Magic at the Crossroads: The Devil in Modern Witchcraft

Explore the Forbidden Path of the Ultimate Rebel

When you separate the religious dogma from the symbolic nature of the devil, who really is he? Kate Freuler presents the infamous figure as a symbol, not a deity, and reveals how to use this radical philosophy to strengthen yourself and your witchcraft.

The devil represents rebelling against all-powerful, oppressive systems of any kind. Through historical references, religious writings, and pop culture, this book explores the intersection between witchcraft and the rebel archetype. Freuler dispels common myths, providing examples from a variety of texts and personal stories about her own connection to this misunderstood symbol. She also shares a variety of hands-on rituals you can use for self-empowerment. From the devil's relationship with the old gods to the shadow work associated with him, Magic at the Crossroads invites you to see this controversial symbol with new eyes.
