The best way to expand and seek new knowledge is through reading. We can find today a huge selection of books about magic, books about witchcraft, books about Paganism, books about Wicca, books about mythology…
So, on this page, I will leave a list of the books I know, the ones I own and/or I intend to buy, in order to share what I read.
If you are interested in any of them, please use the links I provide for your region to buy them on Amazon. In addition to buying the books, you will collaborate with the Santuário Lunar and the authors – and paying nothing extra for it!
This edition includes the 3 books that were sold separately. It is a huge encyclopaedia of Goddesses and Heroines very well organized and full of information!
This book is a general overview of the mythology of several different cultures. I found it very interesting as it gives an introduction and some details of each. It’s worth reading!
The Mabinogion (Celtic/Welsh Creation Myth) US —– UK
Books about Fairy tales, Folktales, Folklore and stories
Many fairy tales and stories we know through folklore present us with magic in a practical way and we can learn a lot by reading each one. Below are books that compile tales, arts, and references for folklore study.
A Treasury of Irish Fairy and Folk Tales (Barnes & Noble edtion) US —– UK
Abecedário do Folclore Brasileiro (in Portuguese) US —– UK
Aesop’s Illustrated Fables (Barnes & Noble edition) US —– UK
Fairies by Yoshitaka Amano
This book is incredible, but today it is a rare find. It compiles many fairies and magical beings of Celtic and British cultures illustrated by Yoshitaka Amano. All of them contain stories!
This book is a collection of superstitions, spells, folklore, ghosts and customs of the British Islands. It even has the Wheel of the Year and its local variations!
I believe this book is fundamental to a better understanding of archetypes and symbols. Jung tackles everything in a fantastic way, and sure enough, this book will help you improve your practices one way or another.
All my work on Santuário Lunar is free and I like this way! If you enjoy my work, please buy me a coffee and get some more content using the button below! Thanks <3
