Queering Your Craft: Witchcraft from the Margins


Cassandra Snow - 2020
    Through creative and unique journal prompts, introspection, rituals, and spells, Snow achieves this beautifully, and herein lays the perfect guide for the queer witch to stand in their power and stand beside others; truly queering our craft with compassion and pride.” --Mat Auryn, author of Psychic Witch: A Metaphysical Guide to Meditation, Magick, and Manifestation Witchcraft has always belonged to the outsiders and outcasts in society, yet so much of the practice enforces and adheres to the same hierarchy we face in the world at large—a hierarchy that isolates and hurts those living beyond society’s binaries and boundaries. While there are books that address magick for resistance and queer myth, until now there has not been one that specifically addresses the practice of queer magick from an LGBTQ+ standpoint. Queering Your Craft combines queer aesthetic and culture (like DIY culture and an emphasis on chosen family over formal covens) with pagan and metaphysical spiritual practice in a way that is commonplace but has not been written about until now. This book covers the personal, the collective, and the political, and how deeply intertwined all three are in a magickal practice for those who are LGBTQ+.In this introduction to witchcraft, Snow presents why/how each concept is important to a queer craft, or how to approach it from a queer mindset. For example, conventional prayer, words, and symbols have always been problematic in a queer universe: How to make them work and still be true to yourself? The bulk of the book is about learning the craft. The latter portion is a grimoire of spells.While accessible to beginning witches, Queering Your Craft provides new and inspiring information for longtime practitioners interested in a pure and personal approach that avoids the baggage of history and stereotype.

WICCA MOON MAGIC: A Wicca Grimoire on lunar spells. How the moon affects your life and how to use its phases in daily lives (BECOME WICCAN Book 4)


Crystal Stones - 2020
    The moon was sued as a source of light and a way to measure time. The moon has been linked with many goddesses and gods. In magic, this heavenly body has been universally associated with love, mystery, passion, fertility, death, rebirth, and the afterlife.  In Wicca, as in many other religions, the moon is the female aspect of Divinity. She embodies the traits and qualities that we often associate with the feminine side of people, the fluidity, the ability to remain eternal while continuously changing, shining softly yet brightly, supporting life, and being full of mystery. This creates a power that has a great influence over Wiccan magic and Wiccan philosophy.  Begin planning the changes you want to make in your own life. You will work magic that has intentions for new projects and ventures, whether personal or business related. Appropriate intentions now will be geared toward attracting the things you really want and finding how to increase the things you already have.

The energy that emanates from the moon interacts with the energy that flows from our own intuition which is feminine, receptive, and magnetic. This is our sixth sense, and it is the most important form of reception that we possess. When you make a concerted effort to connect with the energy of the moon in your own magic practice you will open yourself to be receptive to the energy of the moon. This energy will help to make the needed changes you are looking for in your life. And when you make an effort to get connected with the moon’s energies and work within the cycles of the moon then you will definitely increase the power in your own magic work.
