Book Description
Learn to “see” the forecast in the hidden weather signs all around you—from the New York Times–bestselling author of How to Read a Tree and The Lost Art of Reading Nature’s Signs In The Secret World of Weather, bestselling author Tristan Gooley turns his gaze up to the sky, bringing his signature brand of close observation and eye-opening deduction to the fascinating world of weather. Every cloud, every change in temperature, every raindrop, every sunbeam, every breeze reveals something about our weather—if you know what to look for. Before you know it, you’ll be able to forecast impending storms, sunny days, and everything in between, all without needing to consult your smartphone. But The Secret World of Weather goes far beyond mere weather prediction, changing the very way we think about weather itself. Weather is not something that blankets an area; rather, it changes constantly as you walk through woods or turn down a street. The weather is never identical on two sides of a tree—or even beneath it. Take, for example, Gooley’s remarkable discovery that breezes accelerate beneath a tree. To Gooley, this is “weather,” a tiny microclimate that explains why people sit beneath a tree to cool down—not only for the shade but, subconsciously, for cooler breeze. And so Gooley shows us not only what the weather will be like five days from now, but also what to expect about the weather around every corner. By carefully observing the subtle interplay of wind, cloud, fog, temperature, rain and many other phenomena, we not only form a deeper understanding of weather patterns, but also unlock secrets about our environment. Weather forms our landscape, and landscape forms our weather. Everything we see in the sky reflects where we are. When we learn to read weather’s signs, Gooley shows us, the weather becomes our map, revealing to us how it has made our towns, cities, woods, and hills what they are. You’ll never see your surroundings the same way again.

Weather Witchery details how to use weather events to fuel your magical flow while Days and Times of Power isolates specific solar and lunar aspects that maximize the astrological punch to your personal energy work.

Praise for Weather Witchery: "Lucid, very lucid writing! Awesome book. Practical and interesting information. New insights into natural magic are provided." (Merlyn) "Wit + Weather = Wonderful. Very informative. As always, Ms. Rasbold has shown a wit and charm in her writing. There are some very interesting facts, that show her time and effort in her research. I am highly comfortable in giving this title to my tween daughter to read and learn these aspects of weather magic. Great add to my collection." (Amazon Customer) "From Storm to Sun This Book Shines!! Thank you Katrina for this informative, fun and wonderfully useful book. As with all her writings Katrina's wit and knowledge shines through in Weather Witchery. From the history of storms to the power they harness we learn what each weather type stands for, brings with it and how to use that energy to empower ourselves and those around us. On a personal note I was able to finally release the dilemma of doing a working, am I changing something not meant to be change?. As Katrina points out, maybe my very act itself is part of the solution. Never again will I be frozen in indecision, to act rationally, with thought and good intention is preferred any day to inactivity. I was also reminded how empowering, beautiful and yes magical a storm can be. I recommend this book highly!!" (Tammy C) Praise for Days and Times of Power: "The Sun, the Moon, and Other Things. Another offering in the BioUniversal Energy Series, here Ms. Rasbold explains how solar and lunar influences, as well as yearly events and weather, can affect our own personal energies. Now that we've gotten a feel for how BioUniversal energy works from the other books in the series, we can start to expand our knowledge and abilities by taking into account these other variables. Whether you're an astrologer, an experienced energy worker or a BioUniversal Energy student, there is something useful and thought-provoking here for you." (K Albeck) "We have all learned how some people feel the effect of the full moon or how certain winds create negative energy, or the 'dog days' of summer. Well, this book goes into the important times of the year and what their significance is and how they can affect us and how we can harness that energy for positive results. Many of the important days fall near popular holidays, and it's no secret that many of our traditional holidays were adopted from non-Christian religions. As a Christian seeking to better understand God's natural world, I found this book to be especially helpful. God did make the moon and sun and stars to mark the seasons and times. We have gotten away from all that with our science and modern traditions, but this book re-awakens the ancient knowledge and can teach you a lot about the natural rhythms in our lives. Getting to read this book just before it was published has been a special privilege. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did." (Cowa)
