What Witches Do
What Witches Do | Stewart Farrar, Janet Farrar
1 post | 1 read | 1 to read
What do witches really do? What is it like to be a witch? Experience the process through the eyes of Stewart Farrar – author, journalist and witch – as he describes in detail the activities and practices of modern day witches.When Stewart first starting writing What Witches Do he was ‘an interested agnostic’ writing from an objective viewpoint. But by the time the book was finished he had been initiated into the mysteries of Wicca, and was destined to become internationally known as one of the worlds leading writers on the subject. Even though now almost forty years old, the material and philosophy that Stewart discusses within remains as relevant today as it did in the early 1970s. Retrace those life changing steps with Stewart as he explores the magic, ritual and mystery of life in a coven. The book now also includes Stewart’s research material which sheds new light on his involvement with ‘King of the Witches’, Alex Sanders, founder of the Alexandrian Tradition.

This book is almost 50 years old, and with a few minor exceptions, it is still relevant today. I‘ve been a practicing witch for 20 years and learned plenty from this book. Farrar writes in a clear and concise manner, without any of the hyperbole or overblown mysticism you find in other books on witchcraft. I appreciated his direct style, journalistic observations as a newcomer in a coven, and thoughtful research into history and traditions.
