In her third and most important work, Juliet Diaz, the bestselling author of Witchery, offers an approach to Magic, spirituality, and healing like no other and takes readers through the deep work of decolonizing their spirituality.

The Altar Within: A Radical Devotional to Liberate the Divine Self is a work of spiritual revolution for all peoples, offering them practices and rituals in the arts of self-worship, self-discovery, and self-activism. The Altar Within is like no other approach to Spirituality, breaking through the vicious cycles of harmful and toxic spiritual practices and beliefs. Diaz speaks for those victimized and enslaved by colonization and offers a new take on personal development based in the resounding plea of our ancestors to live our Divined lives, the ones they could not have for themselves.

In the book, Diaz leads the reader through an exploration of:

Self-Worship: Here, the reader comes to ritualize the experiences of self-compassion, mindfulness, self-acceptance, and radical self-honesty, creating practices that help them to see their Divinity and Altar within. Through these rites, readers will have a better understanding of what it means to decolonize their Spirituality, giving birth to new spiritual practices while honoring the experiences of our ancestors. Dismantling the idea that Divinity must only exist from without, Diaz takes readers on a journey of powerful Self-Worship, connecting them into the Divinity that resides within all of us.
Self-Discovery: In this section, Diaz helps the reader to discover their Divined lives, but in a way that most teachers haven't offered. As Diaz shares, it isn't through our achievements that we find our purpose but through understanding the Divine self. Here, Diaz leads readers through practices in self-love, self-patience, and self-forgiveness, helping them to experience the stillness and wholeness needed to hear the messages shared by the Divine.
Self-Activism: Unlike traditional manifestation teachers, Diaz recognizes that manifestations are not brought forth by #goodvibesonly but by a real and committed process of activism, standing in our deep worth and sharing our humanity. In this section, Diaz offers a series of Devotionals to guide readers in the practice of Community Care, connecting the work not only with the Magic of manifestation but with our communities, our ancestors, and the Divine Self within.

Pushing back on #lightandlove and #goodvibesonly, Diaz dismantles the wellness industry, releasing readers from the practice of spiritual bypassing into a far more powerful experience of self, healing, hope, and Spirit. This book is for anyone, including those who can't afford to buy all the tools, pay for the expensive memberships, people who have real-life issues, illnesses, and hardships. Through The Altar Within, Diaz brings the Magic to real life, acknowledging our humanness by connecting with our Spirit.

The Altar Within will help readers create success in every area of their lives—from wealth, health, relationships, and personal development, to the nourishment of their relationship with the Divine self. As Diaz explains, when we can finally decolonize our spiritual beliefs, Divinity can be a super force in our lives, making us whole, stronger, wiser, and setting us on a path of transcendent activism. #magicalaf

What the witchy community needs

Reviewed in Canada on May 8, 2022

Juliet Diaz has a way with words. Has a way of making you feel, look inside yourself and make changes for the better. The Altar Within is a beautiful book that is needed. As a white woman, I try hard to learn and watch where my practice comes from. I do not want to step on or butcher practices from those before me or on indigenous people's sacred practices. This book is eye opening and empowering. It is a must if you are into witchcraft in anyway shape or form.

What Juliet has shared here is of her whole heart, and I am so thankful for it. As a mixed race person who has spent years working in predominantly Caucasian-influenced spirituality, it has been an absolute game changer to finally have resources rooted in a decolonial perspective. However, it is a book for everyone, not just the BIPOC family; everyone can find something to take away and learn with.

An absolute game changer

This book has changed my practice, has helped me change my mindset & heal some deep ancestral issues. It is a full study of radical self love & meeting divinity within.
If you're ready to cry & heal & WORK for it then this is the time to purchase the altar within.
Juliet Diaz shares so many experiences, thoughts that not only challenge you as an individual but clear any rose off if the glasses you see life through.

This book has helped give me a clearer lense into truth & beauty through healing myself first.

Thank you, Juliet for this priceless work at the reasonable cost it is.

A book that you will refer back to again and again

Reviewed in Canada on May 10, 2022

This is not a book that you read once and put away. There is so much wisdom and truth in this book. If you are a white person and are feeling attacked by this book, then I would suggest you take a deep look at yourself and what you are holding onto. Juliet's invitation to look within is the only way out of the colonial, patriarchal mess that we are in. So many spiritual books are all about love and light, toxic positivity, ableism, and victim blaming. As someone who has spent over 20 years in the yoga/wellness world, and I am now undoing the harm of "good vibes only" and the belief that I caused my chronic illness. Yoga and wellness are toxic af, and Juliet Diaz is the real deal.

