Book of Spells
   

   

    

A book used by witches and magicians for writing out magic spells, instructions, invocations, incantations, prayers, recipes and diagrams associated with the magic they practice. Such a book is also known as Book of Shadows.

In traditional Wicca (such as the Gardnerian, Alexandrian, and similar traditions), the Book of Shadows is a text containing the rituals, practices, and wisdom of that tradition. It is copied by hand from that of one's initiator (High Priestess or Priest), who copied it from his or her initiator. The traditional material it contains may not be changed, although additions may be made. Some people recommend keeping this book in a safe place and only writing in it using blue ink.

American Exorcism: Expelling Demons in the Land of Plenty

American Exorcism: Expelling Demons in the Land of Plenty

Not so long ago pundits were complaining that Americans had lost their sense of evil; "no one cares about Satan anymore," they sighed. This mesmerizing study proves them utterly misguided. Cuneo, an intrepid sociologist based at Fordham University, explores the bizarre subculture of renegade priests, rough-and-tumble preachers, shady psychiatrists and tormented souls, spewing foulness. Building on his earlier surveys along the fringes of contemporary Catholicism, the "openmindedly skeptical"...
