Path of the Moonlit Hedge

Reviews / Votes

"Nathan's work offers practical, lifeway-building rituals, meditations, and tools to inspire and guide those interested in reclaiming the universal mantle of animist into their spiritual life...He beautifully brings us back to center to ponder the magic of the simple flame engulfing the candle wick and springing to life, mirroring, as above, so below, the universe and all their awe-inspiring mystery. He also does not skip over important issues such as systemic racism and the challenges faced by queer and trans people while walking this way. A wonderful work."-Rebecca Beyer, author of Wild Witchcraft

"Combining folklore, personal experience, several rabbit holes' worth of research, and a dash of popular culture, The Path of the Moonlit Hedge is unlike any other hedgewitchery book I've seen.
