A number of you have been asking when the new edition of Isis Magic is coming out.

I’m excited to tell you that I’m currently reviewing the final files for the NEW 25th Anniversary Edition. And it’s definitely going to be THE definitive edition.

Me, proofing the files

It should be available in late April, and if you’d like to pre-order, use one of the links in the right sidebar of this blog. (If you’re on your phone, keep scrolling until you see the text between the Offering to Isis and Isis Magic books.)

The link for Offering to Isis at Miskatonic Books is above, and there are links for Isis Magic at Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and Bookshop.org, which supports independent bookstores. (Bookshop.org also has a pre-order discount right now.)

Here’s a bit about what’s new and why you might want to pick up the new edition, even if you have one of the previous ones:

New Things

Also me, working hard on the book

Folks have been asking for prayers to Isis, so this new edition contains (a lot of!) new prayers to Isis—for everything from protection, healing, and forgiveness to prayers for mourning.

There are also two new solitary rituals for opening your temple space. I have my personal favorite way to open my temple. How about you?

Every stage of your deepening relationship with Isis also has some new meditations for growing your connection with Her.

There are also new sections on Isis and Her LGBTQIA+ devotees, in ancient times and now, and a new section on the Isis aretalogies for when you’re at the deepest level of relationship with Her.

The physical book is different, too. For one thing, it’s a hardback. It is larger than the 10th anniversary edition and has lay-flat binding, so it will stay open on your altar as you work through the rituals. And I think there are several ribbons bound into it to help you mark your favorite rituals or meditations.

The new cover art; it has a lapis lazuli background with gold type and image

Updated Things

One thing I love about the opportunity to help create a new edition of this (now classic!) book is that I get to update things. In this new edition, I’ve clarified a few things about which I’ve learned more in the ensuing 25 years since Isis Magic’s first publication.

There’s also updated, gender-neutral language throughout the book. I’ve also included new titles for the stages of relationship with Isis in both ancient Egyptian and Greek. (Isis was very well known and loved in the Greek, and eventually Roman worlds.)

I can’t wait to see it for myself—and I can’t wait for you to see it, too. But I guess we’ll both have to wait till the spring.
