Book exerpt:
The Forest was alive with celebration as preparations were made. A clearing near a stream was chosen as the perfect place, flower garlands were carefully strung, and the ground picked clean of sharp rocks or twigs. The Green Prince was given a special cloak of oak leaves and ivy, flowers were hung in his antlers, and people's fur and feathers were washed extra carefully. The birds made sure that the clouds were especially friendly today, and the sun was invited.
People came from all over the Forest – foxes and bears and owls and chipmunks and robins and squirrels and wolves and skunks and snakes and crows and deer and magpies and rabbits and bobcats and spiders and many more, all gathered in the clearing to watch the wedding.

Every so often, a Coven decides it's time to open its' doors to prospective new students, to teach them about WitchCraft. The Priest and Priestess assemble a fairly coherent group of students, and search through their books for relevant and important subject matter. Many would-be teachers freeze up at this point: "What should I cover first? What do I put emphasis on?!" Part One studies the history, philosophy, and ethics of the Craft, the significance of the Wiccan calendar and more. Topics in Part One include "The History of the Craft", "Facets of Spirituality", and "Understanding Sacred Sexuality". Part Two examines the inner workings of a coven, the meaning and practice of a Wiccan ritual, the philosophy and structure of magick, elements of spellcrafting and more. Topics covered include "Reality and Magickal Perception", "Ritual Principles and Etiquette", and "Magick and Responsibility". Lessons include study questions, interactive classroom modules and suggested additional reading along with the lesson text, and a Final Exam closes out each semester. Every lesson in the 450-page book can be used for individual study.
