Esoterica Books editorial team
Occult literature desk
To Ride a Silver Broomstick serves as a solid foundational text for those eager to demystify ancient techniques and apply them practically. However, it does not suit readers seeking purely historical analysis or those who prefer highly theoretical, academic approaches to esotericism without immediate application. It may also disappoint individuals looking for complex, multi-volume systems rather than a focused, contemporary manual. The audio format adds accessibility but lacks the visual aids of print for scrying instructions. Overall, it is a functional resource for hands-on practitioners, though its appeal remains narrow for those outside the specific realm of modern, empowered witchcraft practices.

📔 Questions to reflect on

  1. How can you apply the concept of 'bending time' to manifest your intentions and create more space for what truly matters?
  2. Reflect on a personal challenge you currently face. What 'magickal' (i.e., intentional and focused) steps can you take to 'sweep' it away or transform it?
  3. Consider the idea of 'drawing down the moon's energy.' How do you connect with natural cycles and what personal power do you feel when doing so?
