WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT GRIMOIRE OF A KITCHEN WITCH This is certainly a very friendly book, providing a helpful guide to Kitchen Witchery and for those stepping onto the path, bringing practical spirituality back into the home. Cat Treadwell, author of A Druid’s Tale I think if Terry Pratchett’s witches wrote an introduction to magic, it would look a lot like this book. Pragmatic, playful, wise and sprinkled with humour, the author covers a lot of ground and isn’t afraid to use a wooden spoon! Nimue Brown, author of Druidry & Meditation, Druidry & the Ancestors, & the Hopeless Maine Saga This book is packed with so much information that it makes you feel as though you have a major learning tool in your hands. Yet it is written in such a way that allows you to feel that the author is talking directly and personally to YOU! This conversational feel allows information to be passed on without any sense of preaching, dogma or ego. The writing style is friendly but also precise. Although written from the kitchen witch perspective, this is a great book for all who follow an earthy path and as a shaman, I enjoyed it more than some of the shamanic books out there. The book unfolds into more and more explanations, stories and advice without ever assuming knowledge but also never assuming that the reader is anything less than intelligent and sentient. So it is never preachy, starchy, condescending or obtuse. I particularly enjoyed the sections on animal guides and elementals. The meditations and lessons are well thought out and the little extras like Hoodoo and planetary influences are informative and fun. There is just so much packed into this book.

My craft name is Tansy Firedragon and I have been a witch for many years now, originally studying on my own as a solitary from books and the internet. I then spent a year and a half studying and gaining a first degree with the Correllian Tradition of which I am an Outer Court Member. That was followed by nearly eight years studying for the Wiccan first, second and third degrees with two different groups and then becoming a High Priestess in 2011. I studied with Janet Farrar and Gavin Bone on their Progressive Magick course, passing with a distinction. I have also studied druidry with the Order of Bards, Ovates and Druids, as well as tarot, the pendulum, herbalism, empathy, witches runes, hoodoo and aromatherapy. I have Reiki Level I and II attunements. In 2012 I was ordained as a Minister of the Universal Life Church. I am High Priestess in my own coven co-run by my lovely sisters in the craft, the Kitchen Witch Coven of Natural Witchery as well as being a member of the Dorset Grove Druids, which allows me to attend lots of outside rituals in wonderful sacred places within the UK. I am co-founder and a leadership team member of the online Kitchen Witch School of Natural Witchcraft; we also have a facebook page and a blog. www.kitchenwitchhearth.com www.kitchenwitchuk.blogspot.co.uk www.facebook.com/kitchenwitchuk Email: I have a personal blog www.tansyfiredragon.blogspot.co.uk Personal email:
