"Inspires socially conscious magical practitioners to harness the power of our imaginations and collective will, reminding us where true power really resides: in the hands of the people."--Amanda Yates Garcia, the Oracle of Los Angeles Use Magic to Make the World a Better Place Today From the creator of the Spell to Bind Donald Trump and All Those Who Abet Him The resistance is growing, and it needs your help. This book provides spells and rituals designed to help you put your magical will to work to create a more just and equitable world. These magical workings can be used by activists of any spiritual or religious background. With ideas for altars, meditations, community organizing, self-care, and more, Magic for the Resistanceoffers a toolkit for magical people or first-time spellcasters who want to manifest social justice, equality, and peace. If you've ever felt disillusioned or burned out because of the slow progress of social change, this magical work can nurture and support you, sharpening your focus and resolve for more sustained, long-term activism. In addition to influencing the outside world, these rituals bring you in closer alignment with your higher spiritual consciousness--because transforming your society begins with transforming yourself. Includes spells for: Racial justice Women's rights LGBTQ+ rights Antifascism Environmentalism Immigration Refugee support Nonviolence Praise: "Readers interested in the power of magic and dismayed by the tumultuous current political moment will want to give this enticing guide a look."--Publishers Weekly "Magic for the Resistanceis a rabble-rousing battle cry for magical thinkers everywhere."--Amanda Yates Garcia, the Oracle of Los Angeles "This wonderfully engaging guide--one part history, one part grimoire--demonstrates how and why to combine spell work and activism to heal our society and get rid of our heel."--Mitch Horowitz, PEN Award-winning author of Occult America "This is rare combination of a how-to book that also gives a solid historical and cultural perspective on the uses of magic to resist political oppression. Sound and well-grounded both factually and magically, it's also well written and well informed."--Sabina Magliocco, Professor of Anthropology, University of British Columbia "Vote. Organize. March. Protest. Boycott. Resist. Be an activist for your beliefs. Then...put your magic where your mouth is! You might want to start by reading Magic for the Resistance."--Lon Milo DuQuette, author of Low Magick "Magic for the Resistanceis a fascinating look at how the occult arts can be used to promote progressive politics and social change."--Gary Lachman, author of Dark Star Rising: Magick and Power in the Age of Trump "An eminently necessary guidebook for the magic-workers of our time."--David Salisbury, author of A Mystic Guide to Cleansing & Clearing "This book empowers the reader to liberate stagnancy and facilitate positive change, to feel/be heard, and to learn from obstacles and challenges that are encountered."--Fiona Horne, author of Witch "Michael Hughes has drawn on his erudition as well as his quarter-century of experience as a practicing magician to offer a complete manual of 'Warrior Magic' in the service of justice."--Leonard George, PhD, author of Crimes of Perception  … (plus d'informations)

If I say straight off that there are spells in this book for hexing the NRA, invoking divine protection for immigrants, protecting polling places, and for justice after an African American has been killed extrajudicially by the police, this may be all some of you need to know to decide if you want to read this book.

For others reading this review, I can tell you that Hughes explains things clearly, and I thought the book was just plain interesting to read, even if you don't plan to do a single spell. He discusses the ethics of working magic against others and the importance of precise language when phrasing a spell. He doesn't stick to one tradition exclusively, and he encourages the reader to alter spells to make them more meaningful to them. The spells do have ingredients, but none of them looked all that expensive, and Hughes often suggests possible substitutions. There are chapters on the history of using magic to resist oppression, on taking care of yourself, on the development of the Bind Trump spell, finding fellow magical activists, and how to do magic. Should you be interested in adding magic to your resistance activities, this would be a good source to consult. ( )
