A fantastically-constructed and informative witchy zine from Alex Wrekk, five star perzinester. You won't find spells or correspondences here, but the actual beliefs and whys of Alex's practice--what led her to secular witchcraft, building her practice while recovering from a shitty relationship, her DIY ethos and how punk life has shaped her practice.

There's a little crash course in the difference between Wicca and witchcraft, approaching witchcraft as someone with a religion/philosophy background, and her personal yearly calendar. Wards, everyday magic, setting boundaries, and how the internet has helped build her witchy life--this is the in-depth personal look at punk rock witchery you didn't know you needed. It's like sitting at the kitchen table with your cool friend who's good at explaining things and getting the questions sucked right out of your head and answered while also leaving you hungry to explore. Sprinkled with beautiful illustrations by one of my favorite illustrators too--this one's a gem. Grab it while we have it.

In Alex's words:

In 20 years of publishing Brainscan zine there is one incredibly important thing in my life that I have not written about, and that is witchcraft. I am a witch and I have been studying and practicing witchcraft for over a decade and it has been a very useful tool in my life and personal growth.

I also discuss some tips and a few resource for those that might be interested in exploring witchcraft for themselves.

This zine is 64 pages, quarter legal size (4.25" x 7"), typed, illustrated by Steve Larder (Rum Lad), and photocopied with spot color and brown cardstock covers!
