BEST Astrology & Planetary Magick Books: Beginner To Advanced

[@lizawasadiver]

Your book recs are always THE best! I need to quit dragging my feet and pick up Practical Planetary Magick already :) Thank you for mentioning writing style a little bit too- my husband got me The Book of Thoth and that is proving to be way too dense for me at this juncture 😅 Still enjoying practicing with that deck tho.

[@Aurora-Saphira-26]

Happy Summer Solstice! And I wish you all the best with your last final tomorrow!! 💖

[@IvyTheOccultist]

Thank you so much!!

[@crystal_world305]

Happy litha to everyone 😊❤❤❤❤

[@joannokane8533]

You are adorable in your solstice attire, darling! Thank you for all your work and inspiration!

[@IvyTheOccultist]

Thank you so much! 💛💛

[@tjcrumsey]

Omg the Astology and Divine science is upwards of $200 even up to $400+ right now!!

[@thedarkestfateful]

This is an amazing video! I’ve been iffy on studying Astrology because from the little snippets I’ve read of it, it seems overwhelmingly intense and complicated but I will definitely be purchasing that beginners book.

[@sarah-cf2wo]

So glad you mentioned Jan spillers book. Such an incredible book that really hits hard. Like damn call me out why don’t you! And it’s great for people that don’t know astrology at all in my opinion because it focuses less on astrology and more on self improvement in general.

[@IvyTheOccultist]

Yes!!!! I can totally agree with that! ❤️

[@tustinnrent8502]

background is super-pretty

[@michaelkrull3331]

Christopher Warnock does have simpler books on astrological magic based on Picatrix that can get you started on those sorts of practices.

[@keekeejenkins6162]

I like him because he really did put in a ton of translation work with Picatrix. His website though🤯🤯

[@shayreynolds3812]

So I found a copy of Astrology: The Divine Science shortly after this video. I just got my copy and it is signed by the author!!

[@Weeping_lover]

Can you please tell me whether that book is based on Tropical astrology too?

[@Levongrova]

Question. Is there a possibility you could do a book recommendation on animal magick, spirit guides and working with your spirit team from a more witchy perspective? I absolutely ADORE your book recommendation videos. All your videos are so informative, but it’s also so helpful knowing which source you recommend when it comes to specific paths ♥️ anyway, blessed litha to you

[@IvyTheOccultist]

I can definitely do that! Let me add it to my list. The channel members ultimately vote on some of the topics I cover. I may potentially be doing an animal magick video next month but it will be geared towards a specific path. Let me add it to the list and I'll try my best!

[@Levongrova]

@@IvyTheOccultist Oh yay! Very excited to hear that! 😊 Immense gratitude to you 🙏

[@bagandbroad]

Just became a member! The planetary magick forecast is going to be such a great help! I get so overwhelmed by the planetary magick books I have and by keeping up with astrology, so I think this will help me a LOT to get into it. Thank you!!! And now I’ve bought a lot of books 😂

[@IvyTheOccultist]

Oh thank you so much! If you have any questions about the membership, let me know! I just put out a content poll yesterday so feel free to vote on that 😊❤️

[@LiveFromTheAbyss]

A great book is General Principles of Astrology by Aleister Crowley/Evangeline Adams

[@100ThatBruja]

I'm so happy I found your channel! I'm marathoning on your content and loving it, neurodivergent brains are wired differently and I needed this! I'm hoping to find something about tarot, because lately I'm having this urge to learn it... anyway, thank you so much for creating this space! Much love and blessings from México! Happy Summer Solstice! ☀Feliz Istaxali! 🌊

[@IvyTheOccultist]

Thank you so much!! I really appreciate that! 💛💛

[@CoralTheWitch2023]

Wow! You read A LOT and suggest SO MANY books 😂😂😂 I like that about you. You are so well read! I’m going to pick up the Practical Planetary Magic book … There is a Practical Elemental Magick book and a Qabala book by the same author. I mood read so much and I love to read romantasy and thriller books as well! There certainly is not enough time to read all of the books that I want to! Thank you for your recommendations!

[@IvyTheOccultist]

If it's any consolation, I read many of these a long time ago when I was building my astrology practice 😂 And thank you!

[@carlota.y.m]

Constelaciones from Carlotydes/ Carlota Santos is a great Spanish book that i like

[@Shadowman9348]

Oh damn! Now I gotta add these to my collection now. Especially that book moon on magick. I rarely use the moon, but I think I could benefit from it! Excellent content as always, the book reviews never disappoint. 🤘🍎🐍

[@IvyTheOccultist]

Thank you! I am happy to add books to your collection! 🖤

[@moodymakeup8512]

Happy summer solstice hope you have a blessed day and thank you for all your insight and knowledge ❤❤❤❤❤

[@IvyTheOccultist]

Thank you! Happy solstice!! 💛

[@seekingvision]

I tried learning natal astrology many years ago & it just didn’t click with me, didn’t inspire me so I switched to a deep dive into tarot & other forms of divination instead. Lately wider deeper planetary magic knowledge is really calling to me (in my crone years) as a way to reinvigorate & enhance my witchcraft thanks to you Ivy ❤

[@IvyTheOccultist]

Ahh I'm so happy you're interested in planetary magick! I can resonate with not clicking with natal astrology. I think it's a valuable tool to know at least the basics, but at a certain point... It becomes way too analytical for me. Planetary Magick is so fun!

