Astrology and Wicca, Magick

It is our loss that we neglect the role of ceremonial magick in astrology. Many of us are decidedly uneasy with magick, but it is helpful to remember that William Lilly (pictured above), the great medieval English astrologer, had previously been a magician. (It's also helpful to remember that he burned his magickal materials before taking up astrology full time.) Also realize that Horary Astrology has heavy, if unstated, magickal overtones.

	THE WITCH'S CIRCLE, Rituals & Craft of the Cosmic Muse - Maria Kay Simms. $19.95 By the author of Dial Detective, this is a Wiccan book of shadows. The Wiccan way, the essential relationship of Goddess & God, positive magick, astrology & ritual, rituals for the eight sabbaths, full moon rituals for a full year, special rituals, hints & helps, more. Forms of ceremonial magic seem to underlay much of western (and Vedic) astrology & we may be the poorer for ignoring it. 467 pages including bibliography, glossary and index. Llewellyn, paper.
