Aradia Gospel of the Witches by Charles G. Leland
Long before it had a name, the old religion had a gospel.
First set down in 1899, Aradia, or the Gospel of the Witches carries the words given to American folklorist Charles Leland by an Italian strega, a keeper of the old ways, passed hand to hand through generations of hidden practice.
Within its pages are Diana, Queen of the Witches, and her daughter Aradia, sent to earth to teach the oppressed the arts of the old religion: invocations, blessings, and the sacred rites of the moon.
This is the text Gerald Gardner turned to when he shaped modern Wicca; the Charge of the Goddess spoken in circles today traces its roots straight back to these pages. To hold this book is to hold a thread reaching back through centuries of witches who kept the old ways alive in secret, and a rite of passage for anyone walking the path, as well as a radiant addition to any altar, shelf, or coven library.
