Book excerpt: Smoke Gets in Your Eyes meets Women Who Run With The Wolves in this "gorgeously written, fierce, political, personal, and deeply inspiring" (Michelle Tea) memoir about finding meaning, beauty, and power through a life in witchcraft. An initiation signals a beginning: a door opens and you step through. Traditional Wiccan initiates are usually brought into the craft through a ceremony with a High Priestess. But even though Amanda Yates Garcia's mother, a practicing witch herself, initiated her into the earth-centered practice of witchcraft when she was 13 years old, Amanda's real life as a witch only began when she underwent a series of spontaneous initiations of her own. Descending into the underworlds of poverty, sex work, and misogyny, Initiated describes Amanda's journey to return to her body, harness her power, and create the magical world she longed for through witchcraft. Hailed by crows, seduced by magicians, and haunted by ancestors broken beneath the wheels of patriarchy, Amanda's quest for self-discovery and empowerment is a deep exploration of a modern witch's trials - healing ancient wounds, chafing against cultural expectations, creating intimacy - all while on a mission to re-enchant the world. Peppered with mythology, tales of the goddesses and magical women throughout history, Initiated stands squarely at the intersection of witchcraft and feminism. With generosity and heart, this book speaks to the question: is it possible to live a life of beauty and integrity in a world that feels like it's dying? Declaring oneself a witch and practicing magic has everything to do with claiming authority and power for oneself, of taking back our planet in the name of Love. Initiated is both memoir and manifesto calling the magical people of the world to take up their wands: stand up, be brave, describe the world they want, then create it like a witch.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Everything You Need to Know About Wicca, from Best-Selling Wicca Author Lisa Chamberlain People from all walks of life find themselves drawn to the Craft and its mystical secrets. For some, this interest is a passing fancy. For others, the Craft is instantly recognizable as the answer to something they've been searching for their whole lives. This "chance" encounter can lead to a spiritual journey that can last a lifetime. If you feel called, somehow, to Witchcraft, you might be wondering what to do next. What steps should you take? How can you develop and deepen your knowledge of the subject? How can you make it a part of your daily world? You might also find yourself asking questions like "what makes a Wiccan Wiccan?" Although not a requirement, many Wiccans and Witches wish to formalize their commitment to the Craft. This is known as initiation, and, for many, it represents a defining milestone on any spiritual journey. A Guide to Initiation Traditionally, initiation was associated purely with covens. In the first few decades of the rise of modern Witchcraft, covens were really the only option for learning and practicing what became known as "the Old Religion." One had to be initiated into a coven to fully access all of the knowledge its members held, and usually had to take an oath of secrecy so that the teachings and practices remained hidden from outsiders. These days, of course, anyone can learn about and practice the Craft on their own, in a uniquely personal way. You no longer have to be part of a coven to be initiated. You can initiate on your own terms, in your own style. Self-initiation (often called self-dedication) is now a widespread and respected tradition among Wiccans and other Witches, and can be a very affirming, and even life-changing experience. It's an act of declaration to the Universe that you fully embrace your belief and participation in the Craft. It's an affirmation of your continued exploration and learning, and of your welcoming the blessing and assistance of the gods, the spirits, the energy, or however you describe your relationship with the seen and unseen manifestations of All That Is. If you want to learn more about initiations-including a step-by-step guide to performing your own self-initiation-this book has everything you need. However, this book isn't only for people who want to learn about initiation. It also contains information for anyone looking to adopt a more magical daily existence. Living a More Magical Day to Day Life Despite the many benefits of initiating, an initiation ritual is not going to suddenly transform you into a full-time Witch all by itself. It's still, and always will be, a process-a process that you are responsible for. So don't think of initiation as the end of your journey-think of it as an important milestone along the way. Ultimately, you reap what you sow. The more effort you put into developing your understanding of the Craft, the more immersed into your day-to-day life it will become. This is one of the biggest challenges faced by Witches today. In addition to information about initiation, this book also contains a dedicated section for anyone looking to deepen their involvement with the Craft, by making it part of your daily routines. In it, we'll explore some ideas and practices that, over time, can deeply enrich your day to day life as a Witch, expand your capacity to attract magical manifestations, and navigate your way through challenging times. Is a new, magical way of life your ultimate goal? Good, because this book has all the information you need! Download now by scrolling to the top of the page and selecting the buy button.