Spell Crafts : Creating Magical Objects
Handcraft Your Own Powerful Tools for Self-Transformation
Since early times, crafts have been intimately linked with spirituality. When a woman carefully shaped a water jar from the clay she’d gathered from a river bank, she was performing a spiritual practice. When crafts were used to create objects intended for ritual or that symbolized the Divine, the connection between the craftsperson and divinity grew more intense. Today handcrafts can still be more than a pastime—they can be rites of power and honor; a religious ritual. After all, hands were our first magical tools.

Wicca : A Guide for the Solitary Practitioner
Here is a positive, practical introduction to the religion of Wicca. Cunningham presents Wicca as it is today—a gentle, Earth-oriented religion dedicated to the Goddess and God. This book fulfills a need for a practical guide to solitary Wicca—a need which no previous book has fulfilled.
Wicca is a book of life, and how to live magically spiritually, and wholly attuned with Nature. It is a book of sense and common sense, not only about Magic, but about religion and one of the most critical issues of today: how to achieve the much needed and wholesome relationship with our Earth.
Wicca is a positive, practical introduction to the religion of Wicca, designed so that any interested person can learn to practice the religion alone, anywhere in the world. It presents Wicca honestly and clearly, without the pseudo-history that permeates other books. It shows that Wicca is a vital, satisfying part of twentieth century life.
The vast majority of Wiccan books are geared toward group practice. Tales of coven meetings and magical group dynamics abound in such works. The problem is that most persons desiring to learn this religion don’t share such interests with others. They may not know of another Wiccan within three hundred miles. Thus, when they read other books, they’re either coerced into believing that they can’t be Wiccan alone—or are forced to adapt published rituals for solitary use. Also, many Wiccan books have been written from limited viewpoints, the authors claiming that their one particular form of Wicca is the only way. Wicca: A Guide for the Solitary Practitioner breaks these conventions. It presents the theory and practice of Wicca from an individual’s perspective. The section on the Standing Stones Book of Shadows (printed in this book in full) contains solitary rituals for the Esbats and Sabbats.
This book, based on the author’s nearly two decades of Wiccan practice, presents an eclectic picture of various aspects of this religion. Exercises designed to develop magical proficiency, a self-dedication ritual, herb, crystal and rune magic, recipes for Sabbat feasts, are included in this excellent book.
