Notes from page 4

Modern Witchcraft is a path of wisdom that emphasizes a radical new form of personal sovereignty, truth-seeking, empowerment, and responsibility.
It stands proudly on the foundations of our ancestors while we craft a meaningful connection to nature that serves our future.
Modern Witchcraft is a spirituality that blends scientific knowledge and ancient mysticism with the goal of evolving beyond the pitfalls of other religions.
It provides a lens through which we can maintain a balanced perspective, offering a structure through which we can process life’s challenges and grow through them with grace.

Treading the witching path is a lot like a dance to the rhythm of nature. We move through the dance in partnership with the God/dess. Sometimes it is a waltz; sometimes it is a mosh pit, but Witchcraft teaches us to lace up our combat boots and jump right in.

This form of Modern Witchcraft is a reclaimed form of Neopagan religion. Specifically, the panentheism influenced by the Greco-Egyptian philosophy known as Hermetics.
It is also an occult magickal system emerging within the Western Esoteric Traditions: Neoplatonic philosophy, Hermetic alchemy, Rosicrucian Order, Theosophy, Freemasonry, theurgy, qabala, astrology, tarot cards, yoga, chakra systems, Wicca, New Thought, New Age, metaphysics, and psychology.
Despite the ancient sources, the cosmology and paradigm of Hermetics easily aligns with advances in scientific discoveries and provides a naturally progressive, ecologically sustainable, culturally transformative, and radically inclusive framework through which we evolve into a globally aware twenty-first century.
