Levannah
has been working as a witch for over thirty years and for most of that time has
lived in Devon, in the south west of England with a wealth of magical
traditions which are still observed in some of the more rural areas, it has
shaped her witchcraft over the years and made it what it is. Magic is something
that should be lived.
Much
of the magic in this book is about apparently simple things, it is the author’ belief
that these things, experienced with all the senses, and done with intent, can
be deep forms of magic and have the most profound effect, and be just as
powerful as complex rituals, if not more so.
Levannah
was fortunate to have two wonderful magical teachers: Hereward Wake, had a lifetime’s
experience of both witchcraft and ritual magic which he shared generously
teaching how to worship the gods in ritual and how to voyage into the spirit
world; how to look and to listen and to work with the hidden senses; when to
act and when to be still and do nothing. The other, Cecil Williamson, who
founded the Museum of Witchcraft, spent his life learning the ways of the
traditional witch. He taught about the old witchcraft that was used in Devon:
spells, charms and a myriad of ways of interacting with the spirit world.
A
WITCHE'S MIRROR - THE ART OF MAKING MAGIC
The
aim is for this book to be used rather like a recipe book to create your own
magic and that it will help you to develop your own ways of working. It
contains simple but profound magical techniques and plenty of practical
projects for you to take and let the spirits guide you to make your own magic.
You do not need any specialist art or craft skills, just enthusiasm,
dedication, and a desire to work magic. A visiting witch once commented
jokingly that a meeting of Levannah’s coven resembled an alternative Women’s
Institute meeting, and she has always rather cherished that description. This
book aims to pass on this experiential approach to witchcraft. All the craft
and making activities described in this book are reasonably safe and they have
been tried and tested, they are intended for adults.
