Sinossi
La stregoneria, i rituali pagani legati alle antiche arti magiche e alla Wicca, contrariamente a quanto si crede, sono perfettamente al passo con i tempi, dal momento che si occupano di argomenti che, al giorno d'oggi, sono di stretta attualità: il rispetto per l'ambiente, la parità di genere, la lotta contro il pregiudizio. Inoltre, incoraggiano i neofiti a seguire a scoprire e a potenziare i loro talenti naturali, ad assumersi le loro responsabilità e a seguire la loro vocazione. In generale, le streghe cercano di migliorare se stesse e vivere in armonia con l'universo. Questo manuale offre tutti gli strumenti utilizzabili a tal fine.

Short Review: Any book that cites "The Secret" in a positive manner is not a book you should waste your time on. Long Review: While The Modern Guide to Witchcraft offers a lot of overviews of basic magical areas that some may find useful, I have a really hard time giving any credit to a book that st Leggi tutto
I will not support this book or this Author. I didn't even get into the book before she actually compared witch persecution to racism! I was disgusted. I do not think she takes witches of color serious and is very bigoted in that regard. I can't believe in this day and age she thought it would be OK Leggi tutto
It's Just Okay This is a very Wicca-centric book, despite the title. The cover is beautiful and that's actually what compelled me purchase it. I wish the author had cited references. Two corrections: Hedge Witchery is actually more akin to Shamanism as the witch "walks the hedge" between our world an Leggi tutto
As I said in one of my reading status: this does have some helpful info, but there are also a lot of concepts and/or history bits thrown around without being properly sourced. Some of the practices also seem wasteful. I also noticed that, overall, there seems to be a lot of focus on money? Which is.. Leggi tutto
At least for the time being, you'll have to live with being constantly offended by the ignorance of people who would never think of insulting blacks, Jews or other folks so outrageously as they do witches. (page 16 - 17) I should've known by just that one quote that this book would be a MESS.
Perfect for beginner witches!
Alright for a beginner who's new to the craft, like I am. But the fact that the author doesn't recognize India as part of Asia had me rolling. (Sis, that's embarrassing)
Summer 2020 (Cozy Book Club); This was ... not great. That might be the only way I can put it. I was instantly put off by the singular references to Black people and Muslims in the early chapters, each once and not in great light. I was very unhappy to see the authors' only answer to people not liki Leggi tutto
Not sure what these bad reviews are for. This is not so much a spell book as a history of neopaganism and its current place in the world. The author is not trying to really teach you anything as much as encourage you to learn. She does offer ritual guidance but it is not the major part of the book.
