"Dionysus has always stood for those on the edges of society; the queers, the outliers, and the seekers of truth. LeFae's latest work celebrates the god of many forms, emphasizing the beauty of gender fluidity and the power of radical liberation. Through soul-stirring rituals and deep personal gnosis, this book serves as a sacred bridge between the ancient Thracian mysteries and the modern fight against oppression, proving that ecstasy is not just a luxury, but a birthright."
—Katrina Rasbold, author of Uncrossing

"Dionysus is a vibrant and necessary offering for modern witches seeking an authentic relationship with the old gods. This work moves beyond the static myths and into lived devotion, where Dionysus emerges as liberator, initiator, and ecstatic teacher—one who calls us back into the wild truth of our own divine nature. LeFae skillfully weaves historical context, personal gnosis, and practical ritual into a path that is both grounded and transformative, honoring the god's ancient roots while embracing his living presence in the modern world."
—Heron Michelle, author of Elemental Witchcraftand Lunar Witchcraft

"This delightful book is one big ritual/party with many enthusiastic participants, and it's perfect for anyone seeking to better connect with their freest, most authentic selves."
—Enfys J. Book, author of Queer Rites

"Dionysus is a masterfully crafted guide that stands apart from standard mythological overviews by seamlessly blending extensive historical research with a deeply personal, ritualistic approach...
What makes this book truly essential for devotees and modern practitioners is its intimate 'love letter' quality; it feels less like a dry textbook and more like a shared journey, offering practical ritual technology, from breathwork to the creation of a thyrsus, that invites the wild god into the here and now. It is a powerful, inclusive resource that honors Dionysus as a living, evolving deity."
—Elhoim Leafar, author of Dream Witchery and Pagan Portals: Maria Lionza

"Dionysus is a medley of myth and personal perspectives; at the same time informative and worshipful. The book includes a comprehensive exploration of myths surrounding Dionysus while also being deeply invitational, drawing readers in with exercises and rituals to create and celebrate their own unique relationship to the god. Thus we are empowered not just to learn about Dionysus in the ancient world, but to experience such connection ourselves, in contemporary ritual and worship. The book is enriched by contributions from a number of other devotees and magical practitioners."
—Jane Meredith, author of Aspecting the Goddess and Journey to the Dark Goddess

"Phoenix LeFae offers a luminous and deeply engaging exploration of a deity too often reduced to wine, revelry, and sex. What emerges here is something far more intriguing: Dionysus as liberator, shapeshifter, ecstatic presence, patron of sacred excess, and force of profound spiritual transformation. Drawing from mythology, history, modern devotion, and practical witchcraft, Phoenix traces his movement from the ancient world into contemporary Pagan life with deep insight, clarity, warmth, and personal devotion."
—Lou Florez, author of The Modern Art of Brujeria
