Psychic Witch: A Metaphysical Guide to Meditation, Magick & Manifestation (Mat Auryn's Psychic Witch, 1) by Mat Auryn, Devin Hunter

Some books arrive and quietly raise the bar for everyone. Psychic Witch is one of them. In it, Mat Auryn lays out the practice that made him one of the most trusted teaching voices in modern witchcraft: the idea that psychic ability and magick are two sides of a single coin, and that developing one strengthens the other. This is the paperback edition from Llewellyn, with a foreword by Devin Hunter, and it carries more than ninety hands-on exercises that take you from your first grounding and shielding work all the way to multidimensional manifestation. Whether you are picking up your craft for the first time or deepening a practice you have kept for years, this is the book people hand to each other when they want to actually feel the energy they have been reading about.

Key Features of Psychic Witch

More than ninety hands-on exercises. This is a working book, not a book you only read. Auryn builds your skills in sequence, from meditation, grounding, and shielding through extrasensory perception, energy work, and manifestation, so each practice rests on the one before it.

Psychic development and witchcraft as one practice. The premise that runs through the whole book is that perceiving subtle energy and shaping it are the same skill viewed from two sides. You learn to sense energy and to direct it, which is the foundation everything else in the craft is built on.

The modern classic, beginner-friendly and deep. Psychic Witch became an international bestseller because it meets you wherever you are. Newcomers get a clear, encouraging on-ramp; seasoned practitioners find a structured way to sharpen perception they may have left untrained.

What You'll Learn

Psychic Witch is structured as a progression. It opens with the groundwork every practitioner needs: meditation, relaxation, and the focused attention that makes everything else possible. From there it moves into tuning in and extrasensory perception, teaching you to notice the subtle information you have likely been filtering out, and into purification and shielding so you can work cleanly and keep your own energy your own.

The heart of the book is its model of the witch's energy and awareness, including Auryn's accessible treatment of the Three Souls and the flow of terrestrial and celestial energy. By the closing chapters you are working with the elements, raising and directing energy, and turning perception into manifestation. More than ninety exercises carry you through it, so the learning happens in your own body and practice rather than only on the page. It is a curriculum as much as a book, and many witches return to it for years.

How To Use This Book

1. Work it in order. The exercises build on each other, so resist the urge to skip ahead. The early meditation and grounding work is what makes the later psychic exercises land.
2. Keep a journal. Record what you notice after each exercise, even the faint impressions. Tracking the subtle stuff over time is how you learn to trust it.
3. Practice in small, regular sessions. Steady daily practice builds the skill faster than occasional long sessions. A few focused minutes counts.
4. Set the space. Many readers light a candle and brew a cup before they sit, turning the practice into a small ritual that signals the work is beginning.
5. Continue with the sequel. When you are ready to turn perception into spellcraft, Mastering Magick picks up exactly where this book leaves off.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Psychic Witch good for beginners?

Yes. It is one of the most recommended starting points in modern witchcraft. Auryn assumes no prior experience and builds from simple meditation and grounding upward, while still going deep enough that experienced practitioners find plenty to work with.

Do I need to be a witch to read it?

No. The psychic development practices stand on their own and suit anyone wanting to strengthen intuition and energy awareness. That said, the book is written from a witchcraft perspective and pairs naturally with a developing magickal practice.

What is the difference between Psychic Witch and Mastering Magick?

Psychic Witch builds your psychic perception and energy skills; Mastering Magick, the sequel, applies those skills to spellcasting with more than sixty spells. Many readers work through this book first, then move to Mastering Magick to put the skills into practice.

Which edition is this?

This is the original Llewellyn paperback, first published in 2020, with the foreword by Devin Hunter. It is a separate edition from the later deluxe hardcover, so if you are matching a set or a citation, this is the standard trade paperback.

How many exercises does it include?

More than ninety, woven throughout the chapters rather than saved for the end. They progress from foundational meditation and grounding to extrasensory perception, energy work, and manifestation, so your practice grows chapter by chapter.
