In nineteenth century Norland, magic is forbidden, punishable by death. But it’s coming for Clara… Clara was born to the nobility at a time when rank and power are often more valuable than the bonds of family. Her parents have plans for her, none that she wants, all involving her arranged marriage to a suitor selected for her, without her input. From her birth, her entire life has been planned out for her, from lessons with her governess in academics—only what a future wife in society needs to know, of course—to etiquette and needlepoint. Every step of her path is meant to end with her walking down an aisle and then popping out heirs, to eventually begin the cycle anew. Her true feelings shared only with one of her sisters, Clara cringes at the thought of her destiny, doing all she can to accept the fate her parents have chosen for her. Only then, for the first time in her life, something unexpected happens. Clara falls gravely ill, and none of the usual methods, including leeching, can save her. With their daughter on the brink of death, when her future alliance is already settled, her desperate father finally calls on a mysterious man whose expertise is in the banned arts. It’s a dangerous move, one that threatens all that her parents have built. Now, an illegitimate wizard is Clara’s only hope of survival. And under his secret care, an unforeseen side effect develops. Magic awakens in Clara, gifting her with a second chance. Her entire life, she has resisted the lure of magic, doing what has been expected of her. Nothing has prepared her to deny the temptation of the only man willing to save her … from herself. * Magic Awakens is the first book in the Witching World, a complete series of six full-length novels and one prequel novella.

Awaken the Magic Within helps business leaders listen to that voice inside, showing them that it’s brilliant and it matters, in both work and personal situations. It is a simple read; yet, it has dramatic impact on a business’s bottom line, as well as an employee’s value to the company. A business must make money or it isn’t a business—it is a hobby. The old way of making a profit in business no longer serves the company, the shareholder, or the employee. In Awaken the Magic Within, motivational transformation specialist Joe Swinger addresses a transformative leadership style called Self-Mastery Leadership, the application of which produces rewarding results for business leaders in their multiple work situations with employees, within C-level suites, and in their families and love relationships. Whether someone longs to exchange the label “employee” for “entrepreneur,” be more authentic in their personal and professional relationships, or upgrade their entire life on a grand scale, it all begins with self-mastery. Joe Swinger allows business leaders and entrepreneurs alike to give themselves permission to live the gift they truly are, enter their own journey, and become more authentic as they Awaken the Magic Within.

“Wicchecraft the Way, the Powers that be, for the young and the old, the bold and the free. The Path is to know, the Path is to see, the way of the Ancients, as it used to be. All be Earth’s children of Sun and of Moon, down through the ages we’ve danced to the tune. The flow of all life through Goddess and God, none shall forsake thee, the Sword, and the Rod. Holy the Star that is worshipped in Truth, Morgaine, and Merlin forever in Youth. All is the Horned One, Fertility Rite, and Blessed Be Diana, in Love and in Light. Candles and Incense and Tools of the Trade, for Magus and Wicche Queen all debts shall be paid. Praise are the Elements Fire, Earth, Water, and Air, Celebrations and Sabbats, you will find us there. Blessed be the Power, and Bind ye the Cord, Blessed is the Union, and Love the reward. The Wicches song of the Ages echoes again, Blessed is the knowledge, long may it reign. The Path of the Wicche, the Path of the Wise, in Power and Glory, all Truth shall rise. We stand United, through Ages long past, the Truth that is Wicchecraft, forever shall it last. Gathered together those of the Kin, in freedom and Love beyond any sin. Merry Meet, Merry Part, tis Union for all, Blessed the Fellowship that answers Her Call!” Tamara Von Forslun 1978
