SynopsisCunningham's classic introduction to Wicca is about how to live life magically, spiritually, and wholly attuned with nature. It is a book of sense and common sense, not only about magick, but about religion and one of the most critical issues of today: how to achieve the much needed and wholesome relationship with our Earth. Cunningham presents Wicca as it is today: a gentle, Earth-oriented religion dedicated to the Goddess and God. Wicca also includes Scott Cunningham's own Book of Shadows and updated appendices of periodicals and occult suppliers.

Good if you have the time
Although Mr. Cunningham does a good job in identifying rituals and things to do for them, I found this a little too wordy for me. Although I have been interested in Wicca for many years there are a great many things one most do that, quite frankly, I don't have time or the resources to perform them.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

The Guide I Needed
An uncomplicated book about what some deem to be a complicated subject. I'm so grateful for this book from an extraordinary human being. This book in it's simplicity clearly answered many questions for me about my solitary path. I now own several of Scott Cunningham's books. In his short life he was able to publish something like 40 books on this subject. He was a pioneer for sure. Thank you Scott :)Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Exactly what I was looking for.
It is very informative and covers a wide variety of subjects. He gives his opinions but always reminds the reader that it's not the only way and to make it your own and that makes it a very good guide for any new Wiccan.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New
