Here are a list of various books and authors that are useful for future searches, as well as authors, books, and groups to avoid.
Recommended Books
- Three Books of Occult Philosphy or Magic by Agrippa, Heinrich Cornelius: One of the earliest books written about western occultism. Avoid the third book, it is about Kabbalah, which requires extensive knowledge of Jewish traditions to understand.
- Cunningham's Encyclopedia of Magical Herbs by Cunningham, Scott: Considered to be one of the definitive texts on magic herbs. Cunningham is one of the leading minds of Gardenian Wicca, so beware of a Eurocentric bent on his work.
