Dorothy Morrison
Practical results-oriented witchery
The transmission
Dorothy Morrison (b. 1955) is an American author and a High Priestess of the Georgian tradition of Wicca, known for a pragmatic, results-focused approach to magic.
Her writing strips away much of the solemnity associated with ceremonial work in favor of practical, everyday technique aimed squarely at producing tangible change. Her books — Everyday Magic, Utterly Wicked, and the widely used The Craft — present spellwork as a craft to be applied to real-life problems, including money, love, and protection.
Utterly Wicked in particular addressed hexing and “baneful” magic frankly, marking her as an unusually direct, no-nonsense voice in popular witchcraft.
