Praise for this book

“A Witch Alone is a guidebook for the modern witch, inviting us to remember that we already have exactly what we need to claim our power and wield our magic--and that is our innate sense of belonging in the world around us. . . . I strongly recommend following Marian's guidance to complete the studies outlined in this book over the span of thirteen moons. While the teachings may be simple, they are far from shallow.”
