The Gentle Art of Natural Magic

The Gentle Arts of Natural Magic is aimed at introducing the ancient skills and techniques of folk magic and witchcraft to those living in the modern world. Here are the keys to working with the Earth, the Water, the Fire and the Air, building the patterns of simple, personal rituals, meeting the Old Goddesses and Gods of the land. These pages offer insight into the fading links between humanity and the Natural World. It is through these ancient links that the power to heal, to see into the future and to work with the old magics may be made to flow for those with the eyes to see and the patience to master these forgotten skills. These are the arts of the Wise Woman and the Cunning Man, traditional helpers in the rural community rather than the more recent book-bound coven wiccans which other writers describe.
