Book Reviews of Italian Witchcraft: The Old Religion of Southern Europe

Book Review: Finally, the connection has been made.
Summary: 5 Stars

Although, I am not Italian. I have so many connections, and my ways have been very close to what Raven teaches us of the Old Religion. When I began to read this book, I was worried I would not get through it. As Raven takes us back to the centuries and time of the Craft. However, I told myself in order to understand I needed this history lesson. I am extremely over joyed with doing exactly that. It was very interesting to see the ways of the strega already matched my personal opinion on what position my Altar should be in, the element connections with the tools. It is extremely interesting how Aradia, Diana, and Hecate all are connected in some way and the fact these names keep a close connection with me throughout my walk of this path. - I no longer consider myself a Non-Traditional Witch. I am on my way to learning more and proudly call myself Stregone (male Witch)

Summary of Italian Witchcraft: The Old Religion of Southern Europe

Italian Witchcraft (previously titled Ways of the Strega) by respected author Raven Grimassi is more than just a book about Witchcraft. It is a complete Book of Shadows. In it you will find the history of this ancient tradition, its legends and myths, as well as the rituals and rites that you can do today. You can be a Strega!

The book includes a full set of rituals that you can do. You'll find rituals for all of the Italian Witchcraft holidays including Shadow Fest, Lupercus, Tana's Day and more. You'll also find rituals for the Full Moon, births, funerals.

There is a practical side to this book, too. It is filled with instructions so that you can cast spells and work with the powers of incense, oils, herbs, and candles. You'll learn to work with the magick of the Moon and Stars. You'll be able to do protection rituals and learn how to cure someone who has received the "Malocchio" (Evil Eye).

Many of the mysteries revealed here have never been published before. You'll learn secret gestures of power and secret symbols. And you can use them all! Also revealed are the secrets of the tools of the Italian Witch. You'll learn how to prepare the "Spirit Blade" and the ritual wand. You'll learn how to make the Spirit Bowl and use to consecrate other tools and talismans.

If you're looking to discover real Witchcraft, or if you're already a Witch but are thinking about other traditions, this is the book for you.
