HEDGE WITCH
Published by Robert Hale
August 1992
192 pages
Written in the form of letters from an experienced witch to her two apprentices, solitary witchcraft is offered, not as a substitute for coven worship, but as a fulfilling lifestyle in its own right.
This book provides spells for all the key festivals of the witch's calendar - describing the therapeutic powers of trancework and herbalism and outlining the Pagan approach to finding a partner. Rae Beth explains the importance of the Goddess and her consort, the Horned God, as sources of spiritual strength and worship. She extols the feminine principles of healing and regeneration as well as attacking greed and self-interest which jeopardize the planet's very future.
Her lyrical letters, accompanied by pen-and-ink sketches, bring the reader to an understanding of the solitary witch's lifestyle and beliefs.

LAMP OF THE GODDESS
Published by Robert Hale
February 2001
160 pages
At the dawn of a new era we are drawn to modern Goddess spirituality. Rae Beth feels the world can change by sharing our personal spiritual experiences with each other. She has gone within herself for this book of recollections, inner guidance and ancient teachings (which was originally published as Reincarnation and the Dark Goddess).
She explains individual reincarnation as a microcosm of Earth's great cycles of existence and as a means of developing the love and wisdom needed to manifest the true beauty of the spirit realm. Along with instructions for recalling past lives and developing psychic skills, she gives descriptions of the Otherworld (where we go between lives) as the land of the Dark Goddess - the Queen of the Dead.
This is not a fearsome place, but a joyful spirit land where healing flows, whether we approach it from its peripheries in dreams, in meditation, or between incarnations. Rae Beth also includes thoughtful interpretations of various myths of the Goddess in her many aspects - Isis, Kali, Mary Magdalene, Persephone and Tiamat - to name but a few. "Lamp of the Goddess" looks at reincarnation from the viewpoint of a present-day priestess who honours the Deep Feminine, or the Goddess, as Mother of Souls, as well as the Earth Mother of physical existence. This sharing vision is relevant to us all, in our process of discovery and rebirth.

Copies of this book sometimes appear for sale at high prices. If you are not an avid collector, just get a copy of Lamp Of The Goddess, it's the same book, albeit with what I consider to be an inferior front cover. If you must have the lady with the cauldron, check prices of the US version (below) of Lamp Of The Goddess. It's the same book.

THE HEDGE WITCH'S WAY
Published by Robert Hale
January 2003 (paperback)
176 pages
Here is a guide to the magical spirituality of the hedge witch, which describes a path that is profound and yet simple - uncluttered by complex ritual, a matter of the heart. The hedge witch is a solitary witch and natural mystic who practises wildwood mysticism, so called because it is the knowledge at the root of the tree of witchcraft. Explained in detail are the witch's prayers, spell-casting and communication with spirits and faeries, including those spirits travelling in the three realms of the magical otherworld. The values and ethics of this most ancient tradition may surprise and delight with their blend of common sense, compassion and wildness. (It is not a spiritual way for conformists!) This book opens the door to all those who feel they are natural witches but are, as yet, uninstructed. The Hedge Witch's Way is a guide for witches of either gender - potential wisewomen or wisemen - that presents the faerie-led practices of our ancestors, in a modern-day context.

Village wisewomen and men, the community's witches, have always helped to heal wounded lives. When disaster strikes, such as serious illness or some kind of abuse or loss, or when we're struggling through things such as divorce or family conflict, today's hedge witchcraft can still give us the means to help ourselves or others. There are, for example, spells to banish the spirits of cruelty or injustice. There are ways of countering the ill effects of spiteful thoughts which others may hold about us. We can rebuild our sense of ourselves by magic that holds us true to our real life purpose, throughout any crisis. What is presented here is not superficial and not a shortcut. Rather, it is a powerful process, a method which can be adapted to any situation where help may be needed.

THE NINE MAGICAL WAYS - eBOOK (Kindle and PDF)
Published by Hexenpress
December 2005 (eBook)
52 pages
Author's Description:
Anyone can do magic, once they know how, just as anyone learn to cook, even if not quite so well as an expert chef. An understanding of magic belongs to us all and is a birthright. Our ancestors were well aware of this. Much as they seem to have respected the experts, their wisewomen or shamanic healers (the people who had made a profound study of magic and undergone initiations into its deeper mysteries) they knew that there are some everyday uses of magic, to which all have access. In every ancient culture, right from Australia to America, Europe and everywhere else as well, they knew about natural magic and used it for many purposes. This is not because most of our ancestors were superstitious fools, and lacking in knowledge, but because they knew some things rather better than we do now.

The Green Hedge Witch
Published by Robert Hale
June 2009
176 pages
Author's Description:
Tells of a hedge witchcraft in which we may work in hedgerows or on other boundaries, treating them as symbolic borders between the human everyday world and the domains of elves, nature spirits and other otherworldly presences. In this way we achieve communion with those from more subtle dimensions and can join our magic with theirs, to the benefit of all, creating new harmony.
There is actually nothing new in these ideas. They are based on the work of the ancient Northern European Hagazissa, the 'Hedge-sitter', one who worked on the boundary between the human community and that of spirits to promote harmony between wild areas (such as a forest) and cultivated human lands (such as a farm or settlement) so that each could be sound and healthy.
Publisher's Description
Rae Beth, author of the bestselling "Hedge Witch", brings us a whole new world of witchcraft and magic in her new book, "The Green Hedge Witch". The author blends the ancient tradition of wildwood mysticism with a subject that is supremely relevant for our modern day lives - the environment. Concerns about our world and environment have never been stronger, and through a mixture of spirit travelling, spells, wands, broomsticks and familiars, the author shows us how we can not only heal the human relationship with the rest of nature, but also to help bring evolution to the human concepts of nature. A book for both budding spell-casters and experienced workers as well, "The Green Hedge Witch" teaches how we can develop a relationship with those spirit presences who dwell in or can be psychically contacted through nature.

The spirituality of a fey person may be quite anarchic and entirely private, having no basis in any organised religion. So it can be a secret spirituality that informs the fey type and this may be largely experiential. It has often been perceived as a threat by people who like ideas to be tied down and under control, and by the organisations that such people have created.
Meanwhile, in much of today's world, fey people have been throughly marginalized. In this book, Rae Beth suggests ways in which we might understand Otherworldly realities without abandoning commonsense. Drawing upon her knowledge of traditional faerie lore, she shows how fey perceptions and psychic skills can serve and enhance life.
Rae Beth is a hedge witch and wildwood mystic. Her books on natural magic and spirituality are widely acclaimed, and she is regarded as an authority on witchcraft. She aims to assist people to meet with spirits and the faerie realms. Rae is a psychic counsellor, and her best-selling works include The Hedge Witch, The Hedge Witch's Way and Spellcraft for Hedge Witches.