Beautiful and challenging

Reviewed in Canada on May 9, 2022

Juliet Diaz never fails to amaze me with her works and The Altar Within is no exception. Without resorting to toxic positivity or spiritual bypassing, but instead helping us identify and avoid those types of practices, Diaz challenges the reader to recognize that we are Divine, we are our own Altar, and we can heal ourselves, our ancestral lines, and work collectively to end injustices in the world. If as a whyte person you're still ensconced in your privilege this book may be more challenging than you bargained for (this certainly seems to be the case for those who left reviews claiming the book/author is racist against white people, which is literally not a thing lol) but if you are ready to do the work, this book can be the gift you didn't know you needed.

You can't go wrong by investing in the guidance Juliet Diaz offers in her words

Reviewed in Canada on March 7, 2022

I would just like to say that I'm a little biased as I have read #julietdiaz two prior books and fell in love with her spirit. She writes from a very personal perspective but never do you feel excluded. Not only do I receive insight and direction but she also doesn't dumb down the realness by sugar coating the tough truths of the practice and what needs to be done. I enthusiastically endorse this authors voice.

A must read for anyone on their spiritual journey

For too long I’ve been surrounded by toxic positivity, nothing but “love and light” through friendships in my spiritual community and social media. I’ve been looking for support and tools I can use to break these cycles and this book was just that! The language in this book made it feel like Juliet is my best friend giving me tons of great advice!
This book covers many important topics such as making spirituality (and witchcraft) inclusive and accessible to all - something as a white woman I wanted to educate myself more on.
This book is a safe space for those hoping to delve further into some important but often overlooked topics in the online spiritual influencer world. We can all learn a lot about ourselves and the communities around us by reading this book so I highly recommend.
Juliet gives tons of great examples tips and advice on actions you can do which I love, it’s not vague at all.
Very inclusive language all the way through and even the illustrations at the start of the chapters prove spirituality is not a one size fits all. Use this book as guidance and support to make your spiritual journey one full of hard truths, serious self work, but also a journey full of self love, pleasure and love for others on earth

Exactly the book I needed right now

Honestly. This. Book.

I had known about Juilet previously, having her Witchery book and loving it.
I knew this book was around but hadn't quite got around to purchasing it.
The thing that pushed me to getting this book was hearing Juilet's story and how this book came to be on the Books and Broomsticks podcast (Matt Hatter Plays and Chaotic Witch Aunt)
I was travelling at the time and listened to the episode, having a massive eye opening experience on a train no less 😂
Woah. This book and this story is everything I need to hear right now, so I bought it.
I love it so far. It has helped me so much already and the extra content with QR codes is an absolutely amazing addition.
The only thing is I might not be able to bring myself to write in it as its so beautiful.
Definitely reccomend!

This book is radical, poignant, and liberating. I recommend it to everyone I speak to in my spiritual and witchcraft community, along with Witchery. Juliet writes in a way that is so powerful, insightful, and relatable. Each chapter evokes magick and inspires me to be the version of myself that I've been seeking connection to for so long, my Divine Self. This book is full of relevant guidance and support, and also comes with a mass of additional content accessed by a QR code to further your experience. I adore Juliet, and all her work. I highly recommend you purchase and read this book, even if it's the only book you purchase this year!

This book is already life-changing

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on May 7, 2022

Verified Purchase

I haven’t even finished The Altar Within and it’s already changed the way I see and treat myself, my craft, my faith and the world around me. Juliet’s work is so radical and challenging and DAMN, I needed it. I specifically wanted a witchcraft book that was empowering for me as a practitioner and as an anti-racist and feminist person in the world, and this is it. Juliet teaches you at once to recognise the divinity in yourself, and in those who society and the wider witchcraft community oppresses. Spiritual bypassing, the law of attraction and toxic misrepresentations of Buddhism have deeply harmed me as a trauma survivor, and this book is the opposite - I feel vindicated, cared for and validated by this special and incredible work of the human soul. My trust in my intuition and divinity are growing say by day! Do yourself a favour and buy this book - you are 100% courageous and worthy enough!

I purchased two copies of this amazing book as I have been listening to the audiobook and knew I needed it in physical form.
As a white person, I have not once felt judged or targeted whilst listening to this book. I welcome the truth that Juliet speaks and I think it is 100% necessary that she continues to call out the white washing of the spiritual movement.
Thank you Juliet for such a beautiful peace of work, you have changed my life with your words and your heart and I am sure I am one of many.
