Watkins Publishing

Independent book publisher sharing since 1893. The story of Watkins dates back to March 1893, when John M.

Watkins, a scholar of esotericism, overheard his friend and teacher Madame Blavatsky lamenting the fact that there was nowhere in London to buy books on mysticism, occultism or metaphysics. At that moment Watkins was born, soon to become the home of many of the leading lights of spiritual literature, including Carl Jung, Rudolf Steiner, Alice Bailey and Chögyam Trungpa. Today our passion for vigor

ous questioning remains resolute. With over 350 titles on our list, Watkins continues to be at the cutting edge. Our books reflect the development of spiritual thinking and new science over the past 120 years, and we stay committed to publishing titles that change lives.

ON THE BLOG

"The summer solstice is a time for seeing the bigger picture. The world isn’t all about our social networks and our possessions. For all the interventions of big corporations and aggressive regimes, the sun is easily the most important thing in this whole solar system and life can’t exist without it. Let’s celebrate that." - Adam Gordon, Cygnus Magazine Editor, Watkins Commissioning Editor and Watkins Media Office Manager.

We here at Watkins were shocked by the news of the vandalism that took place at Stonehenge yesterday. However, today is still the longest day. Today we celebrate the light and the sun. For all those who join together at the festival of Litha and mark the halfway point of the lunisolar year. Let's enjoy together in peace and unity.
