Aradia

<p>This wonderful book describes the creation according to Italian witch-lore. We also read about the witch-meeting or sabbath (treguenda) and it contains many original magical recipes like spells for love and good fortune. Diana is further connected to the Moon and the fairy world.</p><p>Where Leland’s <em>Etruscan Magic and Occult Remedies</em> deals with the entire pantheon of old Italian gods and nature spirits worshiped by the streghe <em>Aradia</em> is focused on Diana or Tana her daughter Aradia and Lucifer. Aradia the queen of the Italian witches or streghe is as Leland concludes: <em>‘evidently enough Herodias who was regarded in the beginning as associated with Diana as chief of the witches. This was not as I opine derived from the Herodias of the New Testament but from an earlier replica of Lilith bearing the same name.’ </em></p><p>VAMzzz Publishing revised this book with a Post Scriptum containing biographical info on Charles Godfrey Leland his witch-informant Maddalena and historical proof the witch-tradition is indeed linked to 2000 years of Diana worship.
