"The first time I called myself a 'Witch' was the most magical moment of my life."― Margot Adler. Merry Meet! I am a witch who lives in a small mountain village in Italy, and witchcraft and magic are a daily part of my life. It has been a strange, wondrous, sometimes terrifying, and painful journey that brought me here from Canada, where I was born. When I first arrived in Italy, I had the opportunity to visit an archaeological site that was sacred to the indigenous pagans in the area. Alone, I thought this would be a great time to do some shamanic work and try to connect with any of the local spirits who might be around. Not only was I given the gift of many new insights, but I had the uncanny feeling that the Spirits of the Land and Sky were preparing a project for me. At the time I had no idea what that project was going to be, but I now understand it to be, at least in part, the writing of this book. An invitation to learn about witchcraft, what it is and how to do it. I am a modern cosmic witch, and this book will give you a good basic introduction to what it means to be a witch in the 21st century. "To reclaim the word witch is to reclaim our right, as women, to be powerful" - Starhawk. This is a book about witches and witchcraft written by a witch and designed to be accessible to anyone who has even had a mild curiosity about this subject. Here we will explore our traditions, myths, magic, female sexuality, the supernatural, and empowerment. I will write about the terror of the European witch hunts, and some of the historical witches I have come across in my research and how these women have inspired me. We will then fly up to the present day, when millions of people across the world are identifying as witches and pagans at a time when nature is at serious risk and Western society desperately needs to be enchanted. The intention of this book is to inspire, enchant, empower, and challenge you, whether you identify as a witch or not. Welcome to Cosmic Witch! Welcome to Magic!
