This book is good for someone who's just starting and needs education, but I think "older" witches might already know everything included in this book. Just a few weeks ago I met Lisa Lister, the author of Witch: Unleashed. Untamed. Unapologetic, at a bloggers' party being run by the book's publisher, Hay House UK. In fact, the party was partly to launch this new book aimed at women wanting to learn how witchcraft can empower their lives.

Sí... y también no. Bruja de Lisa Lister es un libro que he leído mientras menstruaba, creo que estaba más "permeable" y en consonancia con mis emociones y por eso viví un abanico enorme de ellas. Bruja me ha encantado, y al mismo tiempo lo he aborrecido. Había momentos en los que me ponía los pelos de punta y lo amaba, y otros en los que lo quería quemar. Mi cara pasaba de la satisfacción a la ira en segundos. Igual os estáis preguntando el porqué. La primera parte del libro me pareció espectacular, hasta que me di cuenta de que eran las mismas ideas repetidas de forma diferente. Es decir, el libro tiene muchísima paja. Fácilmente le sobran unas 150 páginas -o más- (y por cierto, nombró su libro Love your lady landscape unas diez veces). O sea, es súper importante hablar del machismo, el patriarcado y la caza de brujas (el episodio más misógino de la historia). Pero pienso que todo podría haberse resumido más, simplemente eliminando ideas que no hacían más que reiterarse. She’s in touch with the dark. She knows how to be the witness, how to let things go and how to follow her own counsel. Most importantly, though, she questions EVERYTHING. This book will help women to remember, reconnect and reclaim the word 'witch' and its power. It explores the many different versions of witchcraft and their core principles and practices, and shares ancient wisdom made relevant for waking witches, including how Fourth, do NOT take period tips from this women. I'm highly convinced she doesn't know what she's talking about. The only legit tip might be the herbs and teas that help to soothe the cramps, but google it to make sure it's legit. Just in case. Safety first, after all.

You bleed for five days and don’t die: don’t tell me that doesn’t make you a superhero.” Reading this book was a struggle for me, and its scary to think there are people who believe this is what a modern witch needs to be like. This version of magic and spirituality is exclusive and alarming. This version of history is whitewashed and incomplete. This version of womanhood is reductive and offensive. Also she quotes Joss Whedon like he's not a terrible example of "male feminism" and that's honestly the last straw for me.

I support + guide women to navigate both the internal + external terrain of being a woman - physically, emotionally, psychologically + spiritually - through counsel, movement, ritual + ceremony.

I share about this rhythmic intelligence and the reflection of Mumma nature’s cycles on our own cyclic nature in my books, but a question I get asked a lot in response to this is: “how can I sync my cycle to the moon?” By which the person usually means: “how can I make it so that I ovulate with the full moon and bleed with the dark moon?” Yep, this is a THING. The good news is he's making it visible. For so long, this has been bubbling away - unreported and unseen - and now it's rising to the surface.
