I always feel kinda bad that I don't usually have books to recommend on the subjects I study. I'm one of those "dive into science encyclopedias and obscure, unrelated articles and come out the other side with a whole other viewpoint on witchcraft" type of people. Stuff I can't really recommend other people read because it's... often too basic to be useful?? Stuff that needs extrapolation and personalization and Thought before it can be Used in a practical context.
Like, yeah, I read, but not really... witchcraft books. I have a handful for quick references, but most of what I've learned has been by trial and error, word of mouth, internet deep dives, and spirit work. The definition of self-taught-fuck-around-and-find-out. The things I feel most adept at (that I can/should share) are the ones for which I have little "further reading" -- because the "further reading" is "go out and talk to a river about it" or "cook a meal and see how it goes."
