Published in 1899 by folklorist Charles Godfrey Leland, Aradia: Gospel of the Witches is one of the most controversial works in the history of witchcraft. Claimed to be a record of hidden Italian witch traditions, it contains spells, rituals, and teachings of Aradia — a mysterious figure described as the daughter of Diana.
Was this book a genuine survival of ancient pagan wisdom, or a fabrication designed to capture the imagination of occult readers? In this episode of The Forbidden Library Podcast, we uncover the story behind Aradia and its lasting impact on modern witchcraft and neopaganism.
