description: Witchcraft, especially Wicca, has reached the age of maturity. At a recent women’s festival in California, over 20 women declared themselves to be Crones at a special ceremony. Many Witches are now second or even third generation practitioners, and it has been over 20 years since many first generation Witches started out with Starhawk’s "The Spiral Dance" or Buckland’s "Complete Book of Witchcraft." But where are the books for the experienced Witch? The shelves are flooded with "Wicca 101" books, and many readers are desperate for more advanced concepts beyond the basics of casting a circle and calling the quarters. Not simply a "Wicca 201" book, The Veil’s Edge discusses more unfamiliar and abstract concepts of magic and Witchcraft, - The Veil between the worlds and how it works- Direct contact with the Divine and how to handle it, including direct possession experiences- Ecstatic worship techniques and shamanism- Fae magic techniques, including the use of glamourie- Explorations into the illusiory nature of reality- Group dynamics and working with different kinds of energy flows- Scientific proof that magic works, backed up with case-by-case evidence- Intuitive Allowing yourself to sense and believe Readers are introduced to these topics through the author’s personal experiences and interviews with other Witches that have been practicing for many years. Anyone who considers themselves an experienced magic worker will appreciate this essential book which fills a genuine need within the maturing Pagan community.
