PRACTICE THE ART AND SCIENCE OF WITCHCRAFT Throughout the world there is a New Generation of Witches -- people practicing or wishing to practice the Craft on their own, without an in-the-flesh magickal support group. To Ride a Silver Broomstick presents both the science and religion of Witchcraft so you can become an active participant while growing at your own pace. This book is ideal for anyone, regardless of religious background: male or female, young or old, beginners and initiates. Full of the author's warmth, humor and personal anecdotes, To Ride a Silver Broomstick leads you step-by-step through the various lessons with exercises and journal writing assignments. This is the complete Witchcraft 101, and when you are finished with this course, you can be accepted within most magickal circles as a practicing Witch, without the political necessity of a title or a degree.
