RitualCraft:
Creating Rites for Transformation and Celebration
Ritual is at the heart of our magickal practice. After decades of experience with all kinds of rituals, we decided to sum up what we’ve learned with this book… not a “recipe book” of prewritten rituals, but a “how-to” guide for creating your own unique and powerful rituals, specific to your needs and your strengths. How to create rites of passage, transformative rituals, personal rituals, and sabbat celebrations… all here.
You can change yourself and your world with personalized, effective, focused rituals. This book by renowned Witches Amber K and Azrael
Arynn K shows you how to craft powerful and meaningful rituals for your life, your family, and your spiritual community.
The authors share their vast knowledge of ritual planning and performance, providing a framework for creating your own successful rituals. They illustrate the principles of ritual crafting with stories from their own experiences as they explore a variety of topics, including rites of passage, esbats and sabbats, seasonal celebrations, rites for personal transformation, and rituals done simply for the fun of it.
You’ll find information on all aspects of ritual including correspondences, timing, environment, attitude, music, meditation, altars, tools, costumes, and safety. This comprehensive book also offers worksheets, outlines, suggested themes, sample rituals, and a guide to teaching others.
Whether you’re a beginner or seasoned practitioner, this comprehensive guide will help you take your own Witchcraft to new levels of significance, celebration, and personal transformation.

This is the book on ritual that we have been needing for years
This is the book on ritual that we have been needing for years. Whether you are new to ritual, or an adept ritualist, there is something in here for everybody. As a Witch, Priest, and teacher, I found this book to be a treasure. This book will not only teach you how to create rituals, but it also walks you through the parts of ritual, and prompts individuality in their creation. Plus, the authors share their own wonderful (and horrible) experiences, making this book down to earth and real. I actually sat down and read this book as if it were a novel! Thank you, Amber K and Azrael Arynn K, for this wonderful book.

Just an absolutely incredible resource
I just bought this book the other day and am almost halfway through it, though I expect to refer to it constantly until I wear it out and have to get a new copy…so I can refer to it constantly! It’s just an absolutely incredible resource for any Pagan and/or ritualist! The insight that the authors give into the practicalities of attaining and keeping positive group dynamics when leading a ritual with 2 or more is invaluable and the ideas, examples, and explanation of Younger Self given to help you create meaningful and transformative rituals for yourself, your coven/grove, open circles, or festival rituals make this book an amazing resource, no matter what your tradition (or religion for that matter).
