Vast Wealth of Knowledge

This was such an informative book! It was exactly what I had been looking for, but did not realize I had found it by purchasing this book. I may not have the discipline to create all of these potions and oils. I have yet to do so. But all of the information on herbs and their properties, as well as information on moon phases, planetary days, and planetary hours, was so helpful and exactly what I had wanted to find in other books, but was unable to do so. Thank you, Sophia diGregorio! You are so helpful and knowledgeable! I will attempt to make some of these potions at some point, but the information presented in the first half of the book made the book worth buying, even if I do not make the potions.. Also, what I like about the author is that she does not judge you or condemn you if you want to put a spell on someone. She leaves the ethics up to you. I really get tired of authors trying to put on a moral sense of self-righteousness by telling you what is right and wrong. Because I absolutely believe that either everything is fated, or we all have free will. If we all have free will, then nobody can make you do anything that you do not want to do. If everything is fated, then it is not our spells that force people to like us, but the will of fate itself. So, either way, fate or free will, you cannot force someone to do something that is not meant to happen. I also believe that we make soul contracts with people, before we are born. So, really, nothing can be forced by a spell that is not supposed to happen. I really appreciate that this author is not self-righteous or condemning. Also, she does not choose one religion or spiritual belief over others. She cites incantations from many religious and spiritual sources that one can use to help create a good work space vibration. She does not stick to one spiritual source, which is great for people who are open-minded spiritually and not religious.

Thorough And Extremely Useful

This is an excellent resource for those that want to become more adept at creating their own Magickal blends.The author has done extensive research. She offers a serious work with traditional Occult techniques from creating and charging the working area, to adjusting the recipes for both safety and creating various forms of the different formulas. This is not the typical so-called 'Witchcraft' book replete with saccharine self-help pop psychology(which I am not criticizing, if it is useful to some in their individual paths), it is a book for those that are desirous to learn very old and traditional ways of working in the Magickal Arts. Ms. Di Gregorio offers the full spectrum, including darker aspects of Work, expecting that her reader is mature and responsible enough to handle the information.Very well done!

Not much more to say...

The description of this book is completely accurate. There's really not much more I can expand on. I will say this, the way the book is laid out makes complete sense. When there are ingredients that are difficult or near impossible to obtain, the author has explained what it is, why it is difficult or near impossible to obtain and very suitable substitutions are suggested. There are several recipes that I highlighted or bookmarked for my own future use, others I recognize merely due to familiarity and others that were new to me. I liked that some recipes had several versions, too. There is a pretty good list of references - not exhaustive or overwhelming in size but thorough.

must have for everyone rather wiccan or not

Where to start...Fast shipping great read filled with easy to hard potions to perform I recommend this for witch's starting out to pro witch's it also includes incense section that has spells such as Ouija board spells to increase its power so it's even for people who enjoy a good read filled with moon fazes and meanings candle color meaning EVERY SINGLE MAGIC HERBS USE AND NAME (OVER 1000) this books a must buy

Very useful.

A very informative and useful read! Everything clearly written and explained and the steps are simple. Explanations are to the point and you can find what you need and how to use it, for pretty much any situation.

I love this book

I love this book. It is very detailed and thorough in its explanations. I have spent a lot of money and time trying to find a book that wasn't full of tv propaganda and this is the one!

Not as advertised

Ordered this because I was given the impression that it would have historically accurate recipes within the scope of European witchcraft. Where actually the recipes it has are borrowed from Hoodoo and Southern American Conjure, and I could only find two European recipes that have been changed so much to fit the new age that they are useless.No ancient love philtrums, no lycanthropy Potions, droughts of death, or even medicinal salves known as Balsam Angelis. Just the general north American Hoodoo recipes, which aren't horrible, but that's not what was advertised.
