Around Town with The Spiritual Feminist ~ Photo Blog!

Posted on April 22, 2015 by Amythyst Raine

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!

The Official Release Date for The Spiritual Feminist
is April 24th!!

Hooza!!!

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.

Enjoy the photos– and BUY THE BOOK (or the Kindle edition)

Women…you will be touched, you will be inspired, you will be re-empowered, you will find healing and a sense of spirituality like nothing you’ve ever experienced– Believe Me!

Blessings to you all,

Amythyst

Book Launch Party!! ~ Hooza!

Posted on April 12, 2015 by Amythyst Raine

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!

Happy Sunday, everyone!!

The Goddess is Snake Woman, the energy and magick are all about unity and communication, whether women gather for rituals, discussions, or private conversations. I’m joined this week by 2 of my daughters for an UNEDITED round-table discussion. It’s lively, off-the-cuff, and totally unpredictable! Also joining me this week are two black cats: Dolly & Salem.

This week the goddess is Airmed. The topics are herbs and green witchcraft. Our project– we’re going to create a Witch’s Bottle for Love Magick. You’ll also find a section at this video on precautions for love magick, encouraging common sense, as well as the use of mundane efforts to keep your life running smoothly, and to keep yourself safe. The National Domestic Abuse Hotline number will be found at the end of this video.

The goddess is Cybele. The topics include sexual orientation, transsexuals, transgender individuals, acceptance, and tolerance. We talk about learning to accept ourselves and celebrate our unique individuality. We also talk about how society has to move forward and improve how it accepts– and treats– people who live their lives “outside the box”.

Ms. Jenner…this one’s for you.

The Goddess is Aphrodite, the topic is birthdays and how we celebrate these milestones in connection with the Goddess and all the unique stages in a woman’s life. The discussion is about– Beauty. What’s beautiful, what’s not…How has our society and culture influenced our idea of physical beauty, our idea of youth and aging…How can we relearn to recognize and appreciate the inner beauty we all possess? How can we redefine what’s beautiful?

New Photos: Broken Hearts Collection (cover artist for “The Spiritual Feminist”)

Posted on January 30, 2015 by Amythyst Raine

This is the Nebraska artist whose work is featured on the cover of my next book, “The Spiritual Feminist”!

Most people have no idea how much work it takes to get to this point– the creation is one aspect of it, and then you have the presentation, and the publicity behind it to get your work out there. Included in this collection is the Apple Heart Sculpture featured on the cover of “The Spiritual Feminist”.

Follow THIS LINK <– be sure you follow *This* link, because the one you’ll find below isn’t working.

Anne Turrell

I spend literally ALL DAY taking new photos of the Broken Heart sculptures, getting them cropped and put together in ID and uploaded onto this lovely little blog right here https://anneturrell.wordpress.com/broken-hearts/ so please be a peach and let me know how things look, make the last 6 hours of my day worth while 🙂

Posted on January 30, 2015 by Amythyst Raine

Topics include: Astarte; Tarot/Knight of cups; finding the warrior goddess in you; our “knight-in-shining-armor”– chasing the fairy tale; the duality of woman’s nature.

Women are incredible! To traverse life we have to take on so many different personas and faces. But we do it, and we do it So Well! Discovering and honoring the warrior goddess within yourself does not mean that you have to sacrifice the soft, beautiful, uniquely feminine side of your nature– both energies are in your power and control.
