Splendid!

A necessary book for every Wiccan. I wasn't expecting to learn much because I've read hundreds of books and have been practicing for years. Was I WRONG. This book gave me more encite to sharpened my 'spiritual' tools in the first 30 pages. Her explanations are clear, her techniques simply spoken. (The personal stories only add to the feeling of being taught with consideration and patience) The 'Work' sections are, I feel, necessary to truly living this life. Its a book to take you levels deeper, to teach the things you can't learn without being an apprentice of a skilled teacher.(Like Silver) Or in a coven. I suggest anyone who wants to begin learning the ways of Wicca,(Since we never stop learning) to start with Scott Cunninghams; Wicca, A guide for the Solitary practioner & Living Wicca, A further Guide to the Solitary Practioner and Silver's 'To Ride a Silver Broomstick,To Stir... and To Light...' Silver's books are a foundation I wish I'd had 8 years ago.

LIBRARY

If you just started in Wicca/Witchcraft there is six books that are a must for your Library: 1. Wicca a Guide For The Solitary Practitioner (Scott Cunningham) 2. Living Wicca A Further Guide for the Solitary Practitioner (Scott Cunningham) 3. To Ride A Silver Broomstick (Silver RavenWolf) 4. To Stir A Magick Cauldron (Silver RavenWolf) 5. To Light A Sacred Flame (Silver RavenWolf) and 6. Bucklans's Complete Book Of Witchcraft (Raymond Buckland) These six books are a most for any Wiccan/Witch. Just read them and take what you need and forget the rest. I have bought all of Scott Cunningham books that are out at this time and I just bought Slver RavenWolf three books that I have mention and She is great she is a compliment to Scott work! When I grew in the Craft I needed books to help me and RavenWolf books has help me to do just that GROW in the CRAFT. Thanks MS. RavenWolfP.S. It does not matter what name she used to write her books SHE is GREAT!

not a boring textbook

this book teaches you alot and keeps your interest unlike some boring wicca textbooks, it was the first book that showed me how to use planetary hours, it has alot of circle castings, talks about the quarters, alot about the moon, alot about devotionals, plus salutes, different types of magick. also read to light a sacred flame, which i believe to be her best book so far

Another masterpiece!

I give Ravenwolf a round of applause. This book is infomative, but not overwhelming, and fun to read. She guides you through your basic learning as if she were your private teacher. If you are an advanced practicioner, however, this book is NOT for you! She didn't write it thinking, "Wow, I'm gonna teach all the 12 year Witches all over again!" It is focused towards younger, less informed people so that they might have a broad view of the science, art, and religion of Witchcraft. A definat "must" for any first or second year student!

Silver is an excellent Author and Witch ! Great Book Silver

This book is the very best so far ! I read "To Ride a Silver Broomstick! To Ride...was my very first book on Wicca and it helped me tremendously. Now after 2 years in the Craft I am ready to move on to intermediate study, and "To Stir a Magick Cauldron is by far the best book for intermediate study of the Craft. Silver is obviously a talented Writer and Wiccan Witch. Make sure you pay attention to her "unique" perspective on the Elementals in this book ! And make sure to buy Llewellyn's Yearly Almanacs because Silver is regular contributor to it and always writes excellent articles on everything Wiccan. Some people complain that she writes like a MOM, or she writes like she is talking to children. Please understand that Silver IS A MOM ! and obviously dedicated to her family, and once a mom, always a mom no matter who you are talking to. In short, buy the book ! You won't regret it!P.S. Its too bad Christians have nothing better to do with their time than to come in here, and pretend they are Pagans and give bad book reviews to our most celebrated authors. Its so easy to tell when a christian is "Pretending". If you want an idea of what I am talking about, check out the two reviews titled , "stir, stir," Blessed Be Silver !
