some of my favorite beginner witchcraft books!
as a 'baby witch', it's hard to figure out what's truly meant for beginners, and what's meant for more advanced practitioners. so, i've compiled a list of my favorite beginner witch books!
Drawing Down the Moon by Margot Adler
A fantastic (yet dense) book on overall witch history, historical figures in witchcraft, and the different "branches" of witchcraft that has developed over the years.
Elemental Witchcraft by Michelle Heron
While this book is meant to be Heron's own teachings about the "pentacle path" (and I'm not a huge fan of Heron's writings/musings), there is amazing information in this book about the foundations of witchcraft like hermetic philosophy and witch history. If you pick up this book, just make sure to take everything with a grain of salt.
Queer Magic edited by Lee Harrington and Tai Fenix Kulystin
If you follow me, you're probably a queer witch - and this book is essential. It's a collection of essays and musings, all by witches from different backgrounds, orientation, and practices. It's a fantastic read that I highly recommend to anyone that wants to be more inclusive with their practice - especially those who plan on building their own witchy communities.
Grovedaughter Witchery by Bree NicGarran (AKA @breelandwalker, right here on Tumblr!)
I couldn't make this list without including this incredible spell book. I know beginner witches are eager to get their hands dirty, and this book is perfect for that - tons of simple spells, rituals, and crafts for any witch. (And, tons of sass from Mama Bree herself!) I highly recommend picking up this book if you're interested in getting started in spell work, and if you're new to learning about correspondences.
The Magical Household by Scott Cunningham & David Harrington
Now... I'm not a huge fan of Scott Cunningham. He has a lot published, and most of his books are just regurgitations of other books he's written - but I really enjoyed this one. If you're a household witch, or you're interested in household magic, this is a great book to have on hand. It contains tons of rituals for the home (folklore included!), magical recipes, and tons more.
if you're interested in additional witchy books/readings, check out my reading materials tag!
(also, my ask box is completely open for discussion! if you've read these books, let me know if you liked them or not! or, if you have any recommendations for other witchy books, i'd love those, too!)
