Book of Shadows: A Modern
Womans Journey into the Wisdom of
Witchcraft and the Magic of the
Goddess by Phyllis Curott
Perfect Book For Newbies And Experienced Craftpeople
Since Phyllis Currot first published Book of Shadows, the story of her
spiritual journey and initiation as a High Priestess in the Wiccan
community, Witchcraft has captured Americas imagination as a theme for
fiction, television shows, and films. Now Americas highest-profile Witch
returns to dispel more myths and misrepresentations of her faith, and to
share a practical guide to the beautiful spiritual rituals and philosophies
behind Wiccan tradition.
Rich with enchanting stories from Currots own experiences and detailed
advice for creating potions, working with Nature, and finding the Divine
within, Witch Crafting is much more than just another superficial recipe
book. Curotts unique guidebook integrates the inspiration of religious
wisdom with sound, practical information. Witch Crafting reveals how to:
incorporate Wiccan practices into your daily life; master the secret arts of
effective spell casting; create sacred space and personal rituals; perform
divinations for insight and success; and tap the magical power of altered
states, such as dreaming meditation, prayer, and trance.
Perfect for beginners or seasoned practitioners, Witch Crafting is the ideal
handbook for anyone seeking to unlock the divine power that makes real
magic happen, and to experience the power and gifts of the universe more
fully.
Personal Review: Book of Shadows: A Modern Womans
Journey into the Wisdom of Witchcraft and the Magic of the
Goddess by Phyllis Curott
Although I have been reading and studying the craft for 10 years, I wish I
had found this book early on my path. Curott's own feelings as she
ventured into Wicca reflected my own and I am sure many others as well.
While I experienced the whole guilt factor of leaving Christianity, Curott just
seemed to wrestle with the whole "this feels wierd doing ritual factor." What
I loved about this book was that it was simply a non-threatening essay
style read-like-a-novel book, so if someone just starting out was curious
but did not want to committ to learning ritual, correspondence, Sabbats
and Esbats, she could read this book and get a true insight while still
picking up a few important facts she could recognize later in deeper study.
I recommend this book to any newbie especially. Read it and then decide if
you are truly ready to convert to Wicca and dedicate your life to the ways
of the Wise and the Goddesses. For the experienced Witch or Wiccan, this
book will remind you of your own feelings of the awe and wonder you felt
when first starting out. Plus it has some good ritual ideas you can pick up,
and read about them as they are performed, not just like a recipe.
