Modern Witchcraft rooted in Wiccan traditions

Urban Witchcraft has been established to share knowledge about Witchcraft and Wiccan traditions with all who have a desire to learn.

We do not believe that being a witch requires hereditary links or that you must be initiated by a Coven to practice witchcraft.

The Wiccan path and the practice of Witchcraft are deeply personal and are based on personal choices.  We hope to share knowledge with you here so that you may forge your own path.

Urban Witchcraft and all associated content has been created by Luna Andromeda.  Luna has known she was a witch from a very young age and began studying and keeping a Grimoire at the age of 12.  This website has become her online Grimoire and she takes great pleasure in sharing the knowledge she has acquired (and remembered from past lives) with you.

The Grimoire is packed with free content about Wicca and Witchcraft.
