From the editor: The Gay Wicca Book is an introductory guide for gay men and women to gain a better understanding of this all-embracing pagan religion that welcomes everyone. In this unique approach to the Wiccan religion for the solitary practitioner or active member of a coven, Bruce K. Wilborn shares his own experience of coming out and explains how this discovery of Wicca was essential in his process of self-acceptance.

This book includes the history and philosophy of the Wiccan religion, as well as thorough descriptions of the tools, rituals, and spells of witchcraft. Wilborn breaks down the uses of the different herbs employed by witches. He also provides an explanation of the four major runic languages employed in witchcraft today: Theban, Anglo-Saxon, Germanic, and Celestial. The glossary makes understanding Wiccan terms simple and the extensive bibliography facilitates further study of the ideas discussed.

The Gay Wicca Book is written not only for the gays or lesbians searching for his or her place in a spiritual community, but also for heterosexuals looking for an accessible introduction to the Wiccan tradition.
