curious about interpretation
At various points while reading I would have a thought and with in a page or two would be reading something that matched my thoughts, then at one point an incantation popped into mind and three pages later I saw the incantation word for word as it had been in my mind (I had actually spoken it when it popped into my mind so reading it was a bit of a surprise) ...now this was my first time reading this book as I've been going through the vast numbers of ebooks I have and only recently gotten to the wicca/witchcraft collection...I have, in the past, studied witchcraft but have never read any rituals,spells,etc...in the book it mentioned "natural witches" as being innately capable of rituals/spellwork with no training and that they often do so solitarily as being part of a coven holds their abilities back ...
I'd like to get the perspective of some of our wiccan/pagan members on this...
Through passion I gain strength and knowledge
Through strength and knowledge I gain victory
Through victory I gain peace and harmony
Through peace and harmony my chains are broken
There is no death, there is the force and it shall free me

I think everyone has the ability to perform magic - with or without spells and rituals. It'll be interesting to hear more and if you continue to experience things like that. Sonia Choquette has some good books about psychic awareness that you might find interesting...like having things pop into your mind before reading them.

Do you find that the more you realize the connectedness of everything that the less you need rituals or spells? Or, do they help you get into the right frame of mind? ...if you don't mind my asking.
