Wicca 101 for young men.
Wicca is a spiritual path open to all. Yet young men may have trouble identifying their place in this seemingly female-dominated religion. Without many male role models, how can one become empowered as a son of the Goddess?
Christopher Penczak, who learned about Witchcraft and magick in his late teens, offers guidance to all the young men out there who are curious about Wicca. Sons of the Goddess: A Young Man's Guide to Wicca is a much-needed masculine perspective on the Craft. Sons of the Goddess explores divine masculinity found in ancient myths, male energies, and rites of passage. Penczak also describes the fundamentals of Wicca, including the rule of three, the Wiccan Rede, spellcraft, rituals, holidays, and Witchcraft ethics.
In Sons of the Goddess: A Young Man's Guide to Wicca, you'll find:
- An introduction to Wicca and Witchcraft exclusively for men
- Stories and imagery of male divinity, from Sun Child and the Green Man to Warrior and King
- An exploration of mother and son mythology
- Ritual, spell craft, and meditations for creating positive change
- Code of honor and ethics applicacble to readers seeking to live a more responsible life.
The following is an excerpt from Sons of the Goddess: A Young Man's Guide to Wicca:
The Witchs Walk: First Steps on the Path
One of the first things I learned about witchcraft is that you must walk your talk. Not everyone should go around calling himself a witch, but with so many personal and eclectic traditions of Wicca, there is no central authority, council, or agency that certifies people as witches. And most witches prefer it that way. I know I do. So then, how do you become a witch? I was taught that true witches know their stuff. They know their Craft, their history, and their science. True witches, as opposed to those just playing with the idea of being a witch, not only know these things, they live them. True witches strive to live a life of balance, harmony, health, and magick. Some of us are truly witches at heart, but if you want to be a true witch, you should seek to know your history and traditions and learn the skills to put them into practice.
