Aeon Books Ltd, 2025

A beautifully illustrated handbook for urban witches that combines green witchcraft with city life. Rich with herbal and esoteric wisdom, this delightful and thoughtful guide provides an essential basis for magical practitioners living in cities to connect with nature, magic and community. This book is for urbanites who want nature and magic in their lives. Written by an experienced herbalist, who eats street weeds, talks to crows, casts spells, and brews potions; this book shows how to walk a magical path while riding the waves of urban life. Divided into three sections, The Green City Witch covers the lifestyle, knowledge, and techniques of real witches who love nature and city life. The lifestyle section covers how to work sustainably, grow roots in new towns, align with the seasons, and forage; all within city limits. The urban nature section contains an extensive directory that details how to engage with fascinating lifeforms that thrive in city buildings, streets, and parks. From spider plants to knotweed, and parakeets to earthworms, the plant, animal, and bug lore entries offer magical symbolism, folklore, foraging or care advice, and practical ways to weave them into daily life. The techniques section explains how to achieve magical goals with rituals, sigils, spells and charms, blood magic, shapeshifting, and divination, all with local, natural, sustainable materials. The Green City Witch is an invaluable resource for beginners and experienced magical practitioners alike, who wish to embrace the endless magical potential and gifts of urban nature.
