Book of Shadows by Migene Gonzālez-Wippler
"The Book of Shadows is the name given to the 'diary' of a Witch, but in reality it is much more than a diary; it is
a compendium of all the practices, beliefs, rituals, and spells of Witchcraft.
"Wicca is essentially a religion, as sacred and vital as other religions. Its central foundation is nature and all of
its laws. Witches maintain a constant identification with the flora, fauna, the waters, the winds, and all other natural phenomena.
"Witches' profound belief in the soul of nature allows them to establish contact with everything that exists, and nature
itself entrusts its most precious secrets to the Witche's care. A highly developed Witch may stop or bring the rain, raise
the wind or calm it, and carry out other magical acts equally astonishing.
"All of this is possible becasue of their faith in their own powers and the powers of nature. Anyone can do the same
if they remember that everything is possible for those who believe."
- Migene Gonzālez-Wippler

WITCHCRAFT
At certain periods in history hysteria and paranoia overcame many societies, and with this came the belief that all their
troubles were the result of witchcraft. For the alleged crime of witchcraft a simple accusation was often enough th guarantee
the horrific torture of the accused to extract a confession, then he or she would be subjected to a protracted and aganising
execution.
WITCHCRAFT traces the history of witchcraft, witch trials, and the people who were accused of, or who confessed
to, being witches. It also examines the symbols, objects and concepts claimed to be associated with witchcraft and looks at
Wicca, the modern neo-pagan religion of benevolent magic.
