The Great Work: Self-Knowledge and Healing Through the Wheel of the Year by Tiffany Lazic

4.0

Disclaimer: I received an eARC from netgalley in exchange for a review. I also purchased this book because highlighting PDFs are hard.

The Great Work by Tiffany Lazic is indeed a "great work." This book is a year-long magical working that has the potential to change your life. It blends psychology, elemental working, divination techniques, breathing meditations, and alchemy in a workbook. It's a huge undertaking and I'm amazed at how well Lazic pulled in all these resources into a successful and cohesive book and program. Yes, this book is a year long program that includes journalling questions for you to answer daily.

It took me quite a long time to read; but it was so well worth it. In just a straight through reading I've learned a lot about myself, some of my own habits and where their source may have come from. Lazic distills the bits of alchemy down so well that I could begin to see the applications in my own personal life.

BOTTOM LINE: If you are looking for a group project book, or a way into doing your own version of The Great Work... then this is the book for you. I guarantee you'll learn something about yourself that helps you stay on your path.
