    Many of us still carry with us superstitions, a belief that a specific action or object can positively influence the outcome of certain events. You might not realize it, but superstitions stem from the underlying properties of the energy that makes up our Universe. This energy is something that ancient civilizations were well aware of, but has seemingly been lost in today's technologically-driven world. For thousands of years, our ancestors believed that the Elements — Earth, Air, Fire, and Water — were the building blocks of the Universe, and their inherent properties and energies could be directed to manifest a particular outcome. In other words, the Elements are an integral component of Witchcraft and Magic, as practiced by some of the most revered members of ancient civilizations.Wicca is a religion that draws from the belief systems of these ancient civilizations, putting it in a modern context. Wiccans have a close relationship with the natural world, the cycles of life, and the magical properties of the Universe — just as our ancestors did. Foundations for Practicing Witchcraft and Magic One intriguing aspect that draws people towards Wicca is the concept of Witchcraft and Magic and the idea that we can positively impact our circumstances. However, Wicca has no sacred text; with no place to learn about the Wiccan religion and its many fascinating components, many people are put off.With no central source, Wiccans are responsible for piecing together different fragments of Wicca for themselves, in order to get a clear picture of what the religion means to them.As one of the more intangible aspects of Wicca, good information relating to Magic and Witchcraft are even more difficult to find. As a result, many Wiccans who wish to start practicing Witchcraft simply do not know where to start and will give up on the idea.Wicca Elemental Magic was created with these readers in mind — suitable for beginners, but equally informative for more seasoned Wicca Witches alike.By learning about the hidden properties of the Elements — the building blocks of the entire Universe — Witches are able to manifest positive changes for themselves and others, as well as fostering a deeper spiritual connection to the natural world. This, in a nutshell, is what magic is. Learn about the Elements, Witchcraft, and Magic Spells You will learn about how ancient civilizations understood the Elements, as well as modern observations of their properties.You'll be introduced to the four Elements and understand their intricate relationships, as well as how they influence your own personality.Finally, you will learn the concepts of Witchcraft and Magic, teaching you how to perform simple Wiccan rituals including setting up your altar, casting the circle, and calling the quarters — there are also a number of simple magic spells and charms for you to perform yourself, with each one using the energies of a particular Element.In other words, Wicca Elemental Magic will give you a deeper understanding of how and why we practice Witchcraft and Magic.

    The Triumph of the Moon is the first full-scale study of the only religion England has ever given the world--modern pagan witchcraft, otherwise known as wicca. Meticulously researched, it provides a thorough account of an ancient religion that has spread from English shores across four continents. For centuries, pagan witchcraft has been linked with chilling images of blood rituals, ghostlike druids, and even human sacrifices. But while Robert Hutton explores this dark side of witchery, he stresses the positive, reminding us that devotion to art, the natural world, femininity, and the classical deities are also central to the practice of wicca. Indeed, the author shows how leading figures in English literature--W.B. Yeats, D.H. Lawrence, and Robert Graves, just to name a few--celebrated these positive aspects of the religion in their work, thereby softening the public perception of witchcraft in Victorian England. From cunning village folk to freemasons and from high magic to the black arts, Hutton chronicles the fascinating process by which actual wiccan practices evolved into what is now a viable modern religion. He also presents compelling biographies of wicca's principal figures, such as Gerald Gardner, who was inducted into a witch coven at the age of 53, and recorded many clandestine rituals and beliefs. Ronald Hutton is known for his colorful, provocative, and always thoroughly researched studies on original subjects. This work is no exception. It will appeal to anyone interested in witchcraft, paganism and alternative religions.
