Synopsis

Witch Crafting is the eagerly awaited follow-up to Phyllis Curott's magical memoir, Book of Shadows. Wiccan high priestess Curott provides her growing readership with a unique and important guide to the spiritual principles and practices of Wicca.

Witch Crafting is an inspiring guidebook on how to live an empowered, divinely guided, magical life. Written in a conversational, anecdotal style, the author distils the essence of this ancient yet thoroughly modern spirituality into simple, powerful precepts, providing an engaging system of practices that readers can use in their daily lives. And in the many stories and personal examples that fill this book, readers will recognise their own struggles and accomplishments, as they master key Wiccan tenets and techniques.

For the first time, Curott explains how magic actually works. Not only will readers learn to use techniques, rituals, spellcasting, potions, divinations, herbs, oils and other tools, they will learn why witches use these various items, and how they work. Each Chapter focuses on an individual aspect of divine magic, and includes a wide variety of innovative techniques, exercises, and rituals. Witch Crafting is adaptable and flexible, so each reader can maximise their use of the book.
