A detailed guide to the darker elements of witchcraft and magic presented in a down-to-earth fashion that encourages growth and self-reflection

Shadow magick occupies a critical role in the rich history of witchcraft, and it continues to draw strong interest from contemporary practitioners despite the limited information that is available. This book explores misunderstood topics such as the ethical use of animal parts and bones, blood magick, dark moon energy, hexing, scrying, sex magick, dark deities, graveyard dirt, spells to assist the crossing of a dying loved one, and much more. With a strong focus on ethics, author Kate Freuler provides much-needed information and hands-on techniques to help you strengthen your witchcraft practice, connect to nature, protect yourself (and your kith and kin), and know yourself in a deep way.

KATE FREULER (Toronto, Ontario) has practiced witchcraft for over twenty-five years, and she writes a column for Patheos Pagan called Omens and Oracles. She has also written for Llewellyn s Magical Almanac, Sabbats Almanac, and Spell-A-Day Almanac. Kate owns and operates an online store called White Moon Witchcraft. www.WhiteMoonWitchcraft.com
