About
Maggy brings together prosperity and spirituality in inspirational, practical and liberating ways. Nick Williams, author of The Work We Were Born to Do.
‘Maggy has lived and breathed this teaching for decades and it shows clearly in both her life and her work. She is witty, down-to-earth and unpretentious.’ Jane Struthers, Bella magazine Astrologer and author of The Psychic Bible: The Definitive Guide to Developing your Psychic Skills (Godsfield).
‘We can experience prosperity, health and joy whatever the external circumstances and Maggy can show you how.’ Dr David Hamilton, author of It’s the Thought that Counts (Hay House)
If you’re seriously ready to move from scarcity to a prosperous and joyful way of being in the world, let Maggy Whitehouse be your guide. She’s been on both sides herself and wants you to join her in living the most abundant possible life. Barbara Winter, Author of Making a Living without a Job, Bantam.
Maggy Whitehouse is living a life of miracles. She is a lifetime student and teacher of Kabbalah in the Toledano Tradition, the author of 20 books on spirituality, Kabbalah, prosperity consciousness and Bible metaphysics — both factual and fiction — and started out as a stand-up comedian at the age of 56.
Her work is to lift hearts and souls; to help people find their own perfect path to a faith where they know they are held, loved and guided. Maggy works with individuals, groups and corporations bringing laughter, hope and wisdom to the table. She offers workshops across the UK, Europe and USA and retreats in her home county of Devon.
Maggy has worked in newspapers, radio, TV, for the BBC’s famed World Service and, most recently, as a slightly heretical Sunday morning faith presenter for BBC Radio Devon. She made it on to Wikipedia after writing a sensible book about Opus Dei at the time of all the palaver over The Da Vinci Code.
In this life of miracles, she has been widowed, divorced, healed from cancer, worked as a hospice chaplain, ridden on a Bengal tiger and survived a barracuda attack off the Barrier Reef. In 2000, after a failed emigration attempt to Montana, USA, she became the first person in the world to bring her dog from the USA to the UK on Passports for Pets. Maggy took Didcot to Spain for six months to qualify her as a European dog.
Maggy’s first book, co-written with her steam-engine enthusiast father, Patrick Whitehouse, was China By Rail. This led to her presenting the Channel 4 documentary Manchuria Express and meeting her first husband, sound recordist, Henry Barley, in Beijing. Ironically, Henry had gone to school with Maggy’s brother and lived less than five miles away.
It was Henry’s death one year after their marriage which brought Maggy into spiritual work.
With her second husband, she co-founded and edited Tree of Life, the Midlands’ holistic magazine which ran until 2006. Maggy has written for women’s magazines since 1999 and is a regular columnist for Unity’s Spirituality and Health magazine. In 2023, she won first prize in the US Folio: Eddie Awards for best consumer essay.
In 2015 Maggy found herself in the finals of the UK’s prestigious Funny Women competition and now she performs at private events with a mix of comedy and inspiration.
In 2024 she trained in sacred geomancy with Richard Creightmore and Jewels Rocka and now uses that knowledge with her Kabbalistic understanding of the patterns of the Universe to heal damaged underground waters, Leys and human-caused damage to the land.
Since 2004, Maggy has been married to astrologer and Kabbalist Peter Dickinson. In comedy, she often says, ‘my first husband is dead; I haven’t worked out what to do with the second one yet but no. 3 is a keeper – though he does get a bit worried when he sees me digging big holes in the garden.’
She is co-host of the Podcasts Wise Women: The Vicar and the Witch with Suzi Crockford and Train Wrecks for Jesus with Rev. Mark Townsend.
Both Maggy’s mother and her Bishop think she should get a proper job.
