This is an account of one woman's personal journey into an ancient sacred spirituality. The author, Phyllis Curott, tells of her extraordinary experiences and provides a history of witchcraft and Wiccan beliefs. Based on her own journey of discovery she initiates readers into the ways of the Old Religion which have been practised in secret for the last 500 years and passed down by families who carefully preserved the ancient earth religion of the Great Goddess. She also describes ancient techniques such as meditaition, energy work, trance states, ritual, prayer, spells and dreams. She includes stories of Goddesses from cultures all over the globe, such as the Celtic Goddesses Cerridwen and Brigantia, as well as tales of wise women, who throughout history have upset the authorities and been persecuted as witches.
