Synopsis

A hands-on guide from an experienced activist with tips on everything from joining activist groups to conjuring spells for self-protection.

There is a movement on the rise, one that brings the worlds of social justice and political activism together with the practice of witchcraft. Activists wish to add magical methods to their arsenal, while spell casters seek to use their powers to resist oppression. Written by an experienced witch-activist and with the current political climate in full view, the book shows listeners how to learn spells for self-protection and body shielding, as well as methods of developing enhanced psychic intuition and situational awareness. Salisbury explains how and why to conjure spirits of defense, land spirits, ancestral spirits of activism, as well as your own personal guardian spirits. Included are rituals, spells, and sigils, written clearly and simply, so that even someone with absolutely no previous experience in spell casting can immediately feel empowered and join the "witch resistance."

Goodreads review by Anna on March 10, 2025

This is an extremely interesting read. It includes historical references, mythology as well as philosophy. There's so much covered in a relatively short period of time. The one negative I will say is, I listened to the audio version of this book and unfortunately I just couldn't get on with the narr......more

Goodreads review by Alan on June 04, 2019

Illustrative and useful. The author combines both topics in theory and practice, and provides several historic examples on how, when and where witchcraft has been used as an activism tool. It is worth to keep an eye on this author.......more