[@ArdenGayle]

Instantly pulled up google to grab a copy of Astrology the Divine Science! Super excited to read it, thank you for all the recommendations ❤

[@IvyTheOccultist]

Woo!! So glad you got it!!

[@montanahelton1272]

I looked up Astrology the divine science and i couldn’t find it for under $180.00. It would make a good gift! I am not sure id be able to justify the price unless I asked for it for a gift on a special occasion/holiday. Thank you for the suggestions!! I’m always curious, and like you I have quite a lot of knowledge in astrology but I don’t feel advanced, or like I could call myself an astrologer.

[@jackpomeroy6910]

Authentic Astrology - by Demetra George is a great Hellenistic astrology book that is made for people new to astrology that want to learn the traditional way first !

[@MsNatalie_S]

Being an avid reader aiming to go paperless, I prioritise choosing digital formats over print, with some exceptions. Can you confirm if The Only Astrology Book You'll Ever Need by Joanna Martine Woolfolk is suitable for Kindle, or does it contain illustrations better suited for paper pages? Thank you for your suggestions.

[@angelaluztarot]

que maraviloso ya lo voy a ver aqui es yule!!! muy feliz solsticio

[@IvyTheOccultist]

Feliz solsticio de invierno para ti! Mi español no es bueno pero gracias por el comentario!

[@Heather1031]

Love the energy you radiate in your videos! So happy I found your channel!!

[@IvyTheOccultist]

🥹❤️❤️ Thank you so much!!! 😊

[@laurieyehle3256]

I found Moon Magic at 5 below.

[@ArchivistEmoceans]

Would you ever be down to do a series that is a guided reading and/or walkthrough The Three (four lol) Books of Occult Philosophy? I’m honestly having a hard time getting through the material due to the density. I didn’t want to get a modernized translation with commentary but ngl that was a mistake 💀

[@ArchivistEmoceans]

I also 100% understand if that’s something you’d only have/do for Patreon, though, since it’s pretty intensive work

[@stefanjakubowski8222]

Bless Be on these days Great video, by the way everyone should kmow how to erect a chart by hand, to understand the math and astronomy involved As a.kid, astrology helped me with my geometry math proofs Everyone shoukd have an empheris on their shelf if not desk, as a kid I started wirh the Horoscopr Maker and Delineator by the big Double L Psychstrology is alot like the Stephen Forrest stuff from the 80s that really helped me get a bit more comfort with astrology The Divine science is awesome❤, but there are many cookbooks that might be more approachable like the saokian books and a bit more affordable Moon magic is so approachable, we see her all the time As for Planetary magic I of ouurse started with Dennings&Phillips Oh , btw as a kid we worked the Philosophy Books, that came in 5 books, And if you are into the occult , the Picatrix and a couplenothers, should be on your shelves, however alot of the stuff has been percolated down unto modern times Again great video

[@spoiledwitch82]

I seen a book I'm interested from someone's post is there any chance you could tell me what it is from a page or two? I been trying to find out for a few weeks now

[@SiddharthaGuatama]

Thank you

[@srijitapaul288]

Wow love you face art I Will also do 😁😸

[@djjohnson6195]

Astrology The Divine Science is already selling for hundreds…. Too late for that one 😭😭😭😭

[@EmilysTarotandMagick]

I liked the Only Astrology Book You'll Ever Need as well and Astrology for beginners by Joann Hamper was really easy to understand but very basic. And yessss totally agree Chris Brennan's book is a game-changer for sure. I love a few oldies as well Demetra George's Mysteries of The Dark Moon and Love Signs by Linda Goodman 🥰 Demetria recently brought out the new volumes ancient astrology in theory and practice - they are on my list to get to at some point but I heard from a friend they are also really detailed and intense. I like The Archetypal Universe by Renn Butler as well. I am so curious to try to find astrology the divine science - it sounds like a good one! 🙏🌞💫Xx

[@IvyTheOccultist]

Oooo I'm totally going to have to check some of these out! I trust your astrology book recommendations because you know your shit! ❤️❤️

[@aquarianage5243]

I got that book 😂

[@rachelking2303]

Lol ivy what did you do ...... astrology divine science from £150

[@feralfoods]

This is incredibly helpful, thank you. - My ultimate goal is to know both tropical astrology and Hellenistic Astrology (mostly bk all of the old Magick uses that system) and yes, i do own the Chris Brennan book, but i've not gone all the way through it yet bk i keep getting stuck, mostly bk i have trouble memorizing everything. I like Chris Brennan's channel, but yes, even there he is often super dry and packs in tons of information! his shows are like two hours long! One of his Hellenistic Astrology videos features an old military man named Alan White who gives an old-fashioned flipboard lecture, with his uniform on! and it's about 2+hours long: kzbin.info/www/bejne/i2SrY4BsmbJ5a9k - btw, Astrology the Divine Science is around $50-$100 atm. 🪐

[@IvyTheOccultist]

I knew Brennan had a channel or podcast of some sort but I haven't checked it out yet. Thank you for the link! I clicked on it and I love that old-school flipboard lecture style. WOW, I can't believe that astrology book is up to $50-$100. I swear it was only $30 when I bought it a year or two ago. That's crazy!

[@seekingvision]

Thank you for this link, a new channel for me to explore 😊
