About the author
Courtney Weber is the author of several books on goddess lore and witchcraft published mainly by Weiser Books, including Brigid: History, Mystery, and Magick of the Celtic Goddess (2015), Hekate: Goddess of Witches (2021), Tarot for One: The Art of Reading for Yourself (2016), and Pentacle: The Shape of Power (2026). Her books on Brigid and Hekate trace the mythology, history, and devotional practice associated with each goddess, moving between ancient sources and contemporary Wiccan and pagan use. Tarot for One is a workbook aimed at solitary readers building their own practice with the cards, drawing on Weber's years of teaching tarot at symposia. Pentacle examines the history of the pentacle as a symbol, from earlier talismanic use to its place in modern witchcraft. Weber's books are written for readers already engaged with, or curious about, contemporary witchcraft and goddess-centered spirituality, combining historical background with devotional and practical material.
