Shamanic practice seeks healing and wisdom from realms that overlap the everyday world. The use of plant and animal medicines, vision quests, trance work and ceremonies to heal one's self and others are the foundations of shamanism. So too, Wicca and witchcraft use the magic and medicine of plants, animals, and other realms. By learning to incorporate the practices of shamanism, the witch can enhance his or her natural abilities as healer and creator of positive change. "The Shamanic Witch" outlines the many similarities between the art of shamanism and the craft of the Witch and explores how the overlapping of these two traditions can be used to enhance one's practice. Where witchcraft brings the belief and religion, Shamanism brings the skills. Sections include: Understanding the World of the shaman, Creatures and Spirits of Other Realms, Developing a Shamanic Practice, The Toolkit of the Shamanic Practitioner, The Realms of the Witch, and Melding Worlds: Becoming the Witch-Shaman.From the book: 'As Witches, we have an advantage when learning shamanism. The training in meditation and the movement of energy in ritual and spell work, give the Witch knowledge of how the energy of the Universe works. The Witch already sees herself as the tool through which energy flows and is directed. In addition, the Witch usually has an understanding of one or more divination techniques and is accustomed to the idea that wisdom comes from a variety of places from within and outside of the self'.

Compiled from original manuscripts and fragments in the British Museum Library, Joseph Peterson, s new presentation is the most complete and accurate edition of this famous magical grimoire, "The Lesser Key of Solomon the King". He goes to great length to establish the provenance of each part, and possible derivative works, including critical analyses of all major variations, utilizing fresh translations of earlier magical texts such as Johann Trithemius's Steganographia, The Archidoxes of Magic by Paracelsus, and newly discovered Hebrew manuscripts of the original Key of Solomon. He also outlines the sources and omissions in previous, modern editions. Included in this comprehensive edition are:
-- Goetia -- The ritual invocation of evil spirits and Solomon's devices for binding them;
-- Theurgia Goetia -- Slightly less diabolical than Goetia, this part continues the study of spirits "partly good and partly evil; "
-- Ars Paulina -- Outlines the good spirits or angels governing the hours of the day and the signs of the zodiac, purported to have been discovered by the Apostle Paul after he had been snatched up to heaven. Includes "The Conjuration of the Holy Guardian Angel; "
-- Ars Almadel -- Attributed to an Arab of the same name, it describes twenty beneficial spirits that govern the zodiac;
-- Ars Notoria -- With roots that go back to 13th-century Latin manuscripts, and probably even earlier oral traditions, this collection of orations or prayers is interspersed with magical words said to have mystical properties that can impart communion with God and knowledge of divine and human arts and sciences;
-- Appendices, which include addenda found in Sloane manuscript Johann Weyer's Psuedomonarchia demonum, and variant examples of some drawings.

Abundantly illustrated, Peterson includes reproductions of the original magical circles, tools, and seals of the spirits with variations of certain drawings from various sources and notae missing from earlier editions. He draws on the most recent research by esoteric scholars such as Claire Fanger, George Mora, John Shea, Claudia Rohrbacker-Sticker, I. P. Couliano, Robert Turner, Adam McLean, and others, making this an essential addition to the library of any student of ritual magic and the Western Mystery Tradition.

What makes this book unique? The world of the gray witch has been largely avoided, misrepresented, or glossed over with various books geared gingerly towards 'protection magic'. These books, though informative and well written as they may be, have totally missed the spirit of the gray witch - - who she really is, how she relates to the world of shadow and light, and exactly what she's willing to do to stand her ground. In our society 'dark' is automatically viewed as 'evil'; and 'light' is automatically viewed as 'good'. We're expected to live completely within one realm and to totally avoid the other. This creates imbalance and is a great injustice to the true spirit of the ancient wise woman. This book puts matters to right and gives the public a view of just what the gray witch is - and what she isn't. The gray witch does not live in a world of chaos or unbridled black magic. She has a code of honor, a sense of propriety, and a relevance in today's society.

First published in 1974, this book established itself as a seminal text of the magical revival--a thinking person's guide to the unthinkable.

Keep it Simple A Simple is a philtre derived from a single herb and was an important element among the natural resources of the parish-pump witch, wise-women and cunning-folk. Simples are common kitchen 'stuff' that have been handed down through generations of country people in the form of family cures for everyday ailments. Or as William Fernie wrote in his Herbal Simples (1897) The art of Simpling is as old with us as our British hills. It aims at curing common ailments with simple remedies culled from the soil, or got from home resources near at hand. These were no fancy recipes with magical formulae, and, often given as a tisane, the woman of the household was able to use the remedies to treat common ailments suffered by her family. And, this elementary form of domestic plant medicine can be as simple as a cup of chamomile tea made from flowers picked fresh from our own garden to aid sleep. This was the most elementary way to use medicinal plants since no fancy recipes or scientific acumen was needed. But this element of traditional witchcraft has long been in the shadows ...
