A Time for Magick
by Maria Kay Simms

Buy a Personalized Signed Copy

Timing is Everything!

Astrology is the Queen of Timing! One of the great benefits you can gain through astrological knowledge is the ability to choose the appropriate time for your purposes.

A Time for Magick shows you how to work toward your magickal, spiritual or mundane goals in harmony with the movements of the planets. Here you will learn easy techniques for planning ahead with astrology. You'll gain a new understanding of the themes of the Sun, Moon and all eight planets of basic astrology: Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto. More significantly, you'll learn to conjure planetary energies within yourself and to use those energies creatively and advantageously in your life.

A Time for Magick


In this book, you'll discover:

  • Rituals with spellworkings for the Sun, Moon and each of the planets
  • Guided meditations for each of the planets
  • Perpetual planetary hour tables and how to use them
  • Interpretations for your planetary hour of birth
  • How to read and use an astrological calendar
Don't wait and wonder what the planets may mean to your fate. Take charge of your destiny by directing planetary energies to your best advantage!


Endorsements:

Many people don't realize, or have ignored, the powerful impact timing can have when performing magick. Maria Kay Simms, an expert in both magick and astrology, has helped reestablished the important link between magick and the planets in a way that is easy to understand and logical for the 21st century. She also forges a new path by examining the meaning of the planetary hour at birth. A Time for Magick enables us to tap into sources of incredible power for ritual work. No matter what type of magick you do, don't leave this book on a dusty shelf. It should be on your desk so you can consult it frequently. That's where I keep my copy.

—Donald Michael Kraig., Author of Modern Magick

Whatever you want -- love, health, wealth, happiness -- is more likely to be achieved if you make the right moves at the right times. A Time for Magick shows you how to do that -- quickly and easily.

—Maritha Pottenger, author of many astrology books, including Complete Horoscope Interpretation, Easy Astrology Guide and Starway to Love

Maria Kay Simms makes a significant contribution to the fields of both astrology and magick with her book, A Time for Magick. The wealth of astrological information she provides can help magicians from any school of thought to enhance their work -- and her rituals are both beautiful and powerful.

—Skye Alexander, author of Magickal Astrology, Planets in Signs, and Hidden Agenda

Reuniting magick and astrology, Maria Kay Simms brings us a definitive work long overdue in our community. An absolute must if you wish to increase your magickal expertise!

—Silver RavenWolf, author of To Ride a Silver Broomstick, Teen Witch and many other titles

A lucid and long overdue book that bridges the gap between the world of the modern day astrologer and that of today's practicing ritualist. Maria Kay Simms has effectively cut through the medieval jargon often associated with the traditional method for determining planetary hours and presented the system with new clarity, honesty, and freshness. A "timely" edition that will benefit every priest, priestess, and magician who wishes to add a new dimension of potency to their magical rites and ceremonies.

—Chic Cicero and Sandra Tabatha Cicero, authors of many titles including Creating Magical Tools, Golden Dawn Tarot Mini-Kit and Experiencing the Kabbalah

The use of planetary hours is one of the oldest techniques in Astrology, but they have been too little used by modern astrologers…Maria's book is just the practical guide to their use that is needed…and she does this in ways that modern users can readily understand and appreciate.

—Robert Hand, author of Planets in Transit, Planets in Composite, Planets in Youth, Essays on Astrology and Night and Day

Astrology is a very complicated system, and difficult to learn. Ms. Simms has extracted one component necessary for proper ritual, explained the theory behind it, and most importantly, provided a means for correct usage. This extends the value of astrology by making it more accessible to practitioners who do not wish to make astrology their specialty.

—J. Lee Lehman, Ph.D., author and expert in Horary and Electional Astrology, Martial Artist and Herbalist; winner of the 1995 Marc Edmund Jones Award