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Imagine yourself sitting on the cool damp earth, surrounded by deep night sky and fields full of fireflies, anticipating the ritual of initiation that you are about to undergo. Suddenly you hear the sounds of far-off singing and chanting, drums booming, rattles "snaking," voices raised in harmony. The casting of the Circle is complete. You are led to the edge of the Circle, where Death, your challenge, is waiting for you. With the passwords of "perfect love" and "perfect trust" you enter Death's realm. The Guardians of the four quarters purify you, and you are finally reborn into the Circle as a newly made Witch. Coming to the Edge of the Circle offers an ethnographic study of the initiation ritual practiced by one coven of Witches located in Ohio. As a High Priestess within the coven as well as a scholar of religion, Nikki Bado is in a unique position to contribute to our understanding of this ceremony and the tradition to which it belongs. Bado's analysis of this coven's initiation ceremony offers an important challenge to the commonly accepted model of "rites of passage." Rather than a single linear event, initiation is deeply embedded within a total process of becoming a Witch in practice and in community with others. Coming to the Edge of the Circle expands our concept of initiation while giving us insight into one coven's practice of Wicca. An important addition to Ritual Studies, it also introduces readers to the contemporary nature religion variously called Wicca, Witchcraft, the Old Religion, or the Craft.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Initiation is one of the most mysterious and documented traditional practices of Witchcraft. What is not well known is that behind the scripted initiations are the symbols of transformation encapsulated in the twenty-two tarot trumps of the Major Arcana. Initiations follow the literary cycle of the hero and the heroine and, combined with the trumps, produce a system of magic used to trigger and wield the powers of psychic transformation. Additionally, this book analyzes the traditional scripted initiations of Witchcraft, their relationship to Masonic initiations, and produces new practices like the periodic dedication rite, the third-degree ordeal, self-initiation of the four elements, the rumored fourth and fifth degrees, and the initiation mysteries of a Witchcraft inner order. Most importantly, this book gives the reader the ability to direct and shape their own inner cycles of transformation so that they might master the art of inner change for themselves and their students. The purpose of directing and shaping inner change is to assist in achieving a sustainable mind-state of conscious ascension. The rituals and practices in this book give the reader, for the first time, the ability to design, write, perform, and realize the powers of psychic transformation and initiation.

Book excerpt: Neither power nor morality but both. Moral power is what Sukuma farmers in Tanzania in times of crisis attribute to an unknown figure they call their witch. A universal process is involved, as much bodily as social, which obstructs the patient's recovery. Healers turn the table on the witch through rituals showing that the community and the ancestral spirits side with the victim. In contrast to biomedicine, their magic and divination introduce moral values that assess the state of the system and that remove the obstacles to what is taken as key: self-healing. The implied 'sensory shifts' and therapeutic effectiveness have largely eluded the literature on witchcraft. This book shows how to comprehend culture other than through the prism of identity politics. It offers a framework to comprehend the rise of witch killings and human sacrifice, just as ritual initiation disappears.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Witchcraft for Tomorrow answers many frequently asked questions about witchcraft including: 'How can I find a witches' coven?' and 'How can I become a witch?' Doreen Valiente tells you what the old religion of witchcraft has to offer the new age of Aquarius; how the age-old Craft of the Wise can be practised in the modern world; how to initiate yourself as a witch and found your own coven. The author, who was the leading figure in the establishment of the modern Wiccan movement, includes a new Book of Shadows (the witches' handbook of rituals and instructions) based upon ancient magical tradition but geared to the age of the future. There are witch songs, spells, incantations and practical advice on how to run a coven and how to acquire your own collection of magical implements; as well as methods of divination and other witch lore. The author shows how the oral traditions of witchcraft throw light not only upon the origins of the present-day witch cult and the activities of the witch leader George Pickingill and his covens, but also upon the mystery of the founding of the famous magical order, the Golden Dawn. Also discussed is the relationship between the witchcraft of Britain and Europe and the magical belief of the Far East. Do both traditions hark back to the legendary city of Shamballah and to the shamanistic practices of Asia? And why do the secret circles of the witches resemble those of the Tantric sex-magic of India?
