A comprehensive introduction to Wicca, blending grounded theory with rich practical guidance. From foundational theology to ritual work, Roadmap by Moonlight offers a long-term, sustainable path into modern Pagan witchcraft for curious seekers and beginning practitioners alike.
A Practical and Philosophical Guide to Modern Pagan Witchcraft
In Roadmap by Moonlight, longtime practitioner Deborah Lipp offers a complete, accessible introduction to Wicca, thoughtfully balancing spiritual theory with hands-on practice. Drawing from over four decades of experience, Lipp explores what Wicca is (and isn't), common misconceptions, and how the craft has evolved from its 20th-century roots into today's diverse expressions.
This book is both foundational and flexible. It covers theology, ethics, and cosmology, while offering a wide range of practical tools: lunar rites, sabbat celebrations, invocations, solitary and group rituals, and ceremonies for major life events such as handfastings and baby blessings. With exercises for connecting to nature and deity, along with guidance on altars, tools, and writing your own rituals, Roadmap by Moonlight gives readers everything they need to start and sustain a personal practice.
Written with clarity, warmth, and depth, this is a single-volume resource for the spiritually curious, the Wiccan beginner, or the solitary witch seeking a more grounded framework. Whether you're just starting your journey or looking to refresh your practice, Roadmap by Moonlight is a thoughtful companion for the path ahead.
