PRIVATE LIFE OF THE HARE by John Lewis-Stempel
by: John Lewis-Stemple
Only £8.99 £10.99
The hare, a night creature and country-dweller, is a rare sight for most people. We know them only from legends and stories. They are shape-shifters, witches' familiars and symbols of fertility. They are arrogant, as in Aesop's The Hare and the Tortoise, and absurd, as in Lewis Carroll's Mad March Hare. In the absence of observed facts, speculation and fantasy have flourished.
But real hares? What are they like? In The Private Life of the Hare, John Lewis-Stempel explores myths, history and the reality of the hare. And in vivid, elegant prose he celebrates how, in an age when television cameras have revealed so much in our landscape, the hare remains as elusive and magical as ever.

111 ORACLE SPREADS FOR EVERY DAY by Krystal Banner
£9.99 £11.99
The author here has come up with a very good idea. With all the tarot decks and oracle cards we might have in our possession, we can get fixated on the cards themselves and the imagery there, and then never get round to making constructive use of them. With this book, we can get confident about reading our cards and coming up with the right spread for the occasion. The spreads are divided into 5 categories - general, love, career, spiritual and astrology - and thus we can become even more skilled in our choice. The book is most definitely not attached to any particular deck and it’s clearly laid out to make consulting the text a breeze. It’s not a profound book but it’s incredibly useful for anyone into their cards. PUBLISHED FEBRUARY 6th

12 ESSENTIAL OILS OF THE BIBLE by Karin Opitz-Kreher and Johannes Huber
£11.10 £12.99
Here’s another book from Earthdancer (see Shilajit) and like all their books it covers a mainstream subject in a slightly oblique way. There are 33 different oils mentioned in the Bible and here are 12 that the authors consider to be the most important, including frankincense and myrrh (of course) as well as cassia, myrtle, hyssop and others. The book is printed in colour and there are many photographs of the relevant plants. Each entry quotes the relevant Bible entry, gives a history of the use of that plant, describes its properties and gives suggestions for its use. It’s not a big book but every entry gets straight to the point and there is also general information on oils. On one level it is a book of essential oils but knowing they have been used in sacred settings on such a long-term basis gives them an extra resonance and perhaps even energetic power.
