About the author
Amythyst Raine is the author of practice-oriented witchcraft guides published mainly by Moon Books and Dodona Books. "The Gray Witch's Grimoire" addresses a tradition she frames as neglected by books focused narrowly on protection magic, aiming to capture a fuller, less sanitized picture of gray witchcraft. "Green Witchcraft Grimoire: A Practical Resource for Making Your Own Spells, Rituals, and Recipes" focuses on nature-based practice, teaching readers to build their own spells and rituals from plants and other natural materials. Her earlier title, "Tarot for Grownups," applies a plainspoken, adult-oriented tone to tarot interpretation, addressing everyday concerns directly rather than through euphemism. Across the three books, Raine's voice is consistently informal and unvarnished, aimed at practitioners who want direct, practice-based instruction over academic or heavily symbolic treatments, with an emphasis on readers building their own material rather than following fixed scripts.
