In this new and expanded edition, including 180 individual incantations rooted in the lore and age-old texts of previous centuries, The Witch's Art of Incantation reveals the often-overlooked diversity of the incantatory arts: charms that beckon, charms that command, charms that poison, charms that bless and heal, charms that remember, charms that terrify, charms that praise and exalt. Because each charm is accompanied by an approximate date, region, and associated source text, student witches will sharpen their knowledge of folkloric texts while engaging with these rich and potent spells. The practical methods provided in the introduction, though seemingly simple, outline rarely discussed methods of incantation, including the construction of the magical listener and pairings with sympathetic and contagious ritual acts. New to this edition is a chapter devoted to heretical psalmistry as a branch of the witch's incantatory arts, including both a collection of practical psalms and a complete index of the magical uses of the psalms. Roger J. Horne is a writer, folk witch, and modern animist. His spiritual practice is informed by his ancestral currents of Scottish cunning craft and Appalachian herb-doctoring. He is the author of Folk Witchcraft, The Witch's Devil, and other works. Through his writing, Horne seeks to help other witches rediscover the living traditions of folk craft.

La liturgia afirma que Oshún y Yemayá fueron reinas poderosas, amantes de los orishas e incluso madre de varios de estos. Algunos pataki sostienen que del incesto entre Orungán y su madre Yemayá nacieron los dieciséis orishas, y dentro de estos estaba Oshún. Otros pasajes cuentan que Oshún nació de la relación marital establecida entre Obatalá y Yemú, como se considera a la primera Yemayá. Aunque la gran mayoría de las historias prefieren contemplarlas como hermanas inseparables, que por el amor que se manifiestan continuamente se ayudan, se protegen y se cuidan una a la otra.

In a world filled with instabilities, crises, and chaos, it can sometimes seemimpossible to maintain your peace. But in these despairing times, God will sendhis servants as a beacon of hope, and anoint them to deliver a message thatdestroys bondages and removes burdens from the lives of His people. I believethat Dr. Tobe Momah is one of those servants, and Gracing Favor is that message.This powerful message is conveyed in the book of Esther-a dramatic accountof God's special purpose for His people, His timeless love, the unsurpassed favorHis presence brings, and the courage and responsibility that comes along with it.Esther-though a Jewish woman in a foreign land-became the Queen of Persiabecause of God's gracing favor (Esther 2:17).As you read this book, you will learn that the anointing of God may bring you tothe palace, but it is His grace and favor that will sustain you upon arriving there.The ascendancy of Haman, the king's official, was never a threat to Esther, herUncle (Mordecai), or their Jewish nation, because God had already determinedto take what the enemy meant for evil and work it together for their good. Andwhen God promotes, no Haman can demote!- Jennifer R. Biard,Senior Pastor, Jackson Revival Center,Jackson, MS 39212About the bookThere is a realm of favor the last-day Church will enter theprior generations would have only dreamt of. Th at realm is therealm called GRACING FAVOR. It is a two leaved gate thatguarantees the Church will have "For (their) shame...double; andfor confusion they shall rejoice in their portion: (and) thereforein their land they shall possess the double: everlasting joy shall beunto them" (Isaiah 61:7).The latter day Church will taste double for their trouble! In Proverbs 16:15, thewise man said "In the light of the king's countenance is life; and his favor is as acloud of the latter rain." That latter rain cloud is earmarked to surround the lastdays Church (according to James 5:7-9).The signature of the last day Church will be unparalleled favor characterized bya favor to get, and a grace to stand. These ones, like Queen Esther, will go fromnonentity to numero uno of their time. This lifting was, however, a product ofGRACING FAVOR.In Esther 2:17, the Bible says "...the king loved Esther above all the women, andshe obtained grace and favor in his sight more than all the virgins; so that he setthe royal crown upon her head, and made her queen instead of Vashti."

ONE NIGHT IN SALEMTHE HIDDEN HISTORY OF THE AMERICAN WITCHBY TROY TAYLORWitchcraft came to America with the first European settlers. They came here and brought with them their histories and traditions, hopes, dreams, terrors, and fear of their gods. They had fled from home at a time when thousands were being accused, tortured, hanged, and burned for being witches. They came to America for a fresh start - and brought that fear of witches with them.The belief in witches - who carried out the Devil's evil deeds - was as real to the colonists as the constant threat of the Devil himself. They believed that witches caused livestock to sicken and die, crops to fail, and babies to be born dead or deformed. Fear and dread became hysteria when evil came to Salem Village, fueling hostility, distrust, and religious fanaticism that claimed the lives of innocents on the gallows. But Salem was not the end of America's obsession with witchcraft. Join Troy Taylor on a trip back in time as he reveals the hidden history of the American witch! Discover the strange tales of what happened in America in the wake of Salem, from the persecution and murders of accused witches to the conjure folk, Appalachian folk magic, Hexes and Powwowing, Voodoo and Hoodoo, killings, curses, witchcraft manias, and more! This is not another book about Salem, a spell book, or a how-to guide, but a haunted and historic look at how witchcraft came to America and the ways that it continues to thrive today.

