Book Description:
Everyday Enchantments is a love letter to the magic of everyday life, the sweet moments and the profound that we often overlook in our hurry to get from one place to the next. What if we had the power to unplug from our daily hustle and bustle and conjure a more profound way of living rooted in natural mysticism?
We do. All it takes is the whispered wish for more everyday enchantment breathed onto a dandelion head. This collection of essays reminds us to escape into the ordinary, find beauty in a simple cup of tea or rereading a beloved novel—and joyfully let our world turn upside down when synchronicity strikes in the form of wrong turns down forgotten lanes and unexpected midnight conversations with the moon.
This book is a study in what it means to live deliciously, joyfully, and magically. And it’s an invitation to conjure your own bliss—-because let’s face it: we could all use a little more magic in our lives.

Reviews and Endorsements
An insightful collection of short
writings that make you look at the everyday in a whole new light. ~
Erin Elliot, The Sword of Lumina
To build everyday bridges between
the magick and the mundane out of the long-sought and hard-won materials of
will and wonder is the act of a true Priestess. In this book, DeBlassie offers
rich glimpses of daily rituals, miniature spells in their own right that prompt
the reader to look for the quiet divinity in their own lives, to see the subtle
majesty in their day-to-day routines, and to question their perceived barriers
between the modern and the mystical. ~ Danielle Dulsky, author of Woman Most Wild
Maria DeBlassie has crafted magic
within the pages of her new book, Everyday Enchantments. Her eloquent words
offer the ‘promise of soul replenishment’ as one traverses the journey of her
-and their- metaphorical metamorphosis. Page after page, readers will
experience the soothing balm of DeBlassie’s words as they encourage one to open
her heart, her mind, her ear, her thoughts and her soul to the unique
transpersonal book they hold in their hands. Just as DeBlassie mentions early
on in Everyday Enchantments when writing of the unexpected delight of
discovering a double yolk, her heartfelt writing is like ‘cradling…gold’ in
one’s hands. Reading and absorbing the beauty of Maria DeBlassie’s Everyday Enchantments
will have readers conjuring their own magical life. Her words will caress their
soul and embrace their heart with inspiration and encouragement. Everyday
Enchantments blends together poetic consciousness such as from Maya Angelou and
Mary Oliver all while weaving in powerful and deep inner wisdom such as from
Clarissa Pinkola Estes. Yet, Maria DeBlassie beautifully stands out given the
uniqueness of Everyday Enchantments. It’s a must read and a must to be gently
and lovingly held in a sacred place of honor in one’s personal library.
DeBlassie’s Everyday Enchantments is like a heart song that every woman should
feel. ~ Janelle Alex, Ph.D.,The Writer’s Shaman
Reading this enchanted collection
is so much more than reading a book…it’s an unearthing of things
half-remembered and bringing them into the light. Gorgeous and luminous…thank
you, Maria, for unwinding this spell for your readers. ~ Laura Bickle,
critically-acclaimed author of Nine of Stars, Bewitching Book Tours
An insightful collection of short
writings that make you look at the everyday in a whole new light. Ponder how
different life could be if you stop taking everything for granted and find joy
in the simplicity of it all. ~ Erin Elliott, author of The Sword of
Lumina series, The Editing Hall
