"Wicca is a sexy religion", says this playful and informative book, charmingly packaged with the basic tools of love magic: a taper candle, rose quartz, plume feather, and vial of rose oil. For anyone intrigued by all the media talk about wicca, here are easy-to-read answers about this rich brew of a mystic practice, its origins, and its celebration of sexuality. Here's an array of aphrodisiacs and spells (at the waning of the moon anoint your third eye to induce self-awareness, warm an ice chip in your hands -- and expect many suitors), and their different uses. So, with Wicca for Lovers, set up an enchanted evening and spice up your love life.

Book Description
Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com Review
Sexuality is made sacred with this comprehensive guide for Wiccan lovers. Author Jennifer Hunter suggests numerous spells to light the romantic fires, including the "Open Up in There!" spell (to get someone to notice you), which should be performed during the waning moon and requires a small chip of ice, a pink candle, as well as chamomile and peppermint tea. If you need a higher potency spell, consider the "Kindling Fire" (it makes someone desire you), a steamy ritual that requires a personal item from the person lusted after. (This one can be so effective that Hunter warns readers to "USE WITH CAUTION.") Novices will appreciate the supplies that are packaged with the book, including a tapered candle, rose quartz, feather, and scented massage oil.
Fortunately, Hunter also leads readers into deeper discussions about sexuality and longing. For example, she suggests specific exercises that can help readers "learn to love their bodies." The book even has a section called "Sexuality 101 for the Nervous." "You can't practice sex magic without being comfortable with your sexuality and your partner," Hunter explains. So she offers exercises that increase sexual ease while imaging yourself "being cradled by the protective arms of the Gods and Goddesses." --Tara West

Love spells!,
By
This review is from: Wicca for Lovers: Spells and Rituals for Romance and Seduction (Hardcover)
Generally speaking, I hate love spells.
Generally speaking, I also hate boxed sets. I guess the two hatreds must have cancelled each other out rather than making the hate grow exponentially. Of course, it doesn't hurt that the author is quite talented. I loved both her Rites of Pleasure and Twenty-First Century Wicca. So it actually didn't surprise me when I discovered that this set bucks the system when it comes to luuuuuv spells and Wicca-inna-box. Hunter's writing is, once again, quite grounded. Rather than simply throwing a bunch of spells at the reader, she explains where sacred sexuality in general weaves in with Wiccan spirituality. And the material isn't just about what you want in a partner-it also covers the very important point that to love yourself is even more important. There's also a chapter on sex magic, to include the traditional (as opposed to symbolic) Great Rite. For a 96-page book, there's a lot of good information in here. Lest you complain that "Wicca isn't about love spells!", I assure you that Wicca For Lovers doesn't purport to be the do-all and end-all of (eclectic) Wicca. And, as mentioned, Hunter ties love magic in with the sacred sexuality inherent in Wicca, and in pagan religions in general. Finally, look at Christian publishing-there are all sorts of niche books in that genre. Maybe not all Wiccans are interested in using magic to augment their search for that special someone (or someones-the book is poly-friendly). But just as with Christian dating manuals, so this work helps to tie in the methods we have at our disposal for finding partners to spirituality. No, this isn't a complete treatise on love magic, sex magic, or related topics. However, given that there are people out there who have no knowledge of magic in general who may pick up something on love spells on a lark, it's good to know that this set exists (though currently is unavailable brand new-unopened packages may still be found through used book dealers). If I were going to offer anything to the curious, it'd be this set-the book contains a good basic grounding of magical theory, covered well before the spells even begin. However, even those who are more seasoned in magic may find this to be a fun things to play with, a light-hearted gift to give to a friend, or even to give to a couple for a bit of magical "bonding". While this isn't Hunter's best work (Rites of Pleasure is a much more thorough and "serious" book), all things considered it's well above other love magic/love spell compendiums I've seen. It's playful, fun, but with an undercurrent of magic and spirituality that give it depth that all too often missing from this sort of thing.

Jennifer really knows her stuff!,

This review is from: Wicca for Lovers: Spells and Rituals for Romance and Seduction (Hardcover)
Not only does she have a good writing style, the author clearly demonstrates her extensive knowledge of Wicca and sacred sexuality.
This book responsibly includes easy to follow instructions about creating sacred space and circle casting along with explanations of why doing so is important. So that even someone just looking for a book of love spells (not familiar with Wicca / Witchcraft), are given the opportunity to use the information in a proper form. The spells, rituals, recipes, associations and tips are helpful to seasoned Witches as well, especially when looking for fresh ideas on magick for relationships. This book contains a little of everything...but in just the right amounts and with a unique perspective if you're already familiar with these things. I particularly liked the basic framework the author put together for the Great Rite. The simplicity makes it one of the best I've come across. The section on a magickal evening...sensuous!
