Dolls have been beloved companions and instruments of magic for millennia. They are among the most ancient Egyptian and Roman artifacts. Not only playthings for children, they also provide lifelong comfort and companionship. In the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, dolls developed therapeutic uses, especially for traumatized children and people with dementia. But dolls also possess a long history as a tool of divination, witchcraft, and the occult. In The Spiritual Magic of Dolls, Najah Lightfoot bridges these two uses—companionship and magic—to enable readers to develop profound magical and spiritual relationships with their own dolls.
 
Many have beloved dolls displayed on shelves or sitting in boxes. What if you could do more with them? Najah Lightfoot shows you how. Perhaps you still have favorite childhood dolls or have been gifted with a doll or inherited one from a relative or friend. Many people are extremely attached to one or more dolls—this book teaches you how to take that attachment to the next level.
 
Najah Lightfoot teaches how to develop a magical and spiritual relationship with your dolls. Najah writes, “This book is crafted, written for the magical practitioner or the person who has a love of dolls, who would like to learn how to bring them comfortably, lovingly into a working and familial relationship. The Spiritual Magic of Dolls seeks to connect readers to the love of dolls, especially dolls that may have had a hard life before they ended up coming into the lives of the reader. It is written for those who find themselves drawn to dolls and wish to be closer to them in magical, loving ways.”
