"Tattoo Magick not only explains, but directs on constructing, empowering, energizing and making even more sacred the very symbols we use to mark our skin as workings of magic and a conduit of spiritual identity from consciousness to flesh."

"Every part of our life can be enhanced by, and serve, our magick, a truth exemplified in Jake Morningstar's Tattoo Magick. This book offers useful reflective practices to envision the tattoos that express your soul and serve your spirit, and practical suggestions and advice to get the best results for your spiritual tattooing experience. A great read for those passionate about tattoos or contemplating getting one, or five!"
—Anthony Rella, author of Slow Magic and Circling the Star
"If you've ever felt that inexplicable craving for a tattoo or the indescribable joy that comes from having that ink under your skin, you know it: a tattoo is a magical thing. Getting a tattoo is a ritual; having a tattoo is a spell. That's why we all need Jake's book: so we can dial in the magic, use it deliberately, and make it work for us. Tattoo Magick is a long overdue gem. There should be a copy on the shelf of every tattoo enthusiast, artist, and studio. Don't get a tattoo without it!"
—Tess Whitehurst, author of The Halloween Forever Oracle and The Tarot of Secrets
"An incredibly thorough magickal guide, artfully connecting pathways from the history of magickal tattooing through to a myriad of ways the modern witch can implement these practices for themselves. Morningstar does a wonderful job of imparting honesty, humor, creative inspiration, and practical, magickal advice throughout the book. The writing and the ideas are accessible to newcomers to both tattooing and witchcraft, but there is also plenty of innovation and depth here with which to keep the seasoned magickal tattoo practitioner excited and entranced. Tattoo Magick inspires the reader to use magick to create tattoos and to use tattoos to conduct effective magick, thereby forming a virtuous cycle of luminosity between the intersection of the two. As someone who has been using tattoos magickally for decades, I know I will return to this book often as a magickal reference, and I can highly recommend it to my fellow practitioners of the Craft."
—Nikki Wardwell Sleath, founder of the Society of Witchcraft and Old Magick, and author of Dream Sorcery, The Goddess Seals, and more
"A thorough and magickal exploration of tattooing from a modern witchcraft context. Jake explores everything from the magick of ritual, symbology, and preparation, all the way to picking the right tattoo artist and modifying existing tattoos. As a heavily tattooed witch myself, I wish this book existed when I started on my own tattoo journey. Jake shares his experience and magickal expertise in a conversational tone that not only makes it accessible, but it left me excited to get another magickal tattoo!
