Village wisewomen and men, the community's witches, have always
helped to heal wounded lives. When disaster strikes, such as
serious illness or some kind of abuse or loss, or when we're
struggling through things such as divorce or family conflict,
today's hedge witchcraft can still give us the means to help
ourselves or others. There are, for example, spells to banish the
spirits of cruelty or injustice. There are ways of countering the
ill effects of spiteful thoughts which others may hold about us. We
can rebuild our sense of ourselves by magic that holds us true to
our real life purpose, throughout any crisis. What is presented
here is not superficial and not a shortcut. Rather, it is a
powerful process, a method which can be adapted to any situation
where help may be needed.

Each card message in this deck is an invitation to listen to Mother
Earth's guidance; each spell, ritual or invocation an opportunity
to bring these lessons off the pages and into your daily practice;
and each illustration a reminder that we are part of nature, not
outside of it. With bodies of every shape, size, skin tone and hair
texture represented, this deck affirms we are all Mother Earth's

As one of the fastest growing Pagan traditions, Feminist Wicca
appeals to many through its emphasis on the deep interconnectedness
of life and its focus on the woman's religious experience. In
Hidden Circles in the Web, scholar and practitioner Constance Wise
explores Feminist Wicca through the lens of process thought,
developing a new theaology of feminist spirituality that can enrich
and deepen the religious practice. Although the twentieth-century
philosophy of process thought is often portrayed as a complex and
inaccessible system, Wise explains its concepts in simple language
and illustrates her points with accessible examples from life. Wise
invites readers into the hidden wisdom of Feminist Wicca and
process thought, proposing statements of Feminist Wiccan beliefs
and practices in six areas: history, anthropology, epistemology,
ethics, cosmology, and theaology. While the focus of the book is on
Feminist Wicca, her insights into process thought apply to an array
of traditions and will interest a range of practitioners and
scholars across the religious spectrum.
Harness the mythic power of the Celtic goddesses, gods, heroes and
heroines to aid your spiritual quests and magical goals. This book
explains how to use creative ritual and pathworking to align
yourself with the energy of these archetypes, whose potent images
live deep within your psyche. The book begins with an overview of
49 different types of Celtic Paganism followed today, then gives
specific instructions for evoking and invoking the energy of the
Celtic patheon to channel it toward magickal and spiritual goals
and into esbat, sabbat and life transition rituals. Three detailed
pathworking texts will take the reader on an inner journey where
they will join forces with the archetypal images of Cuchulain,
Queen Maeve and Merlin the Magician to bring their energies
directly into the reader's life. The last half of the book clearly
details the energies of over 300 Celtic deities and mythic figures
to evoke or invoke the appropriate deity to attain a specific goal.
The book should help solitary pagans who seek to expand the
boundaries of their practice to form working partnerships with the
divine.
'a brilliant history' The Sunday Times 'makes for riveting reading'
The Independent Modern pagan witchcraft is arguably the only
fully-formed religion England has given the world, and has now
spread across four continents. This second edition of The Triumph
of the Moon extensively revises the first full-scale scholarly
study of modern pagan witchcraft. Ronald Hutton examines the nature
and development of this religion, and offers a history of attitudes
to witchcraft, paganism and magic in British society since 1800.
Its pages reveal village cunning folk, Victorian ritual magicians,
classicists and archaeologists, leaders of woodcraft and scouting
movements, Freemasons, and members of rural secret societies. We
also find some of the leading figures of English literature, from
the Romantic poets to W. B. Yeats, D. H. Lawrence and Robert
Graves, as well as the main personalities who have represented
pagan witchcraft to the public world since 1950. Thriller writers
like Dennis Wheatley, and films and television programmes, get
similar coverage, as does tabloid journalism. The material is by
its nature often sensational, and care is taken throughout to
distinguish fact from fantasy, in a manner not previously applied
to most of the stories involved. Meticulously researched, The
Triumph of the Moon presents an authoritative insight into an
aspect of modern cultural history which has attracted sensational
publicity but has hitherto been little understood. This edition
incorporates new research carried out by the author as well as
research by others who have been inspired by this book over the
twenty years since its first publication.
