Top Notch Beginner Friendly Witchcraft Books
1. Hoodoo Bible Magic: Sacred Secrets of Scriptural Sorcery
by Miss Michaele, Professor Charles Porterfield
So it’s been said that the Bible is the oldest spell book on the planet. I had been practicing magic for nearly 20 years when I first came across a worker. Who very much like myself, practices a wide range of magics.
So when she recommended this book in one of her talks, I jumped on it. Money spells, love spells, protection spells, healing, success works, and on and on. There is little to nothing this book doesn’t give you works that will jump-start your magical path.
If you haven’t used the Bible in your works yet, you’re missing out. Hoodoo bible magic walks you through the basics you need to know, how to use the scriptures included, and sorted by need. So, with that being said, you need to add this little wonder work to your library ASAP!
2. Hoodoo Herb and Root Magic: A Materia Magica of African-American Conjure
One of the best pieces of advice I can give to those starting on their witchcraft path is to learn the old ways regarding herbs and roots. Catherine’s book does an excellent job of teaching the old-school meanings and uses of the herbs, roots, and minerals all around us.
This work covers over 500 herbs, roots, minerals, and different hoodoo items used in crafting. While this book is by no means exhausting on the subject it covers a HUGE chunk of information, that I can promise you’ve never heard before.
Catherine walks you through crafting mojo bags, spiritual baths, crafting your incense, and over 750 spells. Working tricks, traditional spells, witchcraft for beginners chants, magical recipes, along with illustrations. This little wonder book will not lead you astray.
3. Power of the Psalms
By- Anna Riva
The power of psalms is a work that anyone who crafts spells should have on standby just in case. It can be a little challenging to understand and use at first but take your time with it and you’ll be flipping to and fro in no time.
The book covers a multitude of subjects and needs, from daily thanks prayers to psalms for work, love, business, health, healing, and success. So even though this may be an older work, it is still one that should grace your witchy shelves.
So if you practice witchcraft for beginners spells candle magic, of any kind, you need to keep this on hand. A lot can be done with a white candle and a psalm.
4. The Secret of Numbers Revealed: The Magic Power of Numbers
So, this is one of those books that you think you’ll never have a use for and somehow it ends up begin a witchcraft essentials for beginners go to. The book covers a multitude of subjects, all based on numerology.
See how your name and date of birth reveal your character, or how to use numbers to tell fortunes. How to pick names and numbers for luck in business, creativity, luck, love, etc. How to pick winning lottery numbers, the hidden definitions of numbers, and so on.
This work is best digested in stages, but it is most definitely worth the read and the space on your bookshelves.
5. A Deck of Spells: Hoodoo Playing Card Magic in Rootwork and Conjure
by Charles Porterfield (Author), Christy Porterfield
I have been intrigued by playing cards since I was little. So imagine my shock and happiness when I was gifted this awesome little book one birthday. The amount of information that Professor Porterfield has crammed into this book is simply amazing. It also has a nice little section on witchcraft curses for beginners, along with many others.
The history of playing cards, a half dozen different ways and meanings of reading fortunes with playing cards. 100’s of spells, charms, and workings. If throwing bones, reading tarot, or tea leaves is your thing, then you MUST add this work to your library.
Professor Porterfield does an amazing job in all his works to help you feel like a valued student, and draw you into his world. Teaching, but not looking down his nose at you, or making you feel like an invader, no matter you’re skill or experience level.
6. Hoodoo Spiritual Baths: Cleansing Conjure with Washes and Waters
7. Cursing and Crossing: Hoodoo Spells to Torment, Jinx, and Take Revenge On Your Enemies
by Miss Aida (Author), Catherine Yronwode
Sometimes a witch has gotta do what a witch has gotta do. While I do not encourage those just starting their path to beginner witchcraft books to start throwing hexes and curses around, it is wise to have a trustworthy book on such needs at hand should you need it.
Enter Miss Aida’s work on just such a thing. Hard-hitting, down-and-dirty work that’ll hit them where it hurts. Miss Aida covers everything in this work, dolls, coffin boxes, freezer spells, oils, powders, how to properly use pins, needles, feces, chamber lye, graveyard dirt, and on and on.
