Hath No
fury explores the lives of magick practitioners set in the 1970s and
later in the 1980s. In the 1970’s the word “Wiccan” had not become a
pop-culture term. The television show, “Charmed” which showed witches
in a positive light, hadn’t yet aired and reruns of Elizabeth
Montgomery’s Bewitched resembled the practice of a “witch” in name
only.
The general public knew little about the practice as an earth-based, almost hippie-like culture. When people thought of witches they either imagined the pointy-hat-wearing hag from the Wizard of Oz or even worse, something out of Rosemary’s Baby. Even the books available among practitioners of the art seemed darker. Books like Mastering Witchcraft, What Witches Do, or anything by Mr. Alistair Crowley, while mostly accurate, appeared dark and mysterious compared to the brighter, more mainstream, works of Silver Ravenwolf that would be available in years to come.
