Modern Witchcraft Spell
If the world would ever be put into any position as to where the governments would burn all of the book in the world, I don’t know if I would want to be living in it. Books help us shape who we are and how we think. They help us have hope and escape to a wonderful world from that harsh reality we live in. They spark creativity, inspire many for great things, share knowledge from the past to the future, and so many more. Though, if I were to have only ten seconds to save one book, I would choose The Modern Witchcraft Spell Book: Your Complete Guide to Crafting and Casting Spells by Skye Alexander. The Modern Witchcraft Spell Book: Your Complete Guide to Crafting and Casting Spells is a spellbook that teaches how to use magic with different techniques, what all you would need, and bring out your inner powers.

Not only does it show you what to do for certain spells for certain situations, it also teaches you how to create your own. …show more content…

Though, magic isn’t like Hollywood portrays it. Witches aren’t green and we don’t eat children. Magic also doesn’t happen instantly and usually doesn’t have glitter. The amazing thing of magic, though, is that you don’t need a spell for everything. You just have to put out the energies you wish for to the universe, or gods and goddesses. Though, you could use specific herbs or stones to enhance the energy and either draw or repel energies and wants. Although a book of shadows is not necessary, it is an amazing place to

    Books give the world knowledge. They tell the truths that are behind the myths and legends. Paper knowledge that shows the reality of the world, whether people want to know said realities or not.

    The Catholic Church was steeped in traditional thinking in regards to religion as well as life. They felt that no one was above the church and that to say otherwise was blasphemy. It was for this view that the church stopped supporting humanism. They felt that it was putting too much emphasis on man and not enough on God. (Mark Kishlansky, 2008) The views of the Catholic Church became more radical as they began their witch hunt making it policy for the “rectors of the Church and those who communicate the people are enjoined to take the utmost care when they communicate women that the mouth shall be well open and the tongue thrust…

    The elite perspective is the perspective of those in power. It may be the perspective of the monarchy but it may also be administrative/judicial or that of the church. Popular conceptions are those held by the common people. These two perspectives were not very distinctive because the elite and common people did not live completely separate lives from one another – there was some mixing of culture, and thus there were many similarities in the conceptions held. The main differences between the popular and elite beliefs were regarding the type of accusation of witchcraft: the common people tended to make accusations of maleficium whereas the elites made accusations based on diabolism. Maleficium is magic that is controlled by the person themselves; "It is the performance of harmful deeds by means of some sort of extraordinary, mysterious, occult, preternatural or supernatural power" (p. 4 Levack). Diabolism is worshipping the devil: when a witch acquires his or her powers from making a pact with the devil and often then pays some sort of homage (p. 8 Levack).…

    Many of these classic stories have been banned because of sexual references, racial slurs, religious intolerance, or supposed witchcraft promotion. Although some may consider these books controversial or inappropriate, many English classes have required their students to read these books (About banned). It should be believed that even controversial books could ultimately boost, not deter, our educational wealth. Book banning should be opposed for three main reasons: education should be open to everyone, citizens should have access to the press, and, lastly, parents should monitor what their own children read and not what other children can obtain. For these reasons, I conclude that the government should play no role in what books any age group can obtain.…

    Witchcraft during the Renaissance opened new cognitive ideas about the supernatural for the people of that time. The printing press, one of the tools responsible for learning back then, was invented by a witch of the Renaissance; Johannes Gutenberg. With this new invention, books and bibles containing religion were printed. Because of this, it led to the witch trials of the 15th and 16th centuries. With the curiosity of the renaissance, astrology, alchemy, and magic became widely discussed and furthered these trials. To prevent witchcraft during the reign of Queen Elizabeth I, the 1562 Elizabethan Witchcraft Act was passed.…

    Witch persecution was rife throughout seventeenth century Europe. It stemmed from earlier centuries and carried the belief that witches were associated with evil and had made a pact with the devil and agreed to worship him. They were thought to have the power to harm humans, plants, crops, and animals. However, to offer misogyny as a leading explanation for witchcraft accusations would not be completely accurate. Although misogyny was affiliated with a minority of witchcraft accusations against women, that is not to say that males were excluded from such claims nor does it exclude the fact that many of the claims against the accused came from other females. For many, the idea of witchcraft was a means of explaining the unexpected nature of disease, death and it slowly trickled into being associated with common happenings such as crop failure and economic difficulties and personal grievances.…

    If one were to mention the concept of witchcraft, certain notions would instantaneously come to mind. For some, witchcraft stirs ideas of grotesque old crones draped in ill-fitting garments riding a broom across the heavens; oftentimes, these figures are represented with a common black cat to serve as their familiar. Likewise, others may think of witchcraft in terms of Hollywood blockbuster films such as The Wizard of Oz or perhaps even The Witches of Eastwick. As fanciful and alluring as these interpretations of witchcraft may be, they are at best a poor parody for the historical realities of the fear inspired by witches and the cruelties that this fear unleashed, particularly in Colonial British America during the 17th and 18th centuries.…

    Accompanying and following the Renaissance “rebirth” during the fourteenth through sixteenth centuries and supplementing the Protestant and Catholic Reformations, the persecution of individuals as witches in Europe reached its zenith during the sixteenth century. Countless people, women and men alike, were accused of witchcraft, although this scale was tipped significantly toward poor, old women whose husbands’ had low wage work. The notion of witchcraft appealed to and was possible at the time to the general public because such occurrences as “mysterious disappearances” or “Satanic luck” necessitated explanations. These events were thus attributed to “servants of the Devil,” or witches, who were supposedly possessed to bend to Satan’s will as stated my Luther. Luther’s bias was towards the bible because he was a religious leader; therefor he believed what it said, which was that witches existed. Many accused witches were tortured until they either admitted, like Walpurga Hausmannin, or were killed from torture. Hausmannin’s bias was towards women because she was one, and she was very skeptical towards all the women being killed. No one was safe, as even mayors councilors and associate judges were persecuted. The witch-hunting excitement of the period resulted from religious, individual, societal, and sociological fears and interests prevalent during the time frame.…
