From the host of #1 witchcraft podcast The Comfy Cozy Witch, Jennie Blonde has created a deck that represents her singular brand of authentic and comforting witchcraft. Jennie has used divination to tell fortunes since childhood: Her mother introduced her to the runes, her grandmother to spirit boards, and all of the women in her extended family—her mother, grandmother, and aunt—often sat around the kitchen table together, reading each other's cards. This deck is Jennie's way to process those cherished memories into a warm and gentle method for understanding the past, present, and future. The cards represent qualities, tools, and spiritual and animal energies. A regular practice working with this deck will help develop intuition and self-knowledge, as well as a feeling of protection that will strengthen any user's path forward through the world. Each card is accompanied by keywords, a mantra, a message, and a prompt for introspection that can make readings multifaceted and rewarding in a unique and special way.

“Jennie’s blend of witchcraft and hygge resonates so deeply with me. In Hearth and Home Witchcraft, Jennie’s book is a joyful and supportive exploration of domestic witchcraft. Nourishment and comfort are important themes here, as is accessibility; you don't need a background in magick to start exploring hearth-craft.” —Arin Murphy-Hiscock, author of The Green Witch, The House Witch, and other booksFor author Jennie Blonde, witchcraft is, in and of itself, comforting. Sure, there are not-so-comfortable parts as well—working with the shadow, coming face to face with that which holds you back. Jennie’s witchcraft is about connecting with the magic of nature, your higher self, and something beyond—a deity, deities, Spirit, the universe—and being comfortable with your true self in all aspects of your life.“In times of anxiety,” Jennie writes, “I turn to my practice. When I need a moment of calm and reflection, I retreat to my sacred space for quiet meditation, pulling tarot cards, and journaling to nourish my soul. When I want to nourish my family, I turn to my garden and herbs and cauldron (my stockpot) for a bit of kitchen witchery. When I wish to nourish my body, I turn to mindful movement, self-care rituals, and spell work. And throughout the day, every day, there are small rituals I perform to keep me connected to my practice. It’s all of those things together that are the heart of my craft.”Hearth and Home Witchcraft explores the following topics: rituals for protection and cleansing the hearth and home kitchen witchery, creating a kitchen altar, and recipes and rituals for nourishment the witch’s altar, tools, and spells, and creating a sacred space, no matter the size of the home herbs and plants, grounding rituals, and meditations to connect you with the earth witchy self-care, complete with rituals and recipes for ritual bath salts, oils, balms, and more
