Pagan and Witch Books for the LGBTQ+ Community
In the words of RuPaul, "Reading is WHAT?" FUNDAMENTAL! In my words "Do Gay Witchcraft!"
Here is a list of noteworthy books that are directed towards the LGBTQ+ community. I tried to not go overboard so I kept it down to the ones I have actually read or been introduced to. I did not intentionally leave anyone off of this list.
Click on the gallery below to read their Amazon synopsis. At least one of these is out-of-print but might be found elsewhere.
ABOUT SI MANDRAGORA
Si is a Gardnerian High Priest and Minos Antheus Z.A. x in the Minoan Brotherhood operating in Flagler County, FL. A practitioner of various kinds of witchcraft since adolescence, he now runs Mandragora Magika, creates occult art, grows all kinds of plants but mostly in love with the poisonous variety. Si holds a degree in Graphic Design from the Art Institute.
Books have always been my lifeline, especially when exploring my identity and spirituality. I discovered "Queering Your Craft" through a friend, and it opened a door I didn’t even know existed. Funny thing, I often find hidden gems like that at Bas Bleu (you can see https://bas-bleu.pissedconsumer.com/review.html )—their eclectic selection always surprises me. If you’re starting out, I’d say begin with something that blends personal storytelling with ritual guidance—it makes the path feel less lonely. Don’t underestimate the magic of journaling alongside your reading either; it helps ground all that energy.
