If you buy just one book on witchcraft...

...Let this be the one you buy.

You may have heard the joke, "What do you call a fourth-degree witch?" The answer: "A Buddhist."

Well, those of us who read and PRACTICE this book can grow for a lifetime in this deeply spiritual tradition of the Craft.

As someone who is lucky enough to be taking classes with the author, I can honestly say that Thorn is the real deal. She practices what she writes; she Knows whereof she speaks; and she has the intelligence, experience, and power I believe we all seek in teachers. (She also doesn't take herself too seriously -- another hallmark of a truly great teacher.)

With this book and personal commitment, anyone can tap into the endlessly meaningful practice Thorn lays out in rich and clearly-explained detail.

Also, there's a DVD that Thorn created that I find very helpful. Unfortunately, (at least at the time of this writing) they don't offer it on Amazon, but if you Google Devotional Dance and Thorn's name, you'll find it....

A spiritual guide to magic

Evolutionary Witchcraft
T. Thorn Coyle
Penguin books
302 pages

I found this book to be very intriguing because it provides a mystical perspective to magic and this perspective is based off a western system of magic as opposed to an Eastern system. It does have some parallels with Eastern mysticism, but is also more practical oriented. While I didn't agree with all of Coyle's points, I did find that I enjoyed her perspectives and approaches and felt like I received a good understanding of what informs her approach to Feri.

I liked her focus on the on the directions and elements associated with each direction as well as the different types of pentalces such as the iron and pearl pentacles. I also found that the exercises were valuable for creating a shift in thinking on how magic could be approached.

I think, in the end, what I most liked is the overall spirituality of behind the concepts. Here is a person who has explored her spirituality and then shared it with others and it really shows in this book. A refreshing change from a lot of the other books out there.

Evolutionary Witchcraft

After learning the basics of circle casting and herbal correspondence, many Witches seek a deeper understanding of magick and inner working. Enter "Evolutionary Witchcraft", a revolutionary guide to expanded humanity and divinity. As stated in the introduction, the goal of "Evolutionary Witchcraft" is to "reach for the stars, dance with the Gods, and make love to the beauty of the earth...[to] expand our capacity to be human and learn what it means to be fey workers-bringing the edges into center and opening up new worlds in the process."

"Evolutionary Witchcraft" is composed of 10 chapters that teach the basics of Feri Witchcraft. The first two chapters introduce basic Feri techniques such as casting a Feri circle and aligning one's triple soul. The proceeding chapters, each focusing on a ceremonial direction, address empowerment, magick, and personal healing. Included are unique Feri practices and concepts such as the Iron Pentacle, the Warrior Ethic, and the Black Heart of Innocence. It is designed to be read once, then studied over a ten month period.

Poetic, powerful, and wise, "Evolutionary Witchcraft" is a book for anyone truly devoted to spiritual progression. Practical exercises, meditations, and rituals allow the reader to tap into innate divinity and manifest magick in everyday life. It is an invitation to experience the beauty and dangers of Feri magick, for as Thorn teaches, anything truly worthwhile is dangerous.

"Evolutionary Witchcraft" is a work of mystery and power. It will push your boundaries and expand your knowledge and perception of the Universe. It is slated to be a classic. Thorn's compassion, experience, and deep commitment as a Priestess can be seen on every page. Read it and be inspired!
