Good, but not as good as last year's, April 18, 2001
This review is from: Llewellyn's Witches' Calendar 2001 (Calendar)
The 2000 calendar had many more recipes and spells/rituals. Still an excellent source of astrological, astronomical and sabbat information, though. In future issues I would like to see them expand more on the historical references, even if it's just a suggested reading list. We've already proven that we're interested in the subject; show us paths to more!

A visual treat & informative tool for the modern Witch!, December 31, 2000
This review is from: Llewellyn's Witches' Calendar 2001 (Calendar)
Llewellyn's Witches Calendar has become one of those routine calendar purchases in this household. Every month has a beautiful, season-themed graphic, and informative pieces by mostly Llewellyn authors that provide Pagan folklore, background information, recipes, how-to information, or ideas for seasonal rites or celebrations.
The days of the month contain astrological, color and moon phase information. There are important dates listed, such as traditional holidays, Sabbats, and important Pagan/Wiccan historical dates.
It would have been nice if other celebratory dates were included, such as God/Goddess feast days, and world festival celebrations. I also miss the little 5 or 6 line chants/poems they had in the previous year's calendar.
After December's page, there are a number of fine articles, such as, Gerina Dunwich (Sibyl Leek biography), Mary K. Simms (Planetary Hours for Witches; Sabbats), and Ann Moura (Casting the Dark Power Circle).
All in all, this calendar is a smart choice for those who make the Craft a part of their everyday lives.
