Familiarize yourself with the ways of Wicca with this practical, illustrated guide to the basics of witchcraft. In addition to spells and meditations, this handbook (written by a Wiccan priestess) examines the Wiccan faith and festivals, and what it means to live by magic in the modern world. Each chapter contains a blank section for recording magical experiences and dreams. Interviews with real witches provide unique insights into the religion`s values, and an entire section is devoted self-initiation. Pragmatic concerns such as working with other witches, ritual requirements, and even how to make a magic wand are included. 192pgs. 8x11 $24.95
