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 book The Spiritual Feminist is ranked #170 in the Goddess category at Amazon right now… Not too shabby! Woot!

I stumbled upon this information by accident today when I was updating my FB pages. The numbers at Amazon are in a constant state of flux and change, so I don’t really keep track of this information intentionally, but I might pay closer attention now. This book has its own Facebook page (as all of my books do): https://www.facebook.com/thespiritualfeminist?ref=hl
“So many people throughout my life have told me who I am, what I must do, what I can’t do, what I have to complete, and what I will never be able to accomplish, and then I met the Goddess.” (From The Spiritual Feminist) …The Spiritual Feminist empowers today’s modern woman through the Goddess, connecting her to ancient matriarchal divinity and spiritual practices which invoke this energy.

Crafting Your Magic:
Free yourself of those things that bind you, bind those things you need freedom from. Cast spells for release, relief, and emancipation; but make sure that you are not unintentionally restricting someone else’s freedoms with your magic, your expectations, or your emotions– such as jealousy. Remember, your thoughts are pure energy and can set magical vibrations into motion.
Opposite energies are flying high during the Snow Moon. Use the vibrations generated from this energy to your advantage– remember that “opposites attract”. Protection magic cast during this time is especially effective and potent.

Thank you to Vivienne Moss for a wonderful review!
“There is much wisdom and enchantment to be found in The Spiritual Feminist. The amount of information revealed will be welcomed by anyone wanting to travel along the Goddess Path. Amythyst Raine-Hatayama has poured her heart and soul into this charming book and I hope to read more from this wisdom-filled author. I sense this will make a remarkable companion book to Naming the Goddess and many other volumes on Goddess Spirituality…”

My daughter picked me up this morning for a round of shopping and lunch– and I took The Book with us (The Spiritual Feminist). This was a Hoot!! Following are photos of our jaunt, the places we went, and the people we saw…Welcome to Fremont, Nebraska (USA)!
First stop ~ THE BLUE BOTTLE ~ 529 N Main St #5 ~ Ask for Ginger!
Besides my favorite cappuccinos, what do you think you’ll find in The Blue Bottle?…Blue bottles– of course!
HARVEST HEALTH ~ 419 N Main St
Besides lots of Healthy Stuff, we found crystals and incense, and quite a few surprisingly Cool and New-Agey items. Yay!
SECOND LOOK ~516 N Main St ~ very cool consignment shopped filled with all sorts of treasures and good deals!
On the Lower Level of Second Look with the Proprietor!
“Andy” has been selling hotdogs from this stand AT THE CORNER OF 6th & MAIN for 30+ years!!
This building is actually For Sale and is my Dream Location for a Tea & Tarot shop ~ it’s an ivy covered cottage of a building, like something right out of a magickal movie!!…Where’s my Financial Backers?
Fremont Police Station
To the Men & Women In Blue!…Support your local Law Enforcement. I know, there’s been lots of bad press lately, and there are a few bad apples in ANY occupation. But the majority of Law Enforcement officials work hard and risk their lives To Keep Us Safe! (Hey, MOM! This ones for you ~ My Mother is a Retired Police Officer)
This sign is Right Outside MICHAEL’S JEWELRY ~ 540 N Main St ~ omg, if this were only true!! 🙂
PRECIOUS TREASURES CO-OP SHOP ~ 405 N Main St ~ Make sure you’ve got plenty of time to browse in here at your leisure, it’s a treasure trove all right!
Okay– ‘nough running around. Everyone was getting hungry and foot weary (yes, that’s a real thing). We finished off our outing– where? At McDonald’s…of course!

Thank you to my daughter, Laura Thome, for the photography!
This is such a monumental event in a writer’s life, the Release of a Book…it is akin to giving birth, and there’s almost as much chaos and hoopla leading up to it.
Thank you to Moon Books, John Hunt Publishing. And thank you to my awesome publicist Nimue Brown.
I posted a while ago on Facebook about the Book Launch Party tonight for The Spiritual Feminist. I’m looking forward this evening to fun with family and friends– some picture taking for my publicist!– and good food and drink. Thank you to my daughter, Anne, who had a special cake made for the evening– it’s designed after the Book of Shadows in the movie Practical Magic (and I’ll bet this is a first for the ladies here at Hy-Vee’s Bakery in Fremont NE!)
Thank you to John Hunt Publishing, and Moon Books, and my awesome publicist Nimue Brown!
