Books about Wicca or Paganism

Post by FrancesFloyd »

I am Wiccan and would love to hear of some books that relate to the religion. I love the author Silver Ravenwolf but haven't been able to find most of her books. Can anyone suggest other books to read?

I'm not Wiccan but am very fascinated with learning and reading on the subject. I have some books but what specifically are you looking for? Are you into tarot cards? Just wondering.

Yes I am into tarot cards although I do not have a deck. I am just looking for anything related to the subject, nothing really specific. Just something to help me along with my studies.

Scott Cunningham has a ton of books and seems to be a popular choice. I've read one and enjoyed its informational value. I've seen Silver Ravenwolf mentioned a lot but haven't read any; are they good? I'd really love to find more on the subject as well!

Scott Cunningham has a book for solitary practice which everyone seems to swear by, and I also read "so you want to be a witch" by Edain McCoy when I was younger. It might be a bit old now but very clear and easy at explaining things for people just getting started.

If you're looking for anything more generally related to folk religion, spirituality, or maybe even psychology I'd recommend The Sacred and the Profane, by Mircea Eliade and Modern Man in search of a Soul, by Carl Jung. Apparently, you can find The Sacred and the Profane for free in PDF format if you google it. Mircea also wrote a book titled Shamanism that I've heard is excellent as well. I'd also recommend the Power of Myth with Joseph Campbell and Bill Moyers. It's a transcription of an interview Moyers did with Campbell, although, you should be able to find the interview on youtube and I'd recommend watching that because it will send you to a lot of Campbells other interviews.

There's this book by Soraya. I think its titled, Spells & Psychic Powers has a note of Paganism & Wicca. Also under same publishing company, book title is, Dictionary of the Occult. Last time I opened it was few weeks ago. I dont know if its what you're searching for.
