30 years ago, when Coven Oldenwilde called Pagans & Witches to emerge from their broom closet & work magic downtown in front of the Courthouse, Jail, & City Hall, we didn’t imagine that babes at breast would now be bringing their own kids — & a’times their grandkids — to our yearly rite. This year marks the 30-year Saturn Return astrological cycle completion of our annual public Samhain Sabbat.
Therefore, we invite you to:

The famous "blue book" features illustrated, authentically traditional magic authored by the first Gardner-trained Third Degree Witch to publish such material in America. However it cannot, as promised, impart the reader “the equivalent of Third Degree.”
Alphabetized information about Craft beliefs, traditions, lore, and practices; written by a witness to the modern rise of Witchcraft.
Illustrated, definitive, fascinating guide to Witchcraft that explains how everyone can use common ingredients to work effective magic to help themselves, others, and the planet; written by trained, experienced Gardnerians.
Teens to adults will like this guide to Pagan candle, herb, natural, and basic ritual magic; written in lyrical, non-dogmatic fashion, it’s illustrated with mood-enhancing photographs.
Illustrated with nude photographs, this book features modern British Alexandrian magic with an Irish emphasis; objectionable because: Its title is ungrammatical and contains an Xtian term, the term “complete” is arrogant, and the authors broke vows by including Gardnerian material forbidden to be printed.
Craft history, information about diverse magical practitioners, groups, and Covens, and resources; written by a traditionally trained Gardnerian Witch; the author included information about Coven Oldenwilde in this 20th-anniversary update of her 1986 original edition.
