OverviewThis title offers a deeper understanding of Wiccan practice for advanced practitioners. It presents a comprehensive, in-depth look at Wiccan rituals, beliefs and practices designed to take seasoned practitioners deeper into the heart of the religion. Most Wicca titles on the market are, in one way or another, dealing with the religion from a beginner's viewpoint, or from one of mild familiarity. Even the most detailed begin to take on an aspect of sameness after one or two have been tried. Now Kirk White, a practicing witch of 30 years' standing and Dean of the Cherry Hill Seminary - a Pagan college for clergy in Vermont - has collected his wisdom and experience in this indispensable reference work and manual for all seasoned Wiccans. Designed to take readers beyond the basics to a deeper understanding of all aspects of the Wiccan practice, ""Adept Circle Magic"" focuses specifically on the things that can really make a difference for continued growth along the Wiccan path. Although, it does cover many of the topics that are found in the beginner's books, White has extended and enlarged his view of them to encompass more involved themes that give greater resonance to standard practices. He looks at various kinds of circle casting (including squares and triangles) and examines energy - how to raise it and watch its effects at an advanced level; and at ritual movements, postures and breathing. He examines sacred spaces and offers clear advice on what type of space to choose for each particular ritual's intent. Similar treatment is given to initiations; aspecting and drawing down; divination; energetic healing and spellcasting; and the Wiccan wheel of the year. Filling the literary gap between introductory books on Wicca and advanced training, ""Adept Circle Magic"" is the manual serious acolytes have been waiting for.
