Earth Magic, revised edition [Paperback]

Marion Weinstein (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: July 7, 2008

Marion Weinstein is known as one of the first witches to release a Book of Shadows to the public. Here is the revised and updated version of Earth Magic, the author's personal book of magical practice, made available for today's Witches. Based on an in-depth study of the many facets of Witchcraft, Earth Magic presents the religion as positive and life affirming. The book is filled with how-to's of a practical nature. It is intended to be a springboard, to unlock the reader's psychic Wiccan abilities and guide his or her into the creation of his or her own unique and personal work. Every technique is explained in detail, in keeping with Weinstein's proviso that one should never attempt to work any magic unless one understands it fully. The information from the original edition is still available, as well as a treasure trove of new material, some of which has never been seen before.

The book is very organized and informative sometimes it grazes the structure of typical organized religion but it is a good stepping stone for beginners. I find it's a good book if you want to learn how to practice but as for the history of wicca it only delves in a little.

This review is from: Earth Magic, revised edition (Paperback)

This is a phenomenal book, even if you don't see eye to eye with Marion Weinstein on every topic discussed. I highly recommend this book to ANYONE who is new to the study of Witchcraft, as well as those who are seasoned Witches. I believe that this book should be in the home of every Witch. Marion Weinstein is an "old school" Witch from before Wicca and Paganism were widely accepted in society, so you're getting some very straight forward stuff in this book. It's a small book, but there's absolutely no padding in this book. It's all info, with very little in the way of anecdotes and the like. It's a heavy read because she goes into so many topics, but each chapter leaves you hungry for more. She talks about Words of Power, Deity Alignments, covens, familiars, Magick, spirit communication and much more. If you happen to find this book priced below $30, snatch it ASAP! I searched for a copy of this book for a very long time, but I could never find one within my price range (at the time, I couldn't find one that was below $40, used and in "Acceptable" condition!), and I finally managed to snag a copy for around $20 a few months ago. Having read it, I would probably pay a lot more for it, now, if I didn't have a copy.

And just so you know, this book is sort of a sequel to Positive Magic, and I recommend that you read it before Earth Magic.
