The Mermaid's Mirror

Water, in Lucy Cavendish's telling, is the element of feeling, memory and renewal, and the mermaid is its guide. A witch and longtime writer on magick, Cavendish uses the mermaid's mirror as a way of looking inward: at your emotions, your relationships, the memories that need healing and the happiness and sense of purpose worth celebrating. Her reflections sit alongside words from poets, dreamers, writers and explorers who have felt drawn to the mermaid over the centuries, and alongside 44 full-page colour illustrations.

Part book and part journal, it is printed on cream paper with a mix of lined and unlined pages, so there is room to write, doodle, paint or draw your own responses as you go. A lovely gift for anyone who keeps a journal, feels at home by the sea, or likes their spiritual reflection to come with beautiful pictures.
