Gemma Gary - Traditional Witchcraft and Charming in Cornwall

Gemma lives and works in the remote, ancient and mysterious landscape of Cornwall’s West Penwith, in a secluded farm cottage set, in synchronicity with local tradition, down the end of a long thorn-lined path on the outskirts of St Byryan. The notorious village and its surrounding area has a long tradition of Witchcraft; still today it has its working witches, or wise-women, available for consultation.

Gemma is a dedicated student, practitioner, author and artist of historical and modern Traditional Witchcraft and folk-magic. Her working interest is focused upon the magical traditions and customs of Cornwall and the West Country.

She is the current serving Dyawles/Magistra of Ros an Bucca; a traditionalist witch hearth and kord (clan), and a founding recension of the contemporary pellar current and Bucca venerating Craft. A working witch; Gemma is available for distant readings and traditional charm-work in addition to her work as a writer and illustrator of the Old Ways.
