Since 1971, The Witches' Almanac has been the source of fun, wisdom, trivia and magical lore for hundreds of thousands of readers throughout the world. It includes information related to the annual Moon Calendar (weather forecasts and oroscopes), as well as legends, rituals, herbal secrets, interviews, mystic incantations and many a curious tale of good and evil. Although it is an annual publication, only about 15 percent of the content is time sensitive. 2013's theme is the Wisdom of the Moon. Read about Amazonian dolphins, neem trees, tomfoolery and a Festival of Fools, Basque moon myths, Arachne weaving and the legendary Pied Piper. Founded in 1971 by Elizabeth Pepper, the art director of Gourmet magazine for many years, The Witches' Almanac is a witty, literate and sophisticated publication that appeals to general readers as well as hard-core Wiccans. At one level, it is a pop reference that will fascinate anyone interested in folklore, mythology and culture, but, at another, it is the most sophisticated and wide-ranging annual guide for the Wiccan enthusiast.
