Defying Shadows is a self-help book for pagan cancer patients living through surgery, chemotherapy, radiation, and medicated survivorship. This book offers practical support and magical advice from a pagan point of view to help those with cancer and other chronic conditions.
Witching through Cancer In October 2019, Jess Settergren received some life-altering news: she had breast cancer. Despite living in a world where breast-cancer awareness is highly visible and offers a great deal of support, she found herself uniquely alone, as none of the options for patients and survivors featured a pagan perspective. With Defying Shadows, Settergren fills the gap for pagan- and witch-friendly cancer support. Within its pages, you will find gentle, easy ways to perform spells, meditations for wellness, and low-energy rituals for every sabbat. Find your peace and embrace the now with Defying Shadows.Author Biography
