1.0 out of 5 stars Worst Book Ever. Never should have been Written., July 1, 2011

This review is from: Good Spells for Bad Days: Broken Hearts, Bounced Checks, and Bitchy Co-Workers - Simple Magick to Fix Any Misfortune (Paperback)

This Book never should have been written. It appears to make a spell for "any misfortune" when it's actually luring it's readers into a web of incredibly bad Karma. Granted, the Author spends the time telling readers about Intent and Good vs. Bad but she glosses over it. She doesn't touch on the Rule of 3 (or 9 depending on what one chooses) and how what one does will come back magnified 3 or 9 times good or bad. Bad Karma slapping one in the face 9 time sucks incredibly hard. the teens and adults who might read this book aren't properly warned. She goes into "10 Good Things Magick can do for You" (p2) luring young readers in like a Spider; readers who have never been properly introduced into the worlds of Intent. One cannot fix Misfortune with just Magic -- yes, it's properly spelled with just a "c". Whether you like it or not, putting a "k" on the end of it will not make a word more powerful. It just makes you a bad speller; try using the spell-check, please.
I've been a Pagan for over 35 years. I would never recommend something like this. This book and this author is something to take your money and leave you with Bad Karma up the arse. Magic can't fix your problems. Only YOU can.

Try <u>Earth Magic</u> by Scott Cunningham. If you're going to spend money spend it on something that's worth some time. Ms. Alexander's books are trash in my opinion. There's spells in Mr. Cunningham's book as well, but there is a far more detailed course on Ethics. You can't have Magic without Ethics; otherwise you're in for one heckofa Karmic slap.
Please be careful. We tiny Mother Goddesses worry about you.
