Product Description
The Sun impacts our lives like no other force in the universe. In addition to sustaining life on Earth, the potent energy of this mighty star can lend a powerful spark to daily magic.

Taking readers on a magical exploration of the Sun, Dorothy Morrison teaches how the Sun can be used as a viable magical tool. She gives in-depth information on the Sun's cultural and religious history, its phases and energies (rainbows, solar eclipses, Sun storms, and so on) as they apply to magic, and astrological implications. Everyday Sun Magic is also packed with over 140 spells, chants, affirmations, and rituals spanning 89 categories, such as health, employment, friendship, romance, weather, gardening, prosperity, marriage, legal matters, travel, addiction, and dieting.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent look at the Sun and its Special Magic, November 18, 2004
There are many books written about the feminine Moon: moon phases, moon rituals and moon Goddesses. Dorothy Morrison presents us with a book on the much neglected male side of our religion, the Sun, exploring the yang side of Wicca and the Craft. Ms. Morrison focuses on the lore, the astrological correspondences, the rituals, and the spells for the other half of our balanced lives.

The book is divided into two sections. Part One is called Embracing the Sun This part of the book covers the lore of the sun, how it has influenced our lives (very basic: the hours of the day - how we come to count and measure time) to how it continues to be an influence in language, song and story. She covers some symbols associated with the sun and their meanings. She also examines how the sun relates to religion, from worship to Deity to our own Goddesses.

The book discusses the aspects of the Sun, in relation to the male energies it personifies. We follow the energy as through the growing phases of man, from infancy to old age, giving us a refreshingly easy to understand look at this energy and what it represents. This becomes important when we look at the magic involved and how it is going to relate further on in relationship to times of day, magical correspondences and energy.

It becomes apparent that this book was well thought out. The book flows from idea to idea like thoughts on a train, one leading right into another. I was impressed with the research and how well Dorothy crafted this book, enabling anyone to pick this up and understand the basics.

The book progresses to the astrological correspondences of the sun. Though the explanations are brief, there is a lot of information crammed into this section, along with an affirmation for each sign. The purpose of this section is not to discuss details of sun influences on the individual, but set the stage for working rituals and magic and how the correspondences will be associated with the celebrations and magical work being introduced next. We are given a brief but exact look at Virgo Sun or Libra Sun, for example, to understand the next steps. Again, a good, even flow to the work makes it easy to follow and a pleasure to read.

The last part of Part One is about Sun ritual and celebrations. While it starts with the basics, it again follows the astrological correspondences to form rituals that blend with the energy of each sign.

Part Two gets into what Dorothy Morrison is best known for, her spells and spell work. She is, I feel, the mistress of the modern day spell. No one writes them better or makes it easier to work them successfully. Each set of spells is laid out according to the Sun energy you will need to successfully work and attain a specific result. We reference back to the stages of the male growing up corresponding to the time of day, and the energy necessary for the intent of your work. So we have Dawn: Infant/Child; Morning: Adolescent Brother/Lover; Noon: Father and so on. She keeps it easy to understand and makes it very easy to learn. And of course, she gives you they kind of spell you will need to achieve your working. Creativity, for example, is placed in Dawn: Infant/Child, and she gives us a Crayon Spell, which is a delightful little spell. She includes the materials needed, when to do this spell, the ritual to perform and a chant/rhyme for focus to enable your spell to work.

All her spells are like this. Simple, using material you probably have at hand or can easily access. No bat's blood or eye of newt but simple items like crayons or ribbons. This is kitchen witchery at its finest, providing practical application of the KISS principal with elegance and charm to make it special.

I want to also note that there is some higher forms of magic included in this section that have been brought down to much more accessible levels for those who practice and want something more substantial. While none of Ms. Morrison's spells are fluffy, she has included a Home Blessing which includes the Magical Seals of the four archangels. Very High Magic, but easy to achieve.

There is also an Abuse spell which utilized the Sigil of Samael, another tool of High Magic. Also, please note, Ms. Morrison starts this spell off with her usual practical advice:
"Abuse is a serious matter: Please take whatever mundane steps are necessary - calling the police or filing a complaint come to mind here - before performing this spell. "
Oh, how wonderful that she includes this kind of common sense advice for a topic that many feel is so easily overcome with a simple spell or charm.

Now for the extras. Ms. Morrison is not only a great spell worker but she also has great recipes that she usually includes in her books. This one is no exception. There is an Appendix in the back called Celebratory Drink Recipes and there are some great mixed drink recipes in this book that will blow you away. While not suggesting you get plowed with these, the mixes are fabulous, great tasting and in some cases, can be made sans the alcohol and still be a great celebratory mix. I love the Frozen Sunrise Margarita.

There is a great bibliography for further reading. My copy of this book is an uncorrected proof, and did not contain an index. Hopefully there will be one with the finished book.

All in all, a great way to learn, understand and to work with the Sun and its energies and a great balance to the Moon energy we seem to have in abundance these days. This is a very wonderful book to add to your collection. boudica

5.0 out of 5 stars At Long Last, February 24, 2005
I have been studying the Craft fully for the last 2 years. One of the things Iv noticed is the reverance for the Goddess, the Moon, and speaking of equality.
But....their is very little on the God who is represented by the Sun as the Goddess is the Moon. Ms. Morrison had corrected that mistake with this book. I read about it nearly a year ago and have waited for it. A worthy wait indeed. I have nothin bad to say about this book as it is a great way to help Craft Brothers and Sisters connect with the Consort of the Goddess
