In which Cory makes a series of book recommendations for anyone interested in learning folk magic. These books are accessible, usually pretty well sourced, and give you practical work to do. Many work beyond the 101 level,t of, but all would be good places to get some basic groundwork in a few different shapes of folk magic.
Video inspired by videos “Witch Books for Absolute Beginners” by Thorn Mooney ( • Witch Books for the Ab... ) and “Beginner Witchcraft Books” by Hearthwitch ( • Beginner Witchcraft Bo... )

Paddy slades book is one of my favourites.

@cheyenneleighwhite3486 3 года назад

I would love a deeper dive into folklore! That's actually what I was looking for when I came across this video

@DanielECulbertson 3 года назад

I've been listening to hours and hours of the New World Witchery podcast while at work for the past week or two, and I'm really enjoying it! When I discovered that you had a RU-vid channel, I couldn't subscribe fast enough! I love the very grounded way that you (and Laine) approach your topics on the podcast. Your passion and interest in the topics you cover is infectious (in a good way, I promise!) and I look forward to spending many more hours listening to your podcast. I'm also using one of my Audible credits to purchase the Audible version of your book "New World Witchery". I was slightly disappointed to see that you didn't read it yourself, but after listening to the audio sample, I have to admit that Ramon De Ocampo sounds like a very pleasant second choice for the task! Also, if this RU-vid channel is going to be more active now, I am totally HERE FOR IT! Keep up the good work! 👏😀

I am reading your book now Corey, and I hope that from henceforward your book makes it on every practitioners recommendation list of folk magic books. It's literally a trove. Says so in the title, eh 😆 Thank you for sharing this video, and keep on with the shameless plugs. You deserve allll the credit! Oh, and you're rocking that black polish 🖤🤘

@foreverseeking1380 Год назад

Great list of books and I have some that you mentioned. I am in Canada and find myself buying books from Gemma Gary and so on. Thanks for sharing

@kiaradrake541 3 года назад

I love this! I’ve been a listener to the podcast for a couple years now and adore the work you do. I just ordered a copy of New World Witchery as well as your book on reading playing cards! If I could make a guest suggestion, I’d LOVE to hear you have a conversation with Kristoffer Hughes... He’s a Welsh Druid (he’s the Head of the Anglesey order of Druids) so I get, on the face of things, it might not make a lot of sense since he’s not “New World” but his love of folklore and legend makes up so much of his spiritual path I think a conversation between the both of you would be brilliant! He’s written a handful of books that have been pretty pivotal for me so I adore him but he also has such a great sense of humor and love for the past that I think you two geeking out over folklore from both sides of the Pond would be a real delight!

Yes to more videos like this! Yes to a deeper dive into folklore and folk magic and any other books you value! Question for you: what’s your take on work from Starr Casas, Orion Foxwood, and other authors of southern conjure?

@megane11222 2 года назад

Another wonderful video! I should have known since I have been listening to the podcast for years but I am playing catch-up with all the wonderful videos! *Also, NWW is one of, if not THE best book on folk magick to date* I very much stand by that!!! If you have not, do yourself the favor and buy Corey's book!!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤

@carolynncalvert8016 2 года назад

@juli6497 Год назад

I really appreciate your approach on the subject. I've ordered several books mentioned in this video. Thanks!

Lol!!! I love the shameless plugs! Thanks for taking the time to share other good jumping off books. I just picked your book up yesterday and am grateful to be able to hear your voice as I read it. I would also be interested in a video about intermediate books, even if I don’t ever get there (to intermediate status)! 😊 Hullo to Laine as well!! 👋

@tiredgoblinboi Год назад

I'll have to check your book out sometime! I related to that book fort picture because I have so many academic papers and academic books set aside for research. Long live book fort!

@coffeestitcher 2 года назад

I totally sent an email not realizing you had a RU-vid channel yet that answered my questions! I totally just loaded up my Amazon wishlist (I rarely order from them but it’s a great list keeper)!

@realmwatters2977 Год назад

I recommend

@shadypugsley5136 3 года назад

I love what I watched, I was expecting a mention of hexerei/braucherei/pow-wow though. Still love this though, keep up the good work.

@alexanderkaval7506 3 года назад

So glad you mentioned "The Cunning Man's Handbook", one of my favorites on the subject(and something I was thinking of before you mentioned it). Also if you've not had the opportunity I highly recommend Jake Richards "Doctoring The Devil" I think I'd go so far as to say I prefer it to "Backwoods Witchcraft".

@jedbrown1209 3 года назад

I'd be glad to see both

Thanks so much. Big fan, loving your book so far! I love learning about folklore in North America. I would love to learn more about authors and content creators that focus on American folklore in the Pacific Northwest. Thanks for all that you do, looking forward to seeing more.

@merri-toddwebster2473 3 года назад

I used to own Jambalaya--I bought it in a wimmin's bookstore and I use that spelling advisedly *g* In looking up a used copy, I discovered it's being re-released in a new edition at the end of this month!

@pinguchan1 3 года назад

What’s the book you mentioned as a supplement to Six Ways (that was not by Aidan?)

@newworldwitchery7149 3 года назад

I’m guessing Besom, Stang, & Sword by Orapello/Maguire? I think that’s who I mention and their book is a good next-step pairing for Wachter’s

@mdbarton1979 3 года назад

Hi Cory. Listened to lots of your podcasts but never saw your face before. Nice face :-)

@DawnMK2023 Год назад

Cunningham also wrote a lot of books on Wicca. And the one strict rule Wicca has is "just so long as it harms none, do what you will" Similar to the Christian golden rule of do unto others as you would have them do to you. So curses to harm wouldn't be in Cunningham's books.
