THE NIGHT SCHOOL
Lessons on Moonlight, Magic, and the Mysteries of Being Human
An interactive magical course that guides readers through the enchanted mysteries of the night, from ancient philosophy and archetypes to divination and astrology, from the author of The Illustrated Herbiary, The Illustrated Bestiary, and The Illustrated Crystallary.
Organized into semesters and courses like a university--ranging from Midnight Foundations (Philosophy 101) to Myth Making (Creative Writing 101) to The Star Chamber (Astrology 101) -- this illuminating manual offers short nightly "lessons" complete with reflections, exercises, homework, and even extra credit to help readers connect with the power of the night and explore the deeper mysteries of being human.
In an era when our daytime hours are increasingly uncertain and people are turning inward to reevaluate what really matters, The Night School encourages us to contemplate our dreams, inner longings, shadows, relationship to the natural world, and the ancient traditions of mystical thinking--all by the light of the moon.
For anyone interested in spirituality, folklore, mysticism, witchcraft, healing, and self-exploration, The Night School is a highly creative journey into the magic of the night.
Maia Toll, dubbed "a real life Professor Sprout from Harry Potter" by Forbes magazine, is the bestselling author of the Indie- and Nautilus-Award winning book The Illustrated Herbiary which has now been expanded into a successful series. Maia has apprenticed with a traditional healer in Ireland which reawakened an interest in natural philosophy and mysticism which had been a large part of Maia's academic studies at The University of Michigan and New York University. She has taught Botanical Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania, West Chester University, and Pennsylvania Hospital. She regularly teaches at conferences and festivals where she encourages people to use patterns and metaphors from the natural world to help them understand and grow within their own lives. Maia lives in Asheville, North Carolina, with her life and business partner and their two ridiculously spoiled dogs.
