Summary

Renowned spiritual teacher and co-founder of The Way of the Rose Perdita Finn teaches the art and healing power of connecting with the dead, as she guides listeners through the magical process of conversing with the unseen world.

What if you could live in a world where the guidance of those who were gone was available, right at your very fingertips? It's possible, if we are open to it. Anyone can reclaim the forgotten guidance of the dead, and anyone can return to the realm of magic and miracles. In Take Back the Magic: Conversations with the Unseen World, author, spiritual teacher, and co-founder of The Way of the Rose Perdita Finn reveals that life is beginningless, love is endless, and those who have passed don’t truly go anywhere when they die. Weaving together memoir, history, and a non-denominational spirituality based in ecology, Finn invites listeners to live the experience that the stories of our lives are much older, bigger, and more merciful than we have been led to believe.

Take Back the Magic takes the listener on a journey of healing, possibility, and love, as the story of how Finn healed her relationship with her bitter patriarchal father long after his death unfolds over the course of thirteen moving chapters. Along the way, listeners will learn how they, too, can reconnect with the generous guidance of the soul’s long story through deep time, recovering their lost relationships with their ancestors and the Earth itself. Throughout, Finn shares guidance, tips, and practical advice that will aid listeners in forging their own relationships with those who have passed, as she invites every listener to reconnect with their own inner knowing and to call forth magic from the most ancient parts of humanity.

An inspiring invitation to healing in this life, and to experience that we are never alone, Take Back the Magic shows that the whole world is simply souls reaching out to and finding each other—and no one is ever truly lost to us, if we allow ourselves to begin our own conversations with the unseen world.

Critic reviews

"I have never read a book that creates a rapport with the dead with such skill and ease. What becomes clear early on in this wonderful book is that Perdita is a rare woman who has found a way to reside comfortably in the world of the living and the dead. This truly is a must-read book."—Caroline Myss, Author of Anatomy of the Spirit and Intimate Conversations with the Divine

"Perdita Finn is a masterful storyteller who captivates her readers in tales of wonder, enlightenment, and magic. You’re guaranteed to enjoy the adventure.” —Julie Ryan, Author of Angelic Attendants: What Really Happens As We Transition From This Life Into The Next

"What I love about this book is the warm, practical, spirited way Perdita explores the cycle of birth, death, and rebirth. Hers is a wisdom devoid of preachiness, quickened by curiosity, overflowing with love. Beautifully written, luminous, and earthy, Take Back the Magic makes conversations with the unseen world feel obvious, accessible, and our best hope for thriving amid the turmoil of the current age."—Mirabai Starr, Author of Caravan of No Despair and Wild Mercy

Beautifully written

This book is powerful. Not only has it the magic that the title states, it offers a deep heart centred devotion and sacrament to the altar of ancient ancestral knowing of the cycles of life.
I look forward to reading more of Perdida’s beautiful prose

The ultimate unseen love story

Not an easy subject to communicate through prose but the author’s use of autobiographical story telling hooked me in. Photos and objects of my grandparents who passed are coming out tonight and I will trust deeper in my ongoing remembrance. A beautiful book and an important voice of our time. The cycle of life (and everything in between - seen and unseen) is the ultimate love story.

A Beautiful heartfelt gift of a book. Brilliantly read by the author. Especially recommended if you have recently lost a parent. I’ve actually listened to it through twice now.
