CAT SPELLS by Claire Nahmad
The household cat, one of our best-loved domestic pets, is the most mysterious of animals. Worshipped as a god in the culture of ancient Egypt, this beautiful and aloof creature has long been associated with magic and mythology, from the obligatory black cat featured in fairy tales and childhood stories to the more obscure folklore connections between cats and good luck or misfortune. Drawing on and inspired by the manuscripts of her great-grandmother, a Victorian wisewoman, Claire Nahmad explores the historical links between cats and spell-weaving, transcribing over fifty charms - some familiar, some more obscure - passed down through generations to form part of traditional English folklore. Some of the spells featured here bring good luck, and health and happiness in love; others enlist the help of cats to predict the weather and foretell the future; and there is even a section for the naming of cats and the qualities a particular name will encourage in the pet.
Claire Nahmad has written a number of bestselling books on feminine spirituality, angel communication and the reality of angels. The inner worlds of spiritual percipience have been open to her since early childhood and her intuitive explorations inform her writing. Her books, published in 30 countries and translated into 20 languages, have a strong following world-wide and are frequently utilized in mind-body-spirit courses and workshops. She lives in rural Lincolnshire in a cottage with her cockerel, Coleridge.
