The Witch’s Kin (release date: May 1, 2024)
Gods&Radicals Press

In this book, Asa West offers a profoundly radical — yet deeply intuitive — framework for relating to all the others around us. Drawing from the deep wells of animist, scientific, and magical traditions, as well as her own deeply kind insights into human and other-than-human relations, The Witch’s Kin offers practical advice for being in the world with others.

Five Principles of Green Witchcraft
24 page zine, Gods&Radicals Press

In an era of climate change and late capitalism, when everything sacred is paved over or commodified, how do you attune yourself to the rhythms of nature? How do you listen for—and hear—the language of the land on which you live? How do you push your magical practice beyond rote rituals into true communion with the spirits around you?
