The witchcraft community is rife with specialised terminology, encompassing everything from sabbat names like Beltane and Samhain to various ingredients, rituals, and tools. The Witch-ionary serves as a comprehensive reference guide, compiling all these terms in one convenient location. It's an invaluable resource for novice and fledgling witches embarking on their magical journey.
This exhaustive A-Z compendium of magical vocabulary elucidates a wide array of concepts. It clarifies the purpose of an "athame", explains the significance of Beltane and its associated celebrations, and demystifies why a spell book might be referred to as a book of shadows. As the witchcraft community continues to expand, there's an increasing demand for accessible resources to illuminate this enigmatic practice. The Witch-ionary perfectly fulfils this need, serving as an essential companion for aspiring and neophyte witches.
Interspersed throughout the book are ten straightforward ideas for rituals, spells, and practices, allowing readers to apply their newly acquired knowledge. These include a simple house blessing for a harmonious home, instructions for crafting anti-anxiety bath salts, and guidance on casting a magical circle.
Authored by Deb Robinson, the founder of the highly popular Witch Casket subscription box, The Witch-ionary distils years of expertise into an engaging and informative format. It acknowledges that today's witch leads a busy life, making it the perfect quick-reference guide for any witchcraft-related query. This definitive handbook is an indispensable resource for all beginner, baby, and novice witches seeking to expand their magical knowledge.

Sherlock & Pages is a little bookshop with a big heart. We are based in Frome, Somerset, England and curate lists of books in the areas we are passionate about – landscape, nature, history, and heritage. In short, the conservation of all we’ve inherited and all we are responsible to pass on. We aim to inspire and be inspired, to form a literary culture of care and passion about this precious planet we call home.
This is a shop where you might find something you haven’t seen before, and we like to think we’ve got something for everyone. We choose each of our books with care and for a reason. This is because our physical store is small but beautifully formed, holding only around 1200 titles at any one time. We try and recreate the feel of the shop wherever we are online, to reflect our niche categories and personality.
We have an active social media presence and aim to share our story with all our friends. The long-term goal is to build a hub for the books and writers we believe in. Who knows where our adventure will lead but by supporting Sherlock & Pages you’re helping us to add a further layer of magic to our little corner of the world. If you haven’t visited our physical store, one day you might just make a literary pilgrimage down to Somerset.
Our tagline is ‘Long Live the Hedgerows’ and our symbol a hibernating dormouse. If you want to support an independent with a unique character and which will share stories with you for years to come, then choose Sherlock & Pages. The world needs bookshops with soul, for they are ‘citadels of light.’
