Cherry Gilchrist is an award-winning author whose themes include mythology, alchemy, life stories, esoteric traditions, and Russian culture. She is a graduate of Cambridge University, and holds a post-graduate diploma from the University of Bath Spa.
Her broad range of titles covers books both for adults and children, such as the popular Stories from the Silk Road, the well-known Alchemy, the Great Work, and the ground-breaking Circle of Nine, about feminine archetypes and how they integrate with the everyday lives of women. Russian Magic is an insider's look at Russian myths and folklore, based on Cherry's many visits to Russia, and her book Tarot Triumphs explores divination through the rich symbolism of traditional Tarot cards. The Circle of Nine: An Archetypal Journey to Discover the Divine Feminine Within is published in the USA and UK by Weiser Books in a new, expanded and updated edition. Cherry is also an experienced lecturer and writing tutor. Venues for her talks have included the Temenos Academy, NADFAS, the British Council, the Cheltenham Festival of Literature, and The Royal Academy. She has recently given talks for the Exeter Literary Festival and the Topsham Museum, Devon. She lives near Exeter UK, with her husband, artist Robert Lee-Wade, with her daughter and two granddaughters nearby.

Further excellent news!
'Kabbalah: The Tree of Life Oracle' will be republished as a box set (cards, book, layout sheet) by Eddison Books in May 2020. I have had many requests from would-be purchasers, after it went out of print a few years ago, so I'm delighted that Eddison Books are re-issuing this. There will be a few changes to the actual physical presentation of the set, plus the re-jigged title to emphasise the Kabbalistic connection, but the cards and book of interpretation will stay exactly the same. |
Do visit my blog! I write about 'all and everything' there, covering present passions and past curiosities. Most can be found through 'categories' and I hope to get all of them listed this way soon. It's somewhat of an occasional activity but over the last few years I've built up a library of posts that I'm proud of.
Russian Magic is also now available on Kindle, again from Endeavour Media. Learn about ancient Russian customs, and the nature spirits of the forest and river!
