Resumen del Editor

Challenge your assumptions about witchcraft, Paganism, and spiritual seeking and learn how to craft your own magical path with this timely and entertaining exploration of what it means to practice witchcraft from the host of the Inciting a Riot podcast.

If you’ve ever wanted to burn your ex’s old stuff in a trash can while drinking wine with your friends and reading tarot cards under the light of the full moon, you already know that magic is an essential part of our human existence. But what is magic, anyway? And are witches real? Where do I start if I want to build a deeper, more personal magical practice? (I mean...can I just make shit up?)

Perfect for anyone who has wanted to get a little witchy but not known where to start, The Dabbler’s Guide to Witchcraft provides everything you need to discover more about modern witchcraft while forging your own magical path in a responsible and informed way. Fire Lyte takes us on a thoughtful, compulsively listenable, and provocative journey, addressing topics such as:

• Pop culture and witchcraft
• The intersection of science and spirituality
• Gatekeeping and inclusivity in the magical community
• “Good” vs “bad” magic (spoiler alert: there’s no such thing!)
• Why a coffee pot or Dutch oven is just as effective as a cauldron

He also provides 11 spell canvasses, perfect for beginners and practicing witches alike to expand their spell-casting repertoire.

Whether you’re just starting on your spiritual journey or recent events have inspired you to reexamine your current magical path, this humorous, practical, and insightful book provides a roadmap for anyone curious about enriching their practice.

A fantastic book for those starting on their path

Fire Lyte has a long history of calling light into the shadowy parts of witchcraft. This book is a must read for those taking their first steps and a great reminder for those that are already well into their path. Wisdom, practicality, and some fun spells too.

best witch book I've read so far!

I absolutely loved this book!! Fire Lyte has given modern witches a TRUE guide!

Can I give it six stars?

One of the best books on magic I've ever bought. Everything explained clearly, in detail, and masterfully. Even goes into ethics! And the author is a joy to listen to. Highly, highly recommended!

beginners or advanced will love

I have been listening to this book for a few days as I drive to work. I found the book to make me think & look at things in different ways. questioning what i have known & practiced for year. With the author reading the book, his dramatic flare made the book more enjoyable. At moments i was laughing while listening then thinking about information shared later on while work. This is definitely a book that I will listen to over & over.

I love the Intention and Articulate Message

I love the Intention and Articulate Message! This is a good book to help you think and guide you to seek Intentional clear knowledge.

Buy this book! A delight to listen to and very informative!

I’ve been on a one year journey so far looking into witchcraft and this is the book I wish I had found right away. It touches on so many topics while also being delightful to listen to! He mentions a Legally Blond and that’s when I knew I was in love.

Clever, kind, and highly educational!

I got this on a whim as a fledgling witch and absolutely love it! The narrative style felt like I was on a phone call with a friend having a fun conversation more than an educational guide.

I’ve read other books on witchcraft that felt very “written in stone” if you will, but the understanding and flexibility of the author made it feel approachable and friendly.

There were many times that I laughed out loud and had to rewind to hear again because my cackling blocked out the words. I definitely recommend for baby witches everywhere!

I want more!

I wish this author had more books out! As a sociologist, I can struggle with some topics. This book made it feel like I, too, can have a little magic in my life, without compromising my ethics.

Like Hot Tea With A Good Friend

Read to you by the author, a person with 10+ years of podcasting and public speaking comfortably under his belt, this is the book the witchcraft and pagan community has been waiting for. A long conversation with a good companion who has been on the road you are walking and can tell you about the terrain along the way, this book isn't just about witchcraft. It's about community, about communication, and about where to start looking to find the path you want to go down. How to be a student, not only of witchcraft, but of a wider world where your craft has context.

I would recommend this book to the curious, the credulous, the skeptic, and the scholar. I would recommend the audio specifically to those who want to feel a personal connection to their source. Fire Lyte has a way of speaking just to you, the listener, with a wink and a grin that makes you feel like you are on the inside of the circle, rather than on the outside looking in. He meets you on level ground with a down to earth humor and even some personal humility to say that it's okay to be unsteady on your feet. You'll get where you want to be. And here is how.

Magical book!

As a trans, disabled witch, a lot of books I come across are somewhat difficult for me to follow, as they aren’t inclusive and therefore require too much adaptation. In addition, a lot of books, as the author pointed out, have appropriative practices.

This book is great for new witches and experienced witches alike, I learned a handful of new things and I really appreciated the way the author touched on subjects that most books don’t cover. Highly recommend!
