This comprehensive manual combines text and illustrations to delve into the rich history of traditional genealogy, encompassing topics such as conducting research and constructing a family tree, as well as exploring the significance of cemeteries. Alongside these practical insights, Claire offers rituals, spells, and crafts drawn from her own personal practice, drawing upon the rich traditions of British and Slavic witchcraft. She has collaborated with fellow witches, including Codi Popovich and Marjorie from The Punk Priestess, to offer a broader and more enriched perspective.

Whether you are a seasoned witch or a newcomer to the spirit world, The Book of Ancestors empowers readers to embark on their own rituals and spells, delve into family history, and forge lasting connections with those who came before.

In conclusion, The Book of Ancestors is a must-have for anyone seeking to deepen their understanding of ancestral connections and tap into the rich tapestry of witchcraft. With its comprehensive content, stunning visuals, and empowering guidance, this guide offers a transformative experience for both seasoned practitioners and those embarking on their spiritual journey.
