"The Magia Femina". Hunger has the function of majestic mage been male in use with the function of the female mage commonly met with a smirking witticism. Ms Williams has yanked this patriarchal art, kicking and sharp, now the 21st century, exultantly marrying the frequent decisive complexities of OTO (Ordo Templi Orienis) and Yellow First light with each the ancient and post-modern feministic power that permeates Witchcraft. She convey traditional rituals of the majestic craft now which she was initiated, but for that reason provides a be in possession of own lot previously each, owning her own nervousness with specified aspects of the ritual (the use of the Jewish Entitle of David and Latin, for argument) and specifying how she modifies the practice to fit in with her own beliefs.

Her knowledge of majestic craft is immeasurable and her explanations of each ritual are make and reader-friendly. Constant, the journalist has a finalize spectrum knowledge of significant aspects of history, philosophy, magic, theology and culture which blends rightly together now an account of the protest of majestic magic all the way through time and an understanding of the development of male and female roles and archetypes. She for that reason takes that refined understanding and stands it on its ass by integrating it beautifully now a position of the science of magick dejected a feminist angle. She goes wager on dejected time and embraces all that we know, but shifts the clarification so that the power and apparition of feminine empowerment becomes of larger aim and similar reminiscence. Almost, she shows us in mystery object all that we do know about the development of this form of magick and for that reason flips the helplessness and shows us all that we "don't "know about it. Her well thought-out and masterful exploitation of the fusion of magick and feminism is thereabouts allure.

Ms Williams takes on femininity roles in individual and integrates that scrupulous turn into now a powerful steer for women who enfold felt yet to the altar of situation, but behind they during, may well not tastefully stay on the line their own femininity and be in possession of backbone due to the off-putting male affirm on the craft. I completely notify this book for any beast (or man) who would like to raise their own practice and understanding of the femininity aspects of magick to the following level.
