Traditional Wicca
Author: Thorn Mooney
Publisher: Llewellyn Worldwide
ISBN: 0738755206
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 199
Book Description
A Down-to-Earth Guide to Traditional Wicca While there are many powerful variations of contemporary Witchcraft, traditional Wicca offers unique experiences for those who seek it out. This book explores structured, coven-based styles of Wicca, in which the practitioners typically trace initiatory lineages back to Wicca's early founders. Discussing covens, initiations, lineages, practices, ethics, and more, Traditional Wicca shares tips and ideas on how to get the most from this profound approach to Witchcraft. Discover how to recognize healthy, reputable covens. Learn how to navigate the process of asking for training and succeeding in an outer court. Explore the spiritual strength of lineages, hierarchies, and initiation. This book also includes contributions from several practitioners, providing valuable first-person perspectives on what it's like to be on the traditional Wiccan path. Praise : "Like the bristles of a besom, Thorn Mooney's Traditional Wicca sweeps through the subject of Witchcraft removing the dust and dirt of ignorance and prejudice to reveal the true heart of Wicca. Thorn writes with obvious sincerity, with feeling, and from experience. Her book covers everything from defining Witchcraft, through the workings of a coven, to actual initiation and beyond. She warns that Wicca is not for everyone and—I am personally delighted to see—includes a chapter on recognizing 'Red Flags' when first contacting others...especially those who might claim to be more than they actually are. This book is the quintessential guide for the true, sincere seeker."—Raymond Buckland, author of Buckland's Complete Book of Witchcraft "Traditional Wicca is a unique and important book. It's amazing to me that in over 70 years of publishing on the subject of Wicca, nothing like this book has ever been written! I'm kind of jealous I didn't think to write it myself. The chapter on initiation is, by itself, worth the cover price. If you want to understand what people mean by 'traditional Wicca,' whether or not you're seeking it, this is the one book you must read."—Deborah Lipp, Wiccan high priestess and author of Merry Meet Again "Traditional Wicca is a topic that few actually understand despite its long and distinguished history. With passion and skill, Thorn delivers a book that many familiar with Wicca will wish they had had when they were studying it, and those who find themselves on the path for the first time will rejoice at having found. Whether you intend to seek initiation or not, this book is full of valuable gems that will enhance any practice at any level. Traditional Wicca is an all-inclusive tour through the history, practices, and lore of traditional Wicca that weaves voices from all over the tradition and challenges everything you think you know about it."—Devin Hunter, author of The Witch's Book of Power "A masterful gem of insight and wisdom,Traditional Wicca reveals the time-honored practices of initiatory Wicca, thought all but lost by many, but hidden like so many occult secrets in plain sight. Drawing a clear and respectful distinction between eclectic Wicca and its older more traditional sibling, Thorn Mooney takes us on a personal journey exploring the powers and the pitfalls of the initiatory inner court, revealing the persistence of a thriving and dynamic Craft that is at once orthopraxic and changing, traditional and experimental. With practical advice for the seeker, peppered with personal anecdotes from several practitioners and initiates alike, this book is a much-needed map...Highly recommended."—Storm Faerywolf, author of Betwixt and Between

Pages : 174
Book Description
I invite you to discover the truth about the ancient and beloved practice of Witchcraft. As I offer my many years of experience and knowledge, let us discover the ancient origins of Witchcraft as we become familiar with its modern manifestations. It is my goal to offer you a well-rounded perspective of what Witches believe. I want to demonstrate to you how they practice, and how you too can begin constructing and walking your unique path as a Witch. Millions have found themselves drawn to the nature-based religious and spiritual practices of Wicca and Witchcraft. In the United States, Witchcraft, Wicca, and Neopaganism are deemed one of the fastest growing religious and spiritual affiliations. This is for a good reason, Wicca and Witchcraft are flexible allowing the practitioner to create and practice a theology that is uniquely suited to his or her needs and core values. However, this profound growth has its setbacks. Locating trustworthy information and educational materials can prove challenging to find. New practitioners and seekers who look to books and the internet, soon discover that Witchcraft has a wide range of beliefs, practices, and opinions. This can make defining Witchcraft difficult, as no single doctrine dictates what Witches believe or how they should practice. As you read and discover the intricacies of Witchcraft, you will also learn the value of finding authentic and credible teachers. Experienced teachers must express the knowledge we gain as we help illuminate some of the falsehoods generated by the fast rise of Witchcraft and Wicca. Within this book, you are taken through a non-denominational version of the pre-Christian faith known as Witchcraft. We will take a look the origins of Witchcraft and how this "Old Religion" manifests today. This book will cover the following subjects, helping to gain understanding:* What makes someone a Witch* The subtle differences between Witchcraft and Wicca* Explore ethical and moral perspectives* How to discover and use your strengths* How to deal with overwhelm* Creating and maintaining sacred space* How magick works* How to develop spells & rituals for your unique path* Become the architect of your magickal journey& MORE!Witchcraft is a journey. It is an adventure! Take your time and enjoy the experience.
