The Holy Book of Women’s Mysteries
by Z Budapest

A women’s spirituality classic now back in print! The Holy Book of Women’s Mysteries is essential for Pagans, feminists, and women seeking to learn more about the spiritual path as it relates to the feminine and the Goddess aspects of witchcraft and Wicca. This book is not about reinstating a matriarchy or tearing down patriarchy; it is about women’s spirituality and its relationship with politics and lifestyle. Z Budapest is one of the founding mothers of modern women’s witchcraft, beginning with the establishment of Susan B. Anthony Coven in Los Angeles in 1971. She catapulted herself into the media spotlight when she was tried as a witch and found guilty in 1975 after being arrested on Venice Beach for reading tarot cards. She fought the charges and, after a nine-year battle, won the right for every tarot reader to do so legally. The Holy Book of Women’s Mysteries is a seminal text that contains invaluable information on Dianic witchcraft and spells, including everyday magick, sabbat rituals, and divination methods; a section on how vegetarian theories and politics relate to witchcraft and the feminine aspect; and a good deal of information on goddesses and how the patriarchal religions distorted old myths to serve their own needs. There are several unique and beautiful Rites of Passage for women and men that you don’t often find, and Budapest’s personal life stories are an equally valuable read, from her escape across the mountains from Communist Hungary to her fight for women’s religious freedom upon moving to America. This reprint features a new introduction by Z. Budapest, in addition to essays by luminaries such as Starhawk and Merlin Stone. This 334-page trade paperback is a must have for any collection of Wiccan, feminist, or magical works.

Aradia - Gospel of the Witches (basic edition)
by Charles Leland

When Charles Godfrey Leland published Aradia at the end of the nineteenth century, he did not realize that he was providing the key source book that would be the missing link between ancient and modern witchcraft. Indeed, this book was the foundation upon which Gerald Gardner built his revival in the 1940s and `50s. Not only did Aradia inspire Gerald Gardner, Doreen Valiente, and the other founders/revivers of twentieth century Neopagan witchcraft, it continues to serve as a reference, check point and inspiration for others. "Probably the first major influence (on the lineage of modern witchcraft) in relatively modern times is that of Charles Godfrey Leland," said Doreen Valiente. When Gardner gave her the responsibility for rewriting some of their coven’s key rituals, she took Leland’s translation of Aradia and, using it for inspiration, wrote the now standard version of the "Charge of the Goddess", which is one of the most important rituals in modern Wicca. At this one hundredth anniversary of its first publication, Aradia continues forward, valued even today by the wisest followers of the "new" old religion.
