Rachel Pollack's Tarot Wisdom: Spiritual Teachings and Deeper Meanings Review

Rachel Pollack's Tarot Wisdom: Spiritual Teachings and Deeper Meanings
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
In the beginning was the word, and the word was SEVENTY-EIGHT DEGREES OF WISDOM, (often called the "Tarot Bible" by Pollack disciples) and we saw that it was good.
And now, building on that masterful work, Ms. Pollack has written a "tell all" book of Tarot. In this unique body of work, she has ingeniously integrated Tarot history, traditional meanings, astrology, Kabbalah and mythology, along with reading techniques, original spreads, and her own rich life experiences as a Taroist, author and teacher.
In these challenging economic times, if you are looking for that one book that gives your the biggest bang for your buck, look no further: It is TAROT WISDOM. Scott Martin

This is a great starting place for those exploring Wicca and trying to find their spiritual path. It carefully explains some controversial material and asks you to form your OWN opinions rather than stuffing the author's ideas down your throat. The training and example rituals are simple, clear and easy to modify for your own use (and such modification is actually recommended!). Topics and material are set in lessons that are easy to understand and digest, and there is a comprehensive set of home-study and research options, complete with web-links to help get the ball rolling.
Overall this is one of the best efforts I have seen to-date, and I consider it a wonderful addition to my personal library. I find myself consulting this work regularly for ideas and to help explain concepts to beginner students.

Pagan Degrees for Children Review

Pagan Degrees for Children
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I have been looking for a good book on how to introduce or teach paganism/Wicca to my daughter for quite a while now. I bought this book along with "A Witch's Primer" and I like this book a lot. While I don't particularly agree with the age recommendations (starting a 5 years old is a way too young to start), the system is very well thought out. The book emphasizes ethics, family/community/world service, ecology, religious tolerance/understanding, safety (candle, fire, knife, etc), Art and expression, as well as ritual, sabbats, deities, and tools. The system is like a scouts system with merit badges, projects, and activities. Also, the system is organized in levels or degrees that are easy and motivational for children to advance through. Another great thing about this book is that it is free of the political/historical BS that usually accompanies such books and it encourages exploration and research. I like that the book asks questions of the students/children instead of "telling it like it is." Overall this is a great foundation for teaching children about their family's religion.

Self-Initiation for the Solitary Witch: Attaining Higher Spirituality Through a Five-Degree System Review

Self-Initiation for the Solitary Witch: Attaining Higher Spirituality Through a Five-Degree System
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
In Self Initiation for the Solitary Witch, there is no hype or hooplaah --no urging or pressure to "...do it my way". Shanddaramon just succintly offers possibilities for growth and development as a witch. This book serves as a guide, for both the novice and the seasoned witch, offering methods through which one may expand one's scope, practice, or method of living. Life is a process; i.e., continuing development involving many changes. In life each person may consciously choose a destination or goal that is as individual as the human thumbprint. Thus, there can be no single road map -no 'one size fits all' method of living or spiritual development. Each person's respecitve 'Path' is already defined deep within the self. Shanddaramon offers a degree system that is adaptable to the specific 'Path' a witch may walk as he/she creates and recreates the self per his/her own particular image as life unfolds.

Within modern Wicca, the urge still exists to find a particular school of study. Covens are an option for some, but they can be hard to find. Even when you find one, it may not satisfyyour particular quest. In addition, many people who desire more direct access to their god or goddess choose to practice alone. This book is the solution to all of these dilemmas.

Witch School First Degree: Lessons in the Correllian Tradition Review

Witch School First Degree: Lessons in the Correllian Tradition
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Witch School, First Degree by Rev. Donald Lewis-Highcorrell is the first book in a three-volume series that introduces readers to Correllian tradition Wicca. A fourth volume is dedicated to mastering the art of ritual. The goal of First Degree is to provide enough knowledge that the reader should be able to initiate themselves into the Craft by the end of the book. There is even a ritual provided for the Outer Court initiate, should they choose Self-Wiccaning.
Correllian Nativist Wicca was originally formed in 1879 by a woman of Scots-Cherokee ancestry, Orpheius Caroline. In 1979, after the Council of Elders appointed new leadership, the Correllian tradition was opened to the public. They began creating a series of correspondence courses, which became the lessons found between the covers of Witch School.
Witch School is formatted much like a textbook, with a total of twelve chaptered lessons (one for each month, for a year's worth of tutelage). Each chapter covers a new facet of the religion, from magic to stones and crystals. An exercise is then provided, with an introduction to a different god in each lesson. The chapter then closes on a series of review questions.
The lessons are straightforward and easy to follow. Most of the information is relevant to any tradition of Wicca, not just Correllian. As is common practice, a student becomes an initiate after one year of study. The book is set up perfectly to accomodate this schedule with the monthly lesson style.
For the person who has been reading up on the subject for a while, initially there may not appear to be a great deal of new information in Witch School, First Degree. It is aimed more at someone who is completely unfamiliar with the religion and would need step by step guidance. I'm sure the second and third volumes would be appropriate for those who already have some knowledge of the Craft. However, anyone can benefit from the exercises provided, regardless of mastery degree. The detailed history of the various forms of deity is also a benefit not found in many other books on the subject. Witch School, First Degree, in the least, could make an excellent reference book for any library or a comprehensive refresher course. I'm eager to begin reading Second Degree.
