Hedgewith - A Guide to Solitary Witchcraft: Rae Beth
[Book Blurb]
Hedge Witch, now available in paperback, is a modern guide to the ancient path of the village wisewoman or wiseman.
Written in the form of letters from an experienced witch to her two apprentices, solitary witchcraft is offered,
not as a substitute for coven worship, but as a fulfilling lifestyle in its own right. Rae Beth explains the importance
of the Goddess and her consort, the Horned God, as sources of spiritual strength and worship. The author extols the
feminine principles of healing and regeneration as well as attacking greed and self-interest which jeopardize the planet's
very future.
Rae Beth provides spells for all the key festivals of the witch's calendar; describes the therapeutic powers
of trancework and herbalism and outlines the Pagan approach to finding a partner. Her lyrical letters, accompanied by
delicate pen and ink sketches, bring the reader towards a deeper understanding of the solitary witch's lifestyle and beliefs.
" A wealth of information on natural magic, rural Paganism and the traditional side of the Craft." Prediction.
" A positive must for both the novice and for anyone who has ever wondered what modern witchcraft is all
about." Moonshine.
" This is a book which should grace the bookshelf of every budding occultist." Sirius.
