Buckland's Book of Saxon Witchcraft was one of the first books to explore Wicca from a solitary perspective. Originally written 30 years ago to correct abuses he saw occurring in covens, Buckland offered Wiccan seekers an introductory text on Saxon witchcraft or Seax-Wicca, which can be practiced alone. Buckland presents meticulously researched information on the time-honored tradition of Saxon witchcraft. He writes cogently and informatively about the history, mythology, spiritual practices, and witchcraft of Saxon England. Buckland's Book of Saxon Witchcraft includes everything the solitary witch needs to practice Seax-Wicca, including: Descriptions of the Saxon deities and explanations of their primary beliefs An introduction to the magical runic Saxon alphabet A selection of original Pagan songs A selection of Seax-Wiccan recipes for intoxicants Instructions for initiation ceremonies, the eight Sabbats, marriage, birth, and death rites An explanation of the art and practice of Saxon Galdra or magic and the divination and herbal lore used for protection, love potions, and healing The Seax-Wicca Rite of Self-Dedication, which allows individuals to form their own covens and initiate themselves into the Craft An indispensable handbook for solitary witches or for witches in covens who want to explore Saxon witchcraft. Originally published as The Tree: The Complete Book of Saxon Witchcraft, this edition offers a new introduction by the author to guide a new generation of witches into the art and practice of Seax-Wicca.

What happens after we die? This question has puzzled humankind for thousands of years. Many religions have specific beliefs about life after death, but belief is not based on fact. Now, Ray Buckland, a renowned authority on the occult, reveals the secrets of the afterlife in The Truth About Spirit Communication. In this book you will find out what mediums are doing to contact the spirits of departed friends and relatives. You will learn about the different types of mediums and how their abilities differ from one another. You will even learn about the most unusual and rarest type of medium, the physical medium, who may actually produce sounds or objects from the spirit world. If you are interested in learning how to directly communicate with spirits, this book will show you how you can become your own medium. You'll learn beginning exercises and then specific techniques, such as how to use a talking board (such as a Ouija board), table tipping, and even automatic writing. Unfortunately, there have been cases of fraudulent mediums. This book details when and where fraud has occurred and what to look for, so you can be assured that a medium is genuine. People have been communicating with spirits since the dawn of human civilization. It is not "crazy" to be curious about the spirit world. In fact, it is said that when Thomas Edison died, he had been working on a device designed to allow people to communicate with the dead. Perhaps someday such a device will be perfected, but until then, The Truth About Spirit Communication is your guide to this fascinating practice.
