The GLAM Witch

A Magical Manifesto of Empowerment with the Great Lilithian Arcane Mysteries

Lilith has been feared, worshipped, analyzed, and dissected by many, yet she remains an enigma cloaked in a riddle of witchcraft. Today, she has found a place of elevation as a quintessential goddess in an array of occult practices, revered for her fierce independence, carnal appetite, and thirst for equality.

THE GLAM WITCH plants the practice of modern witchcraft in Lilith’s garden of glittery fruit. Laid out over a sparkling assemblage of chapters, a modern mystic will explore the theory, practice, and lifestyle of the Great Lilithian Arcane Mysteries (GLAM). Here you will learn:

Lilith’s story and how to apply her archetype to a magical path.
Open your third eye to intuition with signs and synchronicity.
Discover Lilith’s astrological significance to help navigate the shadow self.
Witch-craft a glamour poppet for attraction and beauty.
Embrace your sexuality to harness power through orgasm.
Neutralize negativity with the application of bitchcraft.

Loaded with spells and rituals to cultivate confidence, sizzle with sensuality, and stand up to adversity, THE GLAM WITCH is a guide to spiritual empowerment and establishing unapologetic authenticity through magic.

PRAISE FOR THE GLAM WITCH

“Potent and provocative!” —Fiona Horne, author of The Art of Witch and Witch: A Magickal Journey

“I must admit, I didn’t think a book entitled The GLAM Witch was going to be my thing. Just as the author Michael Herkes didn’t quite resonate with traditional Wicca, I’ve never found myself drawn to glamour and fascination magick. So imagine my surprise when he dispels that notion right off and presents a profoundly rich tradition based upon the dark goddess Lilith. It’s wonderful when expectations are smashed and you see things in a new light, and The GLAM Witch certainly does that. Filled with great research, first hand experience, devotion, art, and of course still some glamour, he presents it in a fun, modern accessible style, but with a depth and sincerity that is often missing in modern popular books. I particularly liked the astrological approach to the three forms of Lilith.” —Christopher Penczak, author of the Temple of Witchcraft series and Gay Witchcraft

“Articulate, exciting, and fresh! A glorious work about Lilith and her goddess glamour!” —Deborah Castellano, author of Glamour Magic

“Michael Herkes’ debut book, The GLAM Witch, is a clever, well-written, and truly brilliant piece of work. I applaud the author’s dedication to detail (no stone is left unturned), and his humble reverence toward the Great Goddess in her form of Lilith: an often misunderstood force of nature — and ourselves. This is a book for those seeking self-empowerment, self-love, and a knowledge of ancient and modern magical practice.” —Raven Digitalis, author of Esoteric Empathy and Shadow Magick Compendium

“The GLAM Witch is an unapologetic exploration of deep magic and spirituality. Michael Herkes creates an enchanted safe-space for us to explore our flaws, kinks, creative callings, and our truth. His coming of age story as a queer witch guided by the ancient wisdom of Lilith is a reminder that we’re all on our own journey of discovery . . . magic is available for all of us no matter who you are, where you find yourself, or how you wish to show up! Herkes deep dives into the historical significance of Lilith, her evolving influence, and his personal initiation of empowerment through her tutelage. You can feel Herkes’ wisdom and support throughout the book . . . encouraging you to live your truth and offering a practical foundation for putting magic into practice! This is a must read for the Femme mystic, the rebel seeker, and anyone wishing to walk the path of the self-made witch!” —Shaheen Miro, author and creator of The Lunar Nomad Oracle, co-author of Tarot for Troubled Times

“I LOVE this book. Michael Herkes’ voice is a dream. His passion is palpable, lifting out of the pages and into your hands and heart. It looks at how the goddess/archetype Lilith has for so long been worshipped and feared, and walks readers through how they can create a relationship with Lilith, as well. In fact, it’s called The GLAM Witch because Herkes explores the Great Lilithian Arcane Mysteries (GLAM). Through luminous text, you’ll find astrology, ritual, and a magic that is steeped in power.” —Lisa Marie Basile, author of Light Magic for Dark Times

“A must for anyone interested in Lilith or the magic of glamour. Michael Herkes exudes new power into this feminine archetype and aids the reader on a pathway that leads to beauty, passion and her exotic temptations. He also did his research and offers us ancient wisdom that meets the present age. The book is fun, inspiring and filled with magic.” —Brian Cain, author of Initiation into Witchcraft
