Today we dove straight into the basic concepts and common terms in paganism and witchcraft. If you haven’t yet watched it, it’s available until 11am Tuesday 6 July in my Facebook group, which is also where I will be holding the next 4 classes this week :).

The Mists of Avalon is there because I love it and it was my introduction to the Old Ways! Many women have told me that they have read it and identify it as a great read.

So, on to the suggested reading to delve into a Witch’s Path in the Southern Hemisphere. From the top:
