Wicca
Magickal Beginnings
A Study of the Possible Origins of the Rituals
and Practices found in this modern tradition
of pagan Witchcraft and Magick
By Sorita dEste & David Rankine
The origins of the Wiccan Tradition have
long been a subject of debate amongst practitioners
and scholars alike. Did Gerald Gardner invent
the tradition? Is Wicca a survival of a British
folk magick system? Could it be a continuation
of a European tradition of Pagan Witchcraft?
Might it be that it evolved from Victorian ceremonial
magick, or perhaps it is the modern manifestation
of the medieval Grimoire Tradition? To

Remember
all the book reviews and author interviews which
used to form a part of this website? The Book
Review section was increasingly popular and
we felt that it was appropriate to give it a
home of its own. Our team of reviewers are all
working away to make this THE place to read
about the latest books on subjects ranging from
Wicca, Goddess mysteries through to Freemasonry,
Templar history and everything inbetween - both
practical and academic. Visit the Avalonia
Esoteric Book Review now for more info.
