A pocket-spellbook that investigates and celebrates spiritual healing, instinctually tying together the earth and women’s bodies. Through essays, fiction, poetry, interviews and spells GAG Issue 2 delves into the roots of occult earth wisdom passed through generations of women against persecution and patriarchy. Texts are accompanied by rich black and white images ranging from pen and ink illustrations to enigmatic photography.
