid of Baggage” was an almost cathartic experience to think and write about, because realistically every single one of us has some sort of baggage. If you’ve lived at all, you’ve got baggage, it just goes with the human experience, it’s how we learn.
I open the exercise with this paragraph:
“As you experience your personal spiritual awakening, your soul may feel lighter, the world brighter. But that doesn’t mean that you will experience an instantaneous clearing of baggage you’ve accumulated over time. You’ll find that clearing emotional, past relationship, and physical baggage is something that you have to consciously choose to do…”
There then is included three brief lists with suggestions for clearing that baggage, because this really needs to be resolved and/or released so we can successfully progress on our spiritual journey and exploration.
Be sure to order your copy of The Little Handbook of Spiritual Awakening @ Amazon, and if the spirit moves you, I would love if you would leave a review or a few brief words about this book at Amazon.
Thank you all for the support you’ve shown this book, kicking it off with a burst of enthusiasm that charted it at #5. Please continue your support by leaving a review; passing this link on to someone else who would enjoy this book; and sharing links and posts with your friends, or on social media.
Bright Blessings,
Amythyst
The Little Handbook of Spiritual Awakening… What’s waiting for you inside?
Chapter 1:
[an excerpt]
From Chapter One Exercises, activities, and explorations
3. Reconnecting with animals and trees
“Do you love trees? Do you feel an affinity for, or a special connection with, trees? Do you have a favorite kind of tree? Do you have a tree from your childhood experiences that has stuck with you, maybe a particular beloved tree that you think about even now, after all these years? Do you feel uneasy in a forest, as though you’re being watched? When the wind blows through trees, do you hear it as voices with a message, or at least feel this energy?”
