The Waxing Soul

by Bridget Owens

Spirituality is not a one-size-fits-all proposition. Join writer, alchemist, and pagan community organizer Bridget Owens for a deep dive into what spirituality is and how to build a deeply personal tradition. If the pre-packaged traditions don't seem to fit or you've never found the deep connection you're looking for, The Waxing Soul offers food for thought and guidance to find your own brand of mindful modern magic. Grow your soul, expand your spirit, and nourish your spiritual life in an exploration of religion, philosophy, psychology, culture, ritual, and our place in the universe.
