Starhawk

HarperOne, 1999

If you think you want to be a witch, read this book.
The Spiral Dance is the first book I would recommend for anyone who wants to work with women in ritual space with earth centered spirituality. Her Starhawk's writing is clear, specific and practical. She has revised her classic feminist work to include working with men and children in sacred space. The Spiral Dance is a must-read for pagans, witches, or other folks who want to know how to ...

Truth or Dare: Encounters with Power, Authority, and Mystery

Starhawk

HarperOne, 1989

A great book for group work, and intermediate witches
I wouldn't recommend this book as a manual for absolute beginners - that's what her other book, The Spiral Dance, was for. However, if you are somewhat well-versed in the practice of the Craft, and are looking for ideas for group work, this is a fabulous book. Written by a master of coven work, Truth or Dare takes bold, assertive steps in showing the reader how to form consciousness-raising ...

Starhawk, Hilary Valentine

HarperOne, 2001

A fantastic journey through the recesses of your mind...
This book is sometimes painful, often challenging, and occasionally glorious. My Reclaiming community based an elements course around this book, and we based each class on the exploration of an element, as outlined in 12 Wild Swans. Starhawk artfully guides the reader through Self, gently unearthing those secret desires and wicked vows we make to ourselves. The book explains each step of the ...

The Fifth Sacred Thing
In "The Fifth Sacred Thing" enormously popular Pagan author, Starhawk explores two possible futures. San Francisco is an oasis of spirituality, peace, and ecology, where poverty and hatred are non-existent. Southern California , by contrast is a nightmare society, with an oppression state religion where women are sold as property, children are bred for sex, and residents must steal water to ...

Starhawk, Diane Baker, ...

Bantam, 2000

We use this book often
This is one of my all time favorite books. It has wonderful ideas for crafts, rituals, recipes and stories to share with your children. We use this book at all the 8 sabbats, and there are quite a few recipes we use even more often. I found that there is also a CD with all the songs on it too. Which is a great addition to this book. :) One thing we love to do, the idea from this book, is to ...

Starhawk Speaks
Here is a new format for our readers that provides quality material at a reasonable price for those who prefer a format other than written word. Sounds True has a wonderful package here. A 4 CD set that contains Starhawk's book "Earth Magic". The book is actually spoken by Starhawk and is nicely boxed and presented. First, the quality of the CDs themselves. We have nice overall audio ...

Starhawk, M. Macha Nightmare

HarperOne, 1997

For the Serious Pagan Clergy!
With all we do as Pagan Clergy, we tend to forget we have a responsibility to help in the transition process. This book gives us means and ways of being True Clergy in a tough time for those we work with as well as ourselves. I highly recommend this book. Tough subject matter? Yes it is. Want to be taken as a serious clergy member as other groups are? Then read this book and do the work. ...

Starhawk

HarperOne, 2005

Caroline Tully review
If you are looking for something to read that will change your life you cannot go past Starhawk's latest book "The Earth Path" which is her best so far. Whereas her previous book "Webs of Power" was about explaining the international global justice movement and what it is fighting for, in this new book Starhawk focuses on the local intimate landscape and gets down and dirty with permaculture. ...

Dreaming the Dark : Magic, Sex, and Politics

11 reviews
Starhawk

Beacon Press, 1997

Essential Reading
The writing skillfully integrates annecdotes with philosophy and there are exercises useful to any group of pagans. For Starhawk, Witchcraft and environmentalism and activism and gender awareness are natural companions; what Witch doesn't care about the earth and nature? What Witch would not know the power of the individual and of people together? How can anyone who honors the Goddess not strive ...

2 reviews
Starhawk

Sounds True, 2003

Ah, if only it were a little longer!
I read this in an unabridged CD format. Starhawk narrates the audiobook in a calm, clear voice starting with a brief history of Wicca and outlining its structure, belief system, holidays, the importance of the moon cycles, the God and Goddess concept, the cycles of life and nature, and then briefly describes the ritual and tools a witch uses. She then moves along to active practice leading the ...

I love the book-It helps!
I'm a young one and I have the book it is great. My grandmother is Native American and she thinks we need to remember the magic of our people and not live in the anger and hate of the old days. We almost lost the spirit of our people and we need books like this to remember. I find the book easy to read and great to learn from. It make my Granny smile. Wolf Mooondance is a good writer.

Walking to Mercury

Starhawk

Bantam, 1998

A wonderful, wonderful book
The Spiral Dance has to be one of the inspirational books of the last century, and Dreaming the Dark continued with the same evocative quality. Then I read The Fifth Sacred Thing and decided that, interesting though it was, it didn't delineate Starhawk as a gifted novelist. How wrong could I be! Walking to Mercury is one of the most lyrical yet gripping books I've ever read. I found it impossible ...

Exploring The Pagan Path: Wisdom From The Elders

5 reviews

New Page Books, 2005

A fine collection of articles on Paganism
This collection of articles is a great introduction to Paganism and it has plenty of good advice for Pagans. It includes some useful references and a glossary. The book starts with an excellent introduction by Oz. We are told that Pagans accept no dogma, authority, or hierarchy in spirituality, and don't proselytize. And we see that Pagans show respect for the animate, the inanimate, and ...

Sterling, 1995

The book and th e author changed my life!
I think as we humans look we are also full of fear. We always listen to each other and not the true spirit. I have learned from my full blood granny that we have to listen to our spirit and not people. As an author Wolf Moondance shows she listens to the spirit. We as humans want some one to show us the way and give us the answers. We have to be open to your spirit and hear the voice of our ...

New Society Publishers, 2002

The Goddess in the streets
With all the horrors of the present age, I often find it difficult to keep from sinking in hopeless despair. Starhawk's "Webs of Power" is a beautifully created jewel of hope in the mire. This is not a think positive thoughts and love everyone new age panacea, but rather a collection of essays documenting the vision and the struggle. It is uplifting to know that there are others out there ...
