The Urban Primitive: Paganism in the Concrete Jungle

You consider yourself a Pagan, or a Magician, or a Witch, because you know there's more to this world than meets the mundane eye. You believe that magic can influence events in your own life and in the world around you. But you don't live on some pastoral, isolated farm, living off the land, generating your own electricity and pumping your own water. No, you live in the urban jungle. You learned early on that money really doesn't grow on trees, and you don't have wads of extra cash to spend on elaborate ritual tools, custom spell ingredients, and stylish ritual attire. So what a modern urban Pagan to do? Learn how to live a magical life in the concrete jungle. Whether you're a seasoned practitioner or you've never cast a spell before, this in-your-face guide to commando-style magic is for every urban primitive. This description may be from another edition of this product.

Unusual but Awesome!

A little about me: I never take anything I read as gospel. I am not a "pagan" and I do not identify myself with any particular path. I'm a wandering mystic. I just kind of read everything and take what rings truth in me and assimilate it into my personal belief structure. This book fills a very real need in mystical literature for people like me. I am the sort of person who generally prefers cities over the country (although...

Learning to live magickally in the urban jungle

Wouldn't it be wonderful if all Pagans could afford to live close to nature somewhere out in the country, or at least have a nice big back yard in the suburbs? As a Wiccan I've been lucky enough to have access to some lovely back yards where my Coven could conduct beautiful outdoor rituals. Not everyone is so lucky (Or even so inclined - some city dwellers would be bored silly in the country or the suburbs). What if...

Straightforward and Practical

A Book I Will Actually Use

With so many books going over the basics again and again or outlining complicated rituals and spells, I found Urban Primitive to be refreshing and useful. Pointing out the unique problems inherent in urban living and offering magical solutions in plain language, this book won a place in my heart. In addition, the authors took into account the role of body modification and other modern urban rituals that are being used in...

Magick for the real world

All too often books on magick are set in some utopian rural environment. The reality of it is, most of us live either in cities or suburbs. We don't deal on a daily basis with the gods of woodland and field, we deal with the gods of concrete and mass transit. Kaldera and Schwarzstein have put together a great field manual for the urban pagan. Everything from protecting oneself from the dangers of the city to dealing with the...
