Wicca for Beginners: A Beginners Guide to Wicca and Witchcraft , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 73min

If you've been considering living the magick life, but are not quite sure what all it entails, this is the guide for you. Wicca for Beginners: A Beginners Guide to Wicca and Witchcraft has all the broad strokes of this beautiful religion in one succinct, easy to listen to audiobook. For new neo pagans entering into the religious worship of the Goddesses and Gods of nature, taking the first steps can seem daunting. The Wiccan religion is by no means mainstream, and it has no official guidebook to follow. You could spend days scouring the corners of the Internet looking for spells and information, only to find that your sources are poorly researched blog posts, all copying and pasting the same Wikipedia entries. The hunt for true magick can be overwhelming, but don't despair. Wicca for Beginners: A Beginners Guide to Wicca and Witchcraft is by no means the first and last audiobook you'll ever need, but it does contain everything you'll need to know to decide if Wicca is right for you, and to complete the process of Self Dedication. Odds are good, if you're considering this audiobook, that you've come across a couple of online spells in your time, and that you know what a pentagram is, but this audiobook will present you with an overview of the Wiccan way of life and what being a witch truly means. Forget the Hollywood glamor, the movies about the shapeshifting teenagers, and poltergeist exorcisms. Being Wiccan is more than dancing naked at a Summer Solstice party and going gluten-free. Delve into the spiritual realm. Put aside your preconceived notions of a witch, and discover what Wicca really means. Inside you will discover the answer to the questions: Who is this Great Goddess, and why does she have so many names? Do Wiccans celebrate other holidays, or only when the seasons change? How does one become Wiccan, anyway? Do witches really use wands and broomsticks? Can a ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: sangita chauhan.

Ancestor Trouble (eBook, ePUB)

An acclaimed writer goes searching for the truth about her wildly unconventional Southern family-and finds that our obsession with ancestors opens up new ways of seeing ourselves-in this "brilliant mix of personal memoir and cultural observation" (The Boston Globe). "Newton is a logical thinker and a hyperacute observer, with a prodigious memory and a lacerating honesty. She's a transparent and at times lyrical writer."-Los Angeles Times ONE OF THE MOST ANTICIPATED BOOKS OF 2022-Oprah Daily, Time, Esquire, The Millions, The Week, Thrillist, She Reads, Lit Hub, BookPage Maud Newton's ancestors have vexed and fascinated her since she was a girl. Her mother's father, who came of age in Texas during the Great Depression, was said to have married thirteen times and been shot by one of his wives. Her mother's grandfather killed a man with a hay hook and died in an institution. Mental illness and religious fanaticism percolated through Maud's maternal lines back to an ancestor accused of being a witch in Puritan-era Massachusetts. Maud's father, an aerospace engineer turned lawyer, was an educated man who extolled the virtues of slavery and obsessed over the "purity" of his family bloodline, which he traced back to the Revolutionary War. He tried in vain to control Maud's mother, a whirlwind of charisma and passion given to feverish projects: thirty rescue cats, and a church in the family's living room where she performed exorcisms. Her parents' divorce, when it came, was a relief. Still, her position at the intersection of her family bloodlines inspired in Newton inspired an anxiety that she could not shake, a fear that she would replicate their damage. She saw similar anxieties in the lives of friends, in the works of writers and artists she admired. As obsessive in her own way as her parents, Newton researched her genealogy-her grandfather's marriages, the accused witch, her ancestors' roles in slavery and genocide-and sought family secrets through her DNA. But immersed in census archives and cousin matches, she yearned for deeper truths. Her journey took her into the realms of genetics, epigenetics, and the debates over intergenerational trauma. She mulled over modernity's dismissal of ancestors along with psychoanalytic and spiritual traditions that center them. Searching, moving, and inspiring, Ancestor Trouble is one writer's attempt to use genealogy-a once-niche hobby that has grown into a multi-billion-dollar industry-to expose the secrets and contradictions of her own ancestors, and to argue for the transformational possibilities that reckoning with our ancestors offers all of us.
