About the author
Alaric Albertsson is the author of several practice-focused books on folk and Pagan traditions published by Llewellyn Publications. A Handbook of Saxon Sorcery & Magic covers Anglo-Saxon-derived practices including wyrdworking, rune craft, divination, and wortcunning, or herbal knowledge; To Walk a Pagan Path offers guidance for integrating earth-centered spirituality into everyday routines rather than only seasonal festivals; and Fortune in Your Hands: A Witch's Guide to Playing Card Divination and Magic applies numerology and elemental associations to an ordinary deck of playing cards as a divination tool. Across the three books the approach is practical and folk-tradition-based, drawing on historical Anglo-Saxon and broader European folk-magic sources rather than on modern eclectic or ceremonial systems. The books are catalogued under tarot-divination and witchcraft-wicca and are aimed at practicing Pagans and witches looking for grounded, tradition-specific techniques.
