Loved Sea Magick by Rieka Moonsong, but I want more of it! It's meant to be a short primer on the subject, but truly each chapter and topic covered could be a standalone book. There's so much depth of information to be covered here, and I'd hope the author would do so in the future. I'd read it! Here we get great intro and beginner information about sea magick, including how to do it whether you are near the ocean or not. There's also great historical and mythological information, which is my favorite, plus practical ways to work with the energy of sea deities, creatures, plants, and even weather. If you're new to working with the sea, this is an ideal place to start and will point you in different directions for further study and practice if you're drawn to a particular chapter.

If you're a pagan drawn to the ocean, Sea Magick by Rieka Moonsong is an absolute gem. It dives into sea folklore, myths, and magical rituals, with special sections on ocean deities, marine creatures, and the magical uses of sea plants. The book is not only informative but beautifully designed, making it a pleasure to read.

Whether you're practicing sea magic or just love the mysteries of the ocean, this book offers spells, meditations, and rituals to connect with the water’s energy, even if you're far from the shore. A captivating and insightful addition to any magic collection!

What a beautiful, magical book. As someone who grew up near the ocean and is a bit if a Sea witch, this book will be part of my collection. The photos through out were stunning and the information was great!
Highly recommend this book for anyone wanting to know how to work more closely with the water.

This is such a beautiful book for pagans who feel a connection to the sea. It has sections on folklore and myths related to the ocean, weather events, sea animal energy invocations, and my personal favorite- magical uses for aquatic plants. I did feel the Atlantis section was a little silly, though- specifically, the section to "find out if you were an Atlantian in a past life." That's my only reason for going down to 4 stars. Otherwise, the book is beautiful and well done.

I grew up on the ocean and took it for granted. Now that I no longer live near the ocean, it lures me home like a siren song - I need to smell the ocean air, hear the waves, feel the ocean wind chill me, and I’m often wondering when I can get back.

This book was wonderful to read - beautifully illustrated (that cover ❤️) and laid out on soothing blue watercolor, it’s aesthetically a joy to peruse. Beyond the looks, there’s folklore, meditations, and spells.

I enjoyed this a lot while also finding it be a take what you choose and disregard the rest book. Much of it wasn’t for me personally, but what was worked well.

I think the book should come with links to access recorded meditations from the book.



Thank you to Rock Point and NetGalley for the PDF
