If you consider yourself an advanced witch or Wiccan, you may want to be less harsh in your judgment of this book, as the people reading it are those like myself, who have an avid interest in witchcraft/the occult, but don't have the twenty years of training in such subjects. So, in that case, I've made my point clear.

I am not saying that this book is poorly written or contrived, on that contrary, it's a very rich book, and I think it is chock-full of important information. I would highly recomm...more

I was really interested in this book as a reference source, and it has helped me a great deal in my own practice. However, I had a few problems with the general layout and lack of detail given for the chapter about spell casting and correspondences.

I was a bit confused about this book, because it says "the COMPLETE Book of Shadows" and honestly, personal opinion aside, I found it to be lacking in a lot of parts. I don't feel as if a Seeker picked up this book, it would be a great primer on the v...more

*NOTE* Do not let my review sway you from trying out this book to see if it suits your purposes, it very well may!!

I used this book as a reference for a paper I was working on at the time: The role of the environment in modern day Earth-Based spirituality and how the ecological crisis of today will impact this role. I wanted to look at at actual practices to see how integral the role of nature is to the practice. Although, I was able to pull a few good examples from this book, and it overall ser...more

Love this book, have adopted it as my own Grimoire. I added so many sticky notes and book marks I had to buy another book because this first one was falling apart. Met the author and was able to take her class, A Year & a Day in the life of A Witch, wonderful lady! Great daily information, I think a must have. History, correspondence, recipes, spells, so mush more. Enjoy! I know I do!

I love reading books of this sort and I am sure I am not alone in this. However sometimes I find them difficult to read because the author just doesn't word them in a way to hold the readers attention. This book is very simple and easy to follow along with. Her writing is easy to understand, even for someone just learning. Its almost as if she is talking to you as you are reading. I love this book and highly recommend it to anyone, from the very knowledgeable to those just learning. A wonderful...more

Really useful as far as esbat and sabbat rituals go. I'd rec this to anyone who's looking to begin learning the wheel of the year, because as far as doing ritual goes, these are nice ones to work with until you're comfortable with everything.

It has nice sections on herbs as well.

This book has lots of important information. It has a lot of rituals and spells. It also has chart on subjects such as moon phases. The goddess is the centre of modern witchcraft. to learn more about the goddess go on www.yoni.com

This is my all-time favorite for all the basic information anyone needs to know regarding Wicca. From various types of runes, signs, and symbols, to the sabots, to birthday signs, and much more. I love this book!

This was enjoyable, but not my path. It has a very structured system it seems, too much so for me. I enjoyed it and like what it offers, it's just not for me.
Julie Jenks
So much interesting information I wouldnt know where to start. so many charts on symbols, color meanings, astrology, moon phases...

Gives details on what it means to be a Green Witch. How the things you do effect the world around you.

WITCHCRAFT! ...... I like it.
Caprica
Packed with corospondences! I like Ann Moura's books because she uses a lot of herbal magic, hence the "Green" titles.
