Minerva Siegel is a writer, author, sensitivity reader, tarot consultant, and longtime practitioner of witchcraft who haunts a Victorian home in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, with her gruff Taurean double-Virgo husband and their motley pack of rescue dogs. In addition to this book, she’s the author of Tarot for Self-Care: How to Use Tarot to Manifest Your Best Self and Spell Jars for the Modern Witch: A Practical Guide to Crafting Spell Jars for Abundance, Luck, Protection, and More, as well as a dozen licensed tarot decks. Minerva is a disabled wheelchair user. Though the physical body has limitations, there’s freedom and power in fully tapping into our own magickal potential. Her many guidebooks help readers do just that. You can find her on Instagram @Author.Minerva.Siegel.

Lisa Vannini is an Italian illustrator with a degree in Japanese Studies who decided that she was probably better off as an artist after getting lost on a sacred mountain in Kyoto for 6 hours. She’s worked as a concept artist in animation with Amazon and Jam Media, and as a freelance illustrator specialising in everything that is magical, mysterious, and out of the ordinary. In her spare time she enjoys watching Korean horror movies in her jungle-like house with her cat Moka and travelling to remote locations chasing after spooky folk-tales. When she’s stressed she buys another plant.
