A modern take on the yearly almanac with a seasonal self-care focus, including journal prompts, tarot spreads, herbal and gemstone allies, as well as rituals for your year.
The Soul Care Almanac - A Year of Magical Self-Care
The Soul Care Almanac is more than a book. It's your guide back to yourself. Our society is so focused on productivity and what material things we have that we've lost part of who we are. We climb the ladder, we check the boxes, but we don't feel fulfilled. Instead, we find ourselves empty.
We try to fill the hole inside with more things, we scroll on our phones and fill our calendars. But the hollow remains, haunting our every step.
So you look out your window and see the trees swaying in the wind. Your mind catches on the birdsong and the rustle of squirrels. And a part of you remembers, recognizes something important here, something vital.
Nature holds the wisdom we've been searching for. The sun, moon, and stars are guiding us through the seasons of our year, offering us lessons in tending to our souls.
The Soul Care Almanac weaves this seasonal wisdom into a guide of stories, journal prompts, card spreads, rituals, lunar guides, and herbal recipes for our mind and body. There is no right or wrong with how you use this seasonal handbook. You can put it down and pick it up as often as you wish. It is always there for you, ready when you need it.
The Soul Care Almanac is a journey through the year, its seasons and lunar cycles. The almanac includes an introduction for those just getting acquainted with our astrological guides: the moon, stars, and sun. It is further separated into the seasons and then the zodiac seasons within those quarters.
Each zodiac season is full of seasonal wisdom to support your journey. Energetic insights, tarot and oracle card spreads, journal questions, lunar rituals, gemstone allies, herbal support, and seasonal crafts are all ready to guide you through the year ahead.
This full-color, hardback book contains 187 pages. It was written and designed by Sara McCormick. No AI was used.

Hi, I'm Sara, your cosmic guide to finding your path through the forest of your soul. I believe that astrology is more than knowing what's coming our way; it's a tool for slowing down, aligning with the wheel of the year, and, most importantly, uncovering more about who we are.
The Soul Care Almanac is my ninth book and is a wonderful companion to my best-selling planner, the Soul Care Planner.
Because of the volatility of the current market, this Backerkit is only available for US and Canadian customers. Shipping fees will be collected post-campaign in Pledge Manager. The estimated shipping date is February 2027.
Even though I didn't offically begin writing The Soul Care Almanac until 2024, I feel like I have been writing it all my life. I've always been drawn to nature and seasonal living and in 2024 I felt the call to pull everything I know into one sacred space that folks could return to again and again. In August of 2026, the samples for the book and all the accessories were approved. If the campaign is successful, the production phase will begin in October 2026. Barring any delays, the book will start shipping to backers in February 2027.
