Welcome to the Order of Gold & A Sneak Peek at "How to Be a Bad Witch"!

Greetings, fellow seekers, curious minds, and those who feel a little…unconventional. I’m absolutely thrilled to finally unveil my brand new website: Order of Gold!

For a while now, I’ve dreamed of creating a dedicated space – a digital hearth, if you will – where we can connect on a deeper level, share our journeys, and explore the fascinating, often misunderstood, world of witchcraft and the occult. Order of Gold is that space.

Think of it as a virtual coven – a place for learning, sharing, and finding your tribe. Here you’ll find:

  • Blog posts delving into various aspects of witchcraft, from practical spellwork and herb lore to exploring historical witch trials and the modern resurgence of magical practices.

  • Resources including recommended reading lists, links to fascinating articles, and perhaps even some downloadable goodies in the future.

  • Community forums (coming soon!) where we can discuss ideas, ask questions, and support each other on our individual paths.

  • Updates on my writing and upcoming events.

And speaking of upcoming events… I have some incredibly exciting news! My forthcoming book, "How to Be a Bad Witch," published by the wonderful team at Stated House, is just around the corner, hitting shelves this June!

Now, what exactly is a "Bad Witch"? It’s not about being malevolent or casting hexes on your enemies (though, hey, sometimes a little boundary setting is necessary!). Instead, "How to Be a Bad Witch" is about embracing the messy, imperfect reality of witchcraft. It’s about:

  • Rejecting rigid rules: Witchcraft is deeply personal. This book encourages you to find what resonates with you, not adhere to someone else's dogma.

  • Owning your power, flaws and all: We don't need to be pristine goddesses to tap into our magic. Our imperfections are often where our strength lies.

  • Finding the magic in the mundane: This book explores how to weave enchantment into your everyday life, from your morning coffee to your evening walk.

  • Being unapologetically yourself: True magic comes from authenticity. "How to Be a Bad Witch" is an invitation to embrace your unique weirdness.

Think of it as a guide for the witch who spills their potions, forgets the incantations halfway through, and sometimes just wants to use their intuition over a dusty old grimoire. It’s about finding the power within your own imperfect practice.

Order of Gold will be the perfect companion to "How to Be a Bad Witch," offering a space to discuss the book's themes, share your own "bad witch" moments, and connect with others on a similar journey.

So, please, explore the new website, orderofgold.com. Sign up for updates, and get ready to dive into the wonderfully witchy world of "How to Be a Bad Witch" this June! I can’t wait to share it with you all.

Stay curious, stay a little bit wild, and welcome to the Order of Gold.

Blessed be (in your own wonderfully imperfect way),

Aurealia Nelson
