Historians have studied witchcraft for years, and many in medieval times were fascinated by this misunderstood religion and belief system. For author Steven Leslie Golding, it’s one of the most positive, friendly, and nature-based religions that calls to him. In Philosophy of Witchcraft, he shares his story of his experiences, telling how he turned to Wicca more than six years in his early fifties. He discusses the history of witchcraft and offers a look at what ancient witches faced in medieval Britain. In addition, Golding shares an overview of the elements of the modern pagan witchcraft such as its festivals, weekend courses, rituals, the witch’s tools, telepathy and clairvoyance, the imagery of witchcraft, spells, astral travel, and more. Drawing on his life as a solitary witch, one not part of a coven, Golding gives keen insight into to the often-misunderstood world of witchcraft and the occult.

Excerpt from The Philosophy of Witchcraft The importance given to Demonology, or Witchcraft, is one of the most extraordinary features in the history of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, and exhibits one of the most extravagant and unphilosophical beliefs that ever disgraced the credulity of man. Men, the most talented and learned, have bent the whole strength of their minds to the elucidation of the principles on which was based this popular opinion, and from the prevalence of which has sprung so much evil. Notwithstanding all that has been written on this subject, the Editors are of opinion, that much of the bold outline that has been sketched by former authors, still remains to be filled up, and offers a field of extensive inquiry and important discovery. The philosophy of mind has ever been a subject of deep interest, and that department which leads to a belief in "things not seen," has, more than any other, promoted the happiness, or increased the misery of the human race.
