Nicholas Pearson is a flower essence practitioner and researcher whose love for plants grew alongside his love for the mineral kingdom. Best known for his work with crystal healing and Reiki, Pearson is also a practicing witch and occultist. An internationally acclaimed presenter, Pearson is the author of several books, including Crystals for Karmic Healing and Crystal Basics. He lives in Orlando, Florida.
“An exceptionally talented man, whose words are as beautiful as the
flowers he explores, Nicholas Pearson has now created a must-have
book for anyone interested in spirituality, magick, and the subtle
use of plants. Profound and engaging, this book is a worthy and
important addition to any flower essence library.”
*Candice Covington, author of Essential Oils in Spiritual
Practice*
“Flower Essences from the Witch’s Garden is one of the most
extensive compendiums on flower essences that I have ever read. Not
only is there an in-depth exploration of a whopping 100 essences,
but Nicholas also shares his extensive knowledge of the magick of
essences that includes discussions of plant spirits, devas, the
alchemy of essences, and so much more. If you read only one book on
flower essences, look no further, because Flower Essences from the
Witch’s Garden has it all.”
*Pam Montgomery, author of Plant Spirit Healing*
“Everything we need to know about working with flower essences for
healing, magick, personal development, and more. This book is
destined to be a classic magickal reference book on the shelves and
in the hearts of witches everywhere for generations to come.”
*Tess Whitehurst, author of The Magic of Flowers and The Magic of
Trees*
“This book offers an important resource to the world of flower
essences and fills a unique niche for students of this healing
modality. Nicholas provides empowering tools for creating our own
garden magick and getting to know familiar plant allies in a new
and dynamic way. Weaving inspiration and practical guidance, this
is a book you will not only benefit from along your personal
healing journey but will also enjoy savoring to the last page. A
treasured reference in my library for years to come!”
*Emily Ruff, executive director of the Sage Mountain Botanical
Sanctuary*
“An enchanting combination of medicine and magick. From describing
the humble origins of flower essences to sharing practical
guidance, magickal formulas, and personal insight, this book will
enlighten both the beginner and those that are already enjoying the
transformational effects of flower essences. The flower essence
directory is an indispensable resource.”
*Fay Johnstone, author of Plant Spirit Reiki*
“An in-depth and detailed book about co-creating at the devic
level. Through this magickal work, Pearson practically and
intuitively connects us to the energetic medicine of flower
essences, which first and foremost treat the spirit. He reminds us
that we are a world in need of spiritual medicine.”
*Thea Summer Deer, author of Wisdom of the Plant Devas*
“When I think of the term witch, I think of its etymology--wit (to
know; wisdom)--and the feminine-style knowing that comes from deep
listening. For those of us whose mission is to forge paths for
scientific and mainstream accessibility of clinical flower essence
therapy, Flower Essences from the Witch’s Garden reminds us, in
rich detail, to keep our wit aligned with the spiritually animated
world of the plant kingdom, or, dare I say, queendom.”
*Loey Colebeck, translator of Bach Flower Essences and Chinese
Medicine*
“Nicholas Pearson has given us a lucid and balanced explanation of
flower essences. He is careful to define the terminology in a clear
way. His focus on developing a context for flower essence use
within magickal and ritual contexts fits perfectly with the subtle
and metaphysical reality of essences.”
*Sue and Simon Lilly, authors of The Healing Energies of Trees and
Their Flower Essences*
“Nicholas Pearson performs the rare magick of creating an
accessible guidebook to working with the plant world in a way that
feels thoroughly modern. This book shows us a world in which
natural science and natural magick work hand in hand to craft an
informed spiritual path that is overflowing with wonder.”
*Fire Lyte, author of The Dabbler’s Guide to Witchcraft*
"There really isn’t an area related to flower essences that isn’t
covered in this book, which comes in at around 500 pages! This is
truly a master work on flower essences, and it opens up a whole new
realm of working with these amazing formulas. Flower essences are
used to help people with all sorts of mental, emotional and
spiritual issues and are used frequently in alternative medicine.
Their magickal potential is evident, as presented so expertly by
Nicholas Pearson!"
*Coby Michael, author of The Poison Path Herbal*
