People: Keith/Kimberley Morgan

Keith/ Kimberley Morgan

The author that brought accessibility to the occult and witchcraft.

Keith Morgan (pseudonym of Kimberley/Kimberly Morgan, a British Wiccan practitioner and editor of the Deosil Dance journal) wrote a series of short, practical booklets and pamphlets in the early-to-mid 1990s, primarily published by Pentacle Enterprises in London. 

These are concise (often 30–64 pages), introductory works rooted in British Traditional Wicca (with claimed Alexandrian and Gardnerian influences), covering philosophy, rituals, herbalism, and practical magic. They target beginners and practitioners seeking balanced, thoughtful approaches to the Craft. Many are now out-of-print collectibles, available used or via specialist occult booksellers. 

Core Wiccan/Philosophical Titles

•  Wicca Awakens (1992, revised/extended edition) — An introductory overview of Wicca, its awakening in the modern world, beliefs, and practices. Often seen as a foundational text.

•  Harmonics of Wicca: A Balancing Process for the Old Religion in the New Age — Focuses on unifying principles, balance, and adapting Wicca to modern times. 

•  The Horned God: Understanding Male Spirituality Within Balance (1992/1990s) — As discussed previously, on the male divine, gender polarity, and balance. 

•  So You Want to Be a Witch — Guidelines for those considering Pagan/Wiccan paths, covering basics and considerations.

I have already looked at a couple of these books and plan to do some others that are also in my library so keep checking in for those!

Morgan later expanded and reissued some works under her own name, Kimberley Morgan, as fuller paperbacks, and has produced annual Magickal Diary & Almanac editions since the late 1980s. 

These booklets emphasise practicality, balance (gender, light/dark, old/new), and thoughtful philosophy rather than sensationalism. They reflect 1990s British Wiccan/Pagan publishing—accessible, affordable intros for solitary or coven practitioners. Reception is generally positive among niche readers for their straightforward, experience-based tone, though they’re dated and brief by modern standards. 

For availability, check sites like AbeBooks, eBay, ThriftBooks, or occult specialists. Some PDFs or excerpts circulate in Pagan archives.
