This indispensable reference work provides both a historical and cultural foundation for modern Wicca and Witchcraft, and is the first to be written by a Craft Elder. It presents Wicca/Witchcraft as a spiritual path, connecting religious concepts and spirituality to both a historical background and modern practice.

Along with a storehouse of information on European folklore and Western Occultism as related to modern Wicca and Witchcraft, you will find entries that are relevant to any culturally based path or Tradition. Use this book to research any aspect of the Craft, including:

Ø Theology—pantheons, Wiccan Rede, Three-Fold Law

Ø History—Craft roots and influence

Ø Places—historical and sacred sites

Ø Verses, rites and invocation

Ø Ritual objects and tools

Ø Influential practitioners—past and present

The Encyclopedia of Wicca & Witchcraft also contains terminology; book references; Craft web sites, organizations and magazines; magickal alphabets, runes, correspondences, symbols; and 300 illustrations. It is the first book of its kind to present Wicca and Witchcraft from the perspective of those who actually practice it.
