The Modern Craft

An eclectic and radical collection of essays on contemporary witchcraft and the ethics of magic – a must-read for anyone engaged with the occult, witchcraft or magics of any kind.

Description

The Modern Craft offers galvanising and electrifying glimpses from the brink of contemporary Craft.

This eclectic collection of essays on responsible witchcraft provides a fascinating snapshot of contemporary occult practice. Essay topics include the ethics of decolonisation, meditations on what it means to honour Mother Earth during the Anthropocene, and the reclamation of agency for working-class and queer witches through practical spellwork.

The book also offers a gender-fluid perspective on breaking down traditional hierarchies in magical symbolism, a day in the life of a disabled Pagan Irish practitioner, and much more. These essays illustrate how we can all find inspiration and a force for powerful change in the modern Craft.

Featuring contributions from: Claire Askew, Lisa Marie Basile, Stella Hervey Birrell, Jane Claire Bradley, Madelyn Burnhope, Lilith Dorsey, AW Earl, Harry Josephine Giles, Simone Kotva, Iona Lee, Briana Pegado, Megan Rudden, Sabrina Scott, Em Still, and Alice Tarbuck.
