Read or own a book you think others would enjoy? Post it here and tell us why it's a good read. I'll even start off with one of my own. I highly recommend Color Healing by Ted Andrews. I just saw it at the bookstore so I know it's back in print now. It's about what the title says, using color to heal yourself and others. My color healing skills are rusty with misuse now, but I practiced for a while and not only are the basics he lays out in the book simple enough to understand and apply, but they work surprisingly well from what I've seen.

Okay, some of you may destory me for this, but I recomend Solitary Witch by Silver Ravenwolf.
Cunningham's book, upon further inspections convinced me it was good after all.
So I say also, Scott Cunninghams Book Of Shadows.
Raven Digitalis and Konstantinos are both pretty interesting authors for Neo-Pagans. Raven is a little uppety with PETA, but for Goth people, his Goth Craft is quite amusing.
When I returned to Witchcraft I found Konstantinos's Nocturnal Witchcraft was good.

I totally forgot about Nocturnal Witchcraft, I own that one and the sequel Gothic Grimoire and it's good too. Another one I have that I like is Urban Primitive: Paganism in the Concrete Jungle by a bunch of people. It's about what the title says, and I actually still have my original copy too (that never happens with me, hehe). It even has a part on tattoos for protection, and what different piercings mean. It's quite a fabulous book.

I have Urban Primative, and didn't like it. I dunno, I guess I couldn't get past the spirit of the road thing with a straight face, but whatever floats your boat, right?

KasaChan I have Urban Primative, and didn't like it. I dunno, I guess I couldn't get past the spirit of the road thing with a straight face, but whatever floats your boat, right? Hehe, yeah. That was one of the things that drew me in, but having said that I seem to be more in tune to the energies of cities and such stuff than others.

the blend of cultures in cities can bring different flavors out in rites, now won't they.

That it can. Another book people might want to look at is The Druidry Handbook by John Michael Greer. True it's about Druidism, but a lot of Wicca came from the Druid movement so you might want to check that one out as well. It's quite informative.

For anyone seeking the Seax path, like myself, or even the solitary path, I just chewed through the first 40 pages of Raymond Buckland's "Wicca for One" It's very well put together and very informative. It has a lot of the history of witches, of all kinds, what Wicca started as, and so on.
