Shadow Magick Compendium includes ritual meditations for exploring past experiences, dispelling harmful behavior patterns, and healing a fractured soul. Learn how to safely perform fasting and other methods of self-sacrifice, learn about crosscultural mysticism, get in touch with your spirit animal, take advantage of the dark moon and eclipses, and learn the history of the European Witch hunts. Discover methods of godform assumption, shamanic journeying, and the magick of the dying season. From astral journeying to sigils to dark herbs, you’ll find an array of magickal techniques to navigate the shadows and mysteries of yourself and the world at large.

Goth Craft: The Magickal Side of Dark Culture (Llewellyn Worldwide)
Raven Digitalis explores the dynamic intersection of dark culture and occultism in Goth Craft. The book introduces many kinds of Goths and Witches, and the philosophy of each. It covers the basics of magick and beyond, with special attention to blood magick, death magick, and necromancy. You’ll also learn how to proactively channel dark emotions, and express spirituality through clothing, hair, makeup and body modification. Also covered is vampyrism, BDSM, gender/sexuality issues, and the magickal-spiritual use of drugs. From working shadow magick to spellcasting on the dance floor, Goth Craft revels in the exciting convergence of two vital lifestyles.
I’ve also had the pleasure of being on these amazing magazines! (some are print rags, and others are e-zines! Click for more info.)
I also have articles in many Llewellyn annuals, including the Magical Almanac, the Witches’ Calendar, the Witches’ Companion, and the Spell-A-Day almanac! I also sometimes contribute to the magazines Dragon’s Blood, the Ninth Gate, newWitch, and Spellcraft. I also have some articles online at www.witchvox.com (if you don’t have an account with them, I highly recommend it!), www.llewellynjournal.com, and am interviewed on numerous websites (just Google “Raven Digitalis interview”). Cheers!!

Thanks, Midnightpanther

Raven,
I just wanted to say that your Goth Craft book is something that I never expected. It was both interesting and elegantly written, I’ve been goth for a while now and well I’ll say I’ve learned more from your book than by hanging around quote on quote Goths. It turns out that all they were was mall rats “Poser Goths” . Your book makes me want to learn all I can about Goth-ism and all its uniqueness! I would very much like to chat with you online if at all possible. All in all I wanted to say thank you and please continue writing your an inspiration to many people of the Gothic, pagan and goth-pagan followers.
Sincerely, MidnightRaven

Dearest Raven,
From the bottom of my heart I thankyou for the beautifully written Goth Craft book. I managed to find it in a bookshop in the UK, and haven’t been able to put it down for months! When I shared the words with my closest friends they all felt blessed by your words.
As you already know, Goth culture isn’t as massive in the UK as it is in the US, and is almost certainly frowned upon by a majority of the “normal” people in today’s society. Your words have helped us find a little hope, I humbly extend my gratitude for that.
If you would permit, I would love to write a more detailed letter, and send it through the mail.
Many blessings,
Natasha, 19, UK.

Great work!

In my family the practice of Craft is forbidden. When I read ‘Goth Craft’ I was so happy to find a book that didn’t put so much emphasis on materials. This book inspired more than you could ever know. Thanks.

Raven,
I have just recently bought the Goth Craft book and I have to say, when I went to the book store, I wasn’t planning on finding something so interesting, but I have been finding really good books recently. I have always been into the goth stuff. Some would call me a casual goth or a notgoth (depending on how you look at it because i am a manson fan but only have been for about a year). Your book has things I’ve been looking for for years! The truth, you have told it well. I’ve seen into the past and know what it holds. The gothic way of life is exactly how you’ve told it. You are wise beyond your years. I’ve read many a things to do with witchcraft. Very seldom did two things in two different books matched up to what I had, but you’ve written something that matches up. You’ve written the book I’ve been looking for. I hope to see more like this from you as i’ve been drawn to your work for some reason i do not know.

Greets- We are “friends” on myspace- I have been very interested in reading your book since I heard about it. I am 33 and have been wanting to write a “Gothic Wicca” book forever now. You inspire me, and I want to thank you! I would like to purchase a signed copy- so let me know when I can do that. Bright Blessings,
Rev. Korinne

Raven;
I checked out your upcoming book listed on Amazon.com
I will probably pre-order it soon; looks very interesting. I am a bit of a book-junkie if I find it interesting. Congrats on your book!
