Review

"Talking the archetype of the wise-woman and various themes from the modern witchcraft revival, Zoë Howe lifts them to a refreshing guide for a magical life. Encouraging us to forge our own way guided by intuition, imagination, heritage, and preferences, this is both personal magical primer and an enchanting self-blossoming guide. There are spells and tips and simple positive practices that may change our lives with insights and observations and what the author calls 'witchful thinking.' We are led to consider our own extramundane connections and become aligned with them, to benefit ourselves and the wider community, letting magic flow into the real world of here and now."―Caroline Wise, international presenter on the goddess, folklore, and Mythic London and coeditor of The Secret Lore of London

"Witchful Thinking is here to inform and inspire: let the Rock-n-Roll witch take you on a magical tour through the practices that can make your life sparkle. With methods based on her own experiences, Howe invites in other practitioners to offer expert advice, too. Turn up the music and make some magic."― Dr. Kate Laity, author of White Rabbit
