Here is a list of noteworthy books that are directed towards the #LGBTQ+ community. I tried to not go overboard so I kept it down to the ones I have actually read or been introduced to. I did not intentionally leave anyone off of this list. Feel free to add more to the comments section!

The most recent orders I sent out last week. DivinePraxis.etsy.com

A white person's light pink fingers gold a fine silver pendant with a triangular bail on a sterling steel chain. The pendant is round and a little larger than a quarter with a bright silver border and sigil of Lucifer both rising up from the recesses of the pendant. The recesses have a dark gray patina from liver of sulfur.

The pendant is round and a little larger than a quarter with a bright copper border and seal of Babalon both rising up from the recesses of the pendant. The recesses have a dark brown-black patina from liver of sulfur.

Hail, Lord Hermēs, as your heavenly body of Stilbōn in its chariot rides into the light-shining heart of Hēlios!

Looking for something to recite for the Mercury cazimi (exact in just a few hours, 00:13 US-EDT)? Give my "Hymn to Hermēs Sōtēr" (the Savior) a whirl!

My Patreon is up! The link is in my Linktree.

Let's face it, though "Three Books" has been a great success, metaphysical books don't usually earn a living wage unless you crank them out. I hope this Patreon can free me up more from my dayjob life & free me up for writing. More time = better books.

Like Inanna, wear your worth unapologetically. Your scars, your fire, your softness are all sacred. The world may call you "too much," but remember that systems of oppression fear those who embrace their wholeness.

My thought for affect as a noun (thanks psychology degrees, I guess): An affect has 2As because emotions rarely occur one at a time.

Got an email on Friday that my business license was renewed, but I didn't renew it! (I should have a while ago, apparently... thanks, adhd.)

My online account hadn't been logged in to since July of last year (until I just did now), so did someone go in and renew it for me? Fluke of the system? Wtf?

what people think astrology is: "your career is heating up this week!"

what astrology actually is: "on a moon-mars conjunction in cancer, sign of the boob, I found an actual splinter in my nipple and it was mildly upsetting"

Hey there, cis friends.

Please, please read this thread.

The current regime is coming for trans healthcare. All of it.

If you want to support us, that starts with knowing that they're lying to you, and HOW they're lying to you. This will help.

Thank you.

emily moonlight @threnody.bsky.social · Apr 3

hi, cis folks!

so, when they release the US cass review that makes the cass review look like a trans liberation manifesto, i think you should

• ask who’s making the case against transition

• answer whether they have trans people’s best interest at heart

• listen to actual trans people instead 🧵

Max Kozlov @maxkozlov.bsky.social · Apr 3

NEW: After cancelling nearly all projects on trans health, the Trump admin has now directed the NIH to study the negative consequences of transitioning.

This will create “a distorted research ecosystem where only politically favorable findings are permitted to exist”, researcher Harry Barbee says.

Skull Scrying, even, but... close enough.

Tai Fenix 🌹❤️‍🔥🗝⚕️💫 @taifenix.com · Apr 3

The piles on the windowsill next to my bed. A combo of my most recent acquisitions and current research/study, as I do most of my reading and research from my bed. Top book on the left is Skull Skrying by Lupa.

I'm really wanting a bookshelf headboard to get these off the windowsill.

Two piles of many books on a white windowsill, with many evergreen trees blurry out the window behind them. Left pile from top to bottom is: a very thin book with no space for the title on the spine (it is Skull Scrying by Lupa), Three Books on Life by Marsilio Ficino, Treating Trauma and Addiction with the Felt Sense Polyvagal Model by Jan Winhall, The Greek Magical Papyri in Translation trans. Hanz Dieter Betz, On the Revolutions of the Years of Nativities by Abu Ma'shar (trans. Ben Dykes), Mathesis by Julius Firmicus Maternus (trans. James Holden), The Gorgon's Guide to Magical Resistance ed. Laura Tempest Zakroff, The Language of Birds by Dale Pendell, One Time Around the Wheel by Sean Croke, and Gender/Fucking by Florence Ashley. Right pile from top to bottom is: The Book of Oberon trans./ed. Daniel Harms, James R. Clark, and Joseph H. Peterson; The Mirror of Stones by Camillo Leonardi (trans. Margherita Fiorello); Slow Magic by Anthony Rella; Marsilio Ficino ed. Angela Voss, Astronomica by Manilius (trans./ed. G. P. Good); The IC: An Astrology of Coming Home by Pallas K. Augustine; The Great Introduction to the Science and Judgments of the Stars by Abu Ma'shar (trans. Ben Dykes); and Carmen Astrologicum by Dorotheus of Sidon (trans. Ben Dykes).
