Witchcraft and Wiccan Books

If you are on a budget, or simply don't want to purchase dozens of books on the Craft, this is the book for you! A modern Solitary Witch can practice for a lifetime with only this book for guidance. While I believe that one should read everything one can get on any subject of interest, this book will be my primary source from here on.

Let me first say that I have long been a fan of this authors practical, down to earth and open sharing of her practice and experience. I find those who refer to her books in a negative way are usually those who resent her success and her openness in sharing what some would like to use to boost their own ego by wanting others to think that the practice of the craft is some deep dark secret know only to them and their tradition or group.

As for me, I will be selling many of the books I have accumulated over many years of practice as a Solitary Witch, as I will be using the spells and rituals in this book instead of digging through a dozen books to find just what I'm looking for.

There is a chapter devoted to the young witch or wizard. If you are a Crone, like myself, don't skip this chapter. Who but us will bring along the next generation? We need to know what is important and practical for the Teen Witch so that we can be better and wiser teachers.

Earth, Air, Fire, and Water : More Techniques of Natural Magic is a great place to start learning magick. Folk magick is simple but very effective if you put your heart into it. Many people find no need to go further than this unless they prefer more grandiose ceremonial magick. Great introductory principles about the philosophy of spellcasting is probably the most important part of this book, though it is probably best to read this in more detail in Cunningham's guides for the Solitary Practitioner or similar books. Scott Cunningham provides great learning material and outlines for spellcasting, but I think it is important to remember that spells you create yourself are often much more effective. The guides to creating your own magick in the back of the book are at least as important as the spells. This sort of magick reinforces the important fact that tools are nothing without the magician. Folk magick is often frowned upon by many more experienced practitioners of the craft, but it is useful to remember that which the book reminds us: the simple things in life are usually the best! --Ariana

Earth Power is a great book for those who are new to Witchcraft and interested in Natural Magick. Cunningham provides useful information while his explanations and instructions are easy to follow. The spells featured in the book are actually "do-able"; they don't require fancy robes, precious hard-to-find stones, and even harder-to-find herbs. They are very simple and to-the-point, which is extremely helpful for us who dislike long, complicated rituals. You wont find any long, rambling chants. Instead, Earth Power contains short, simple chants for a practical and natural form of magick.
This is NOT a book for Wiccans. You'll not find the rules and basics of Wicca nor will you find any ceremonial magick.
Earth Power is a how-to book without the rigid rules that you often see in occult books. It does not teach, it guides. It guides you and inspires you to create your own magick YOUR way. --Lisa Johanna Keemink

Embracing the Moon : A Witch's Guide to Rituals, Spellcrafts, and Shadow Work by Yasmine Galenorn From traditional notions such as the idea that a mirror facing a door is a magical portal, to contemporary ideas like the construction of a magical collage from magazine clippings, Galenorn successfully combines the old with the new in this accessible guide to witchcraft. Emphasis on witchcraft, because from the start, Galenorn firmly states that she is a witch, not Wiccan, and while she has nothing against Wicca, she strongly feels the two are not the same. While this viewpoint may consternate some readers, she has a point. Compared to the methods of most covens, her work is much less formal, which many beginners or solitary practitioners will find attractive and which also makes this a good book to read if you find yourself in a magical rut. --Brian Patterson
