Witch by Lisa Lister

Witch

Unleashed. Untamed. Unapologetic.

By Lisa Lister

The witch is back. Although, to be fair, she never really went anywhere.

In Witch, author and third-generation witch Lisa Lister explores the history, symbolism, and enduring power of the witch while inviting readers to reclaim the word—and the personal power that comes with it. Part memoir, part history, and part practical guide, the book examines how the witch has been feared, misunderstood, suppressed, and ultimately rediscovered by generations of women.

Lister introduces readers to the foundations of a modern witchcraft practice, exploring intuition, spellwork, ritual, nature, the elements, lunar cycles, divination, and ancestral wisdom. Along the way, she encourages you to question inherited beliefs, reconnect with your instincts, and develop a spiritual practice rooted less in following someone else's rules and more in discovering what feels authentic to you.

At its heart, Witch is about reclamation—of intuition, individuality, creativity, sexuality, spirituality, and the parts of ourselves we've been taught to make smaller. Lister approaches witchcraft not simply as something you do, but as a way of reconnecting with your own innate wisdom and stepping more confidently into who you already are.
