I purchased this book hoping for recipes for incense and oils but was sadly disappointed. It contained primarily charts listing the various correspondences -- colors, candles, chakras, deities, tarot, stones, etc.

If you need a spellcasting reference book to remind you that red is for passion, that saffron is a fire herb, that Marduk was the Great God of Babylon, buy this book. Otherwise, don't waste your money.

This book gives simple easy to understand information. Her story at ther begining of the book touched my heart and spoke to me. I kept this with me everywhere I went till my 14 y/o decided to keep it-then I bought a second copy. Most inforamitve-this is not a book that gives theory and history about Witchcraft, just formulas and simple spells. I was a little put off by the fact it is a catalog of sorts for a store, but I havent bought from them so I dont feel it is pushed on the reader.

This was a book that I picked up, and at first just used as a reference. It is meant as a very basic beginners handbook for spellcasting, energies, and all things related. Give it a whirl, it's very enjoyable and easily interpretable.