"An expansive, transformative, and empowering book [that] shares the history of the witch, her magick, and persecution with reverence and respect . . . You will come to understand the witch and her world in a way that feels personal and inviting." --Gabriela Herstik, author of Bewitching the Elements and Inner Witch Traveling through cities and sites across Italy, France, Germany, Ireland, the United Kingdom, and the United States, Kristen J. Sollée explores the places and people significant to the early modern legacy of the witch. Between the 15th and 17th centuries, a confluence of political, economic, and religious factors ignited a wildfire of witch hysteria in Europe and, later, in parts of America. At the heart of these witch hunts were often dangerous misconceptions about femininity and female sexuality, and women were disproportionately punished as a result. Today, this lineage of oppression remains a vital reference point in the fight for women's rights--and human rights--in the Western world and beyond. By infusing an adventurous first-person narrative with extensive research and moments of imaginative historical fiction, Sollée makes an often-overlooked period of history come alive. Written for armchair travelers and on-the-ground explorers alike, Witch Huntnot only uncovers the horrors of history but also reveals how the archetype of the witch has been rehabilitated. For witches are not just haunting figures of the past; the witch is also a liberatory icon and identity of the present. In this paperback edition, the author has included a new afterword and updated the travel resources section.

Gold Winner, Biographical Books, COVR Visionary Awards A moving portrait of the iconic figure who led the way in establishing Wicca in North America--with remembrances of his life by his sister, Christine Cunningham Ashworth, and appreciations written by key figures in today's world of witchcraft, magic, tarot, and astrology. The iconic and renowned bestselling author Scott Cunningham (1956-1993) played a significant role in establishing Wicca in North America. His pioneering book Wicca: A Guide for the Solitary Practitioner radically altered the practice of Wicca, enabling practitioners to self-initiate. Scott's books, especially his encyclopedias, remain popular today, years after his death. In recent years, Scott has also emerged as a celebrated queer icon, especially in the witchcraft world. Although so many people have come to Wicca and Paganism through his books, little is actually known about Scott Cunningham as a person. His little sister, Christine Cunningham Ashworth, seeks to remedy that. Christine grew up with him, laughed with him, learned with him, fought with him, and shared joys and sorrows. She writes about their childhood, gives a peek into their parents' lives, and brings to life what it was like to grow up in the Cunningham household. She explores the trajectory of Scott's magical path and affirms his legacy. Christine shares family photos and lifts the veil from Scott's life.

Discover the Magic of Nature's Divine IntelligenceDo you feel drawn to nature in a way you can't quite explain? Is there some part of you that only feels "at home" in the great outdoors? Do your souvenirs from vacations tend to be rocks and seashells rather than tee-shirts and keychains? Are you interested in witchcraft and magic? If you've answered "yes" to more than one of these questions, then green witchcraft may very well be for you.Green witchcraft has emerged as a modern form of an ancient spirituality, and its increasing popularity suggests that more and more people are seeking a new pathway back to living in harmony with the Earth. A revival of ancient approaches to magic, healing, and divine connection adapted for modern times, green witchcraft is not a religion, or even a formal path of witchcraft. In fact, there are as many possible descriptions of this path as the number of people who call themselves green witches.This introductory guide from best-selling author Lisa Chamberlain is intended as a starting-off point in your exploration of the green path. Green Witchcraft for Beginners provides an orientation to the core aspects of the practice. Lisa outlines "green" philosophy, including living in balance with the needs of the Earth, how divine intelligence is expressed through nature in all of its manifestations, and the benefits of co-creating with this intelligence for a more harmonious life. The book then dives into the role of the elements, the energies of the seasons, the magic of the lunar phases, and the ongoing cycles of life, death, and rebirth that keep all of existence going.There's also plenty of practical, hands-on content, with exercises and advice for grounding and balancing your energy; receiving intuitive messages, signs and signals from nature; working with your shadow; and establishing energetically balanced sacred space.Of course, as with any quality book on this topic, there's also plenty of information about plants-in the wild, in the garden, and in the house-as well as various spells, rituals, recipes, and ideas for incorporating nature in your practice.Spells, Recipes, and Magical Inspirations for the Green Witch The central focus of green witchcraft is on working with the magical energetic properties of everything that grows in the ground-trees, herbs, flowers, and other plants. These energies can be used in healing, divination, and other magic. Green witches also work with other aspects of nature, including crystals and stones, fossils and feathers, sand and seashells, and sacred outdoor space in general, wherever they find it.Whether you're new to witchcraft and magic, or a more experienced witch looking to branch out, you'll find plenty of new ideas and inspiration for your practice. Here are just a few of the practical topics covered in Green Witchcraft for Beginners:The elements, green magic, and spiritual alchemySeasonal spells and ritualsMagical herbs and flowers for pots, planters, and garden bedsWorking with herbs, flowers, and treesMagical gardening tipsGardening with the moonCrystals for home and gardenCorrespondence tables for magical herbs, flowers, crystals, oils, and more By the end of this book, you'll have a solid foundation in the core elements of green witchcraft, and, hopefully, the desire to explore the path further.
