A Witch's Shadow Magick Compendium

""According to Jung, children become adults through a process called individuation. As the world of magick moves boldly into the twenty-first century, it is time that magick, too, individuates from its eighteenth- and nineteenth-century parents and its twentieth-century childhood. Part of this maturation is the realization that wherever there is light, there is also shadow... Jung pointed out that our most famous myths are variations of a universal ""Hero's Journey."" Shadow Magick Compendium doesn't merely share this mythic Journey, it gives you keys and guidance to follow it yourself."" --Donald Michael Kraig, author of Modern Magick and Modern Tantra ""A must-read for the serious practitioner of magick. To become cognizant of your shadow and embrace its dynamic teaching is to learn the true guide to the manifestation of your goals unhindered. Let the light manifest from the root of your shadow! Raven presents empowering work in this amazing book!"" --Silver RavenWolf, author of To Ride a Silver Broomstick and Solitary Witch ""By examining how magic works in various realms from the internal to the external and beyond, Raven shows how Shadow energy can be tapped as a positive force in bringing balance back into one's life... this book is a wellspring of information that competently transcends all religious and spiritual paths. Well done!"" --Ann Moura, author of the Green Witchcraft series ""An exceptional guide to exploring the shadow side for a fully integrated path of magickal and spiritual enlightenment."" --Rosemary Ellen Guiley, author of The Encyclopedia of Witches, Witchcraft & Wicca ""Raven joins the writers and authors giving the world workable occult technologies - systems of understanding to prepare individuals for the dangerous journey to wisdom and fulfillment. Shadow Magick Compendium is a treasury of resources for just that."" --Robin Artisson, author of The Witching Way of the Hollow Hill and Letters from the Devil's Forest: An Anthology of Writings on Traditional Witchcraft, Spiritual Ecology & Provenance Traditionalism ""One of the most basic tenets of Witchcraft is also its most challenging: Know Thyself. Raven Digitalis, author of Goth Craft, gives us a new tool for this important task... a 'must have' for White Witches, Dark Witches, and everyone in between."" --Deborah Blake, author of The Everyday Witch series ""This important book belongs in the library of any serious student of magic, self-evolution, and spirituality... Amid a wealth of fascinating information and inspiring exercises, Raven not only covers the psychology of magic - perhaps its foundation stone - but also the history of modern magical practice, in terms of the Shadow... It's truly refreshing to find a book on magic that has new things to say, as well as including thoughtful interpretations of existing beliefs and practices."" --Storm Constantine, author of the Wraeththu novels ""Shadow Magick Compendium opens the way for us to reconcile our visible self with our shadow self... Once a lamp is lifted into the darkness, there is nothing left to fear."" --Leilah Wendell, author of The Necromantic Ritual Book and Our Name is Melancholy: The Complete Books of Azrael ""Raven Digitalis's revised and expanded masterpiece on the art of shadow magic offers a rich and dynamic overview of how readers can utilize the darkness of their inner and outer landscapes to reclaim personal power. Often painted as negative, embracing the shadow can be a healing and cathartic experience, especially when explored magically. Digitalis's empathetic and approachable teachings will assist those seeking emotional and spiritual balance for empowerment."" --Michael Herkes, author of The GLAM Witch & Witchcraft for Daily Self-Care ""A guide to unearthing the darker aspects of our self as well as a guide to integrating them in both the beginning and advanced practitioner."" --David Allen Hulse, author of The Western Mysteries and The Eastern Mysteries
