About this listen

Written in the form of letters from an experienced witch to her two apprentices, solitary witchcraft is offered, not as a substitute for coven worship, but as a fulfilling lifestyle in its own right. Rae Beth explains the importance of the Goddess and her consort, the Horned God, as sources of spiritual strength and worship. The author extols the feminine principles of healing and regeneration as well as attacking greed and self-interest, which jeopardize the planet's very future. Rae Beth provides spells for all the key festivals of the witch's calendar, describes and outlines the Pagan approach to finding a partner. Her lyrical letters bring the listener towards a deeper understanding of the solitary witch's lifestyle and beliefs.

the narrator completely spoiled the content. so brash and forceful. Almost sounds like AI. Maybe it is

christ this narrator is awful to listen to

The voice isn’t great - likely I’ll read instead as this isn’t easy to listen to

Narration

I listened to the audio version of this book. I found the narrators voice challenging to listen too, as there was a slight robotic quality to it which was very jarring. This was a shame as the format of the book, a series of letters was very interesting.

I find it frustrating how some statements seem to have been made in order to avoid criticism or comment. For example there is a lot of talk around wishing for world peace. And then in a later letter she says something to the effect of because one day the power of all these witches must bare fruit. But surely the fact that witches have been wishing for it for possibly hundreds of years proves that to not be the case? Does this mean the personal wishes will take hundreds of years to? And if this isn't the case why are personal wishes prioritise over world peace?

According to the author a lot of visualisation is needed for witch craft. But what happens if your one of those people who can't visualise things. And if everything you imagine appears on the astral plain, how can that work? Do they just wink in and out of existence? While I found this book interesting, it left me with me questions and scepticism than when I started.

So many questions

The narration was strangely irritating. Although the book takes the stance of Wicca is not about crooked pointed hats and hubble bubble, the narrator's tone sounds exactly that. I couldn't get past that.

The format of letters didn't work for me either although the content was informative.

Returned due to narration.

It seems I am one of the few that doesn’t mind the narration, I rather enjoyed it. The book is from the stance of a solitary Wiccan during 1987 and 1988, the information is regarding a practitioners personal knowledge of their own form of solitary Wicca and is not meant to be a look at every aspect of magickal tradition.

I found the documentation of letters shared between Rae Beth and those looking to learn very insightful and found many aspects that can be incorporated into my own practice
