Publisher Comments:

A learned and serious guide to Witchcraft for the mature practitioner, by one of the craft's leading teachers.

Most of us tap only a fraction of our capacity as human beings. As a result, we often feel weak, directionless, or incomplete. Evolutionary Witchcraft shows us how to become the strong and compassionate, fierce and generous, joyous and responsible human individuals that we have the potential to be.

Using tools from the potent and secretive Feri Tradition of Witchcraft, author T. Thorn Coyle issues an invitation to our wild, magical core-the source of change and connection. In changing ourselves, we sow the seeds that also change the world.

In seeking to connect us to our deepest selves, Evolutionary Witchcraft presents tools mastered by few, but in a manner that is accessible to both the seasoned practitioner and the newcomer. One needs only a strong wish for change and a willingness to work. Following the ritual of creating sacred space, Evolutionary Witchcraft is designed to be read through once, and then used as a ten-month training program. Its many exercises-involving movement, spells, right intention, and occult ceremony-invite the reader to bring the work into daily interactions, transforming the ordinary into the extraordinary, alienation into wholeness.

About the Author

In high demand as a teacher, T. Thorn Coyle leads workshops across the United States and Canada.

This is a top-notch book for those interested in Feri, a particularly juicy and strong Witchcraft tradition. Practical exercises and solid explanations are accompanied by photographs and clear descriptions.

This is the textbook for the two-year classes Thorn teaches, and it is very well-structured. The main portion of the book is divided up into chapters, which each center around a direction (East, South, West, North, up, down, center), focusing on the deities, attributes, and tools associated with it. There are plenty of exercises, meditations, and rituals in each chapter -- this is as much a workbook as a book!

"Evolutionary Witchcraft" is a top-notch book for anybody interested in neo-paganism and the occult.
