DISCOVERING THE MAGICK OF ANIMISTIC WITCHCRAFT
Rewild Your Soul and Deepen Your Relationship with Our Interconnected World
Discover an exciting approach to witchcraft that teaches you how to see and work with the life in all things, from animals and plants to rocks, rivers, and beyond. Nathan M. Hall provides an in-depth and thoughtful exploration of animism, guiding you down the path of the moonlit hedge with more than thirty exercises that support the needs of your wild soul.
This book builds your magickal foundation through journeying and trancework, helping you connect with natural energies and patterns of the earth. You’ll meet and partner with spirits of the land, perform meditations and spells that strengthen your commitment to the craft, and learn how to cross the hedge (enter the spirit world) to participate in the Witches' Sabbat. By adopting this magickal worldview, you can create balance within yourself and empower your work as a witch.

THRIFTY WITCHERY - MAGICK FOR THE PENNY-PINCHING PRACTITIONER

Authors Vincent Higginbotham and Martha Kirby Capo discuss their latest book - THRIFTY WITCHERY - MAGICK FOR THE PENNY-PINCHING PRACTITIONER
Learn the secrets to practicing magick on a budget with this empowering guide. Featuring more than forty exercises and practices, Thrifty Witchery shows that intuition, wisdom, and intention are more important to your magick than expensive trinkets. With these three skills, you can turn everything you touch into a magickal tool.
Vincent Higginbotham and Martha Kirby Capo teach you how to see the world with a witch's eyes and mind. Discover how to safely forage for supplies, find specific items you know you need, and fabricate separate components into something new and full of magickal intention. 
Vincent Higgenbotham is the author of How Witchcraft Saved My Life and coauthor of Thrifty Witchery. Mostly self-taught, Vini is not initiated in any traditional form or witchcraft practice. He follows his gut in all things magic but spends plenty of time researching to be sure his intuition is informed by wisdom before setting his intentions. It is Vini's goal to empower others the way he wishes he had been empowered in his early years. He has a dedicated practice with the goddess Hekate and lives in the South East with his husband, youngest son, and dogs.
Martha Kirby Capo (Miami, FL) is the editor of The Agora on Patheos Pagan and a member of Circle Sanctuary and Covenant of the Goddess (CoG). She has presented at Pagan Pride events, Mystic South, and Florida Pagan Gathering, and she can be heard on KPPR Pure Pagan Radio.

Daniela Simina - A Fairy Path: The Memoir of a Young Fairy Seer in Training

Daniela Simina joins me to discuss her book - A Fairy Path: The Memoir of a Young Fairy Seer in Training
An autobiographical work offering unique insights into the practice of fairy ritual healers of Romania, A Fairy Path: The Memoir of a Young Fairy Seer in Training follows a very young Daniela, whose rebellious streak and decision to pursue the path of fairy seership clash against societal norms and restrictions imposed by a dictatorial political regime. Filled with fairy occurrences, charms, spells, and ritual work directly experienced by the author, A Fairy Path does more than just tell a story: It provides material that substantiates the reality of fairy phenomena in modern times while offering those who follow a fairy-based spiritual path resources for study and practice.
