Product Description:

Amazon.com Review:
The posthumous publication of The Crones Book of Charms & Spells gives us one more chance to experience the melodic rhythm of Worth's prose and to feel the emotion stamped in her poetic inscriptions and incantations. Evoking images of the wise old woman in an isolated cottage, these carefully crafted potions, spells, charms, and amulets reflect the importance she places on taking delight in the process of one's work, as well as in the final product. The Crone's Book of Charms & Spells makes for entertaining reading, and with a little common sense and caution, will make a powerful addition to your own library. --Brian Patterson

This book isn't for immediate beginner's at all!! It is more directed to the advanced practitioner who can understand the hidden references or in fact, for anyone who has an interest in the occult and poetic literature. I can see how this well-wriiten book can speak to people with diverse interests in this genre. I am a practicing witch myself and I must say it's not really a 'wiccan' book; as it states it is a book of charms and spells which can be incorporated into everyday life (to a certain degree). The text is written in very olde English, but I think this is the plan of the author Valerie Worth. As it states in the prefix, she didn't write the book so the rituals could be practiced as such, but so that they could be read and respected in the honour of tradition. Moreover, I think she directed this to the reader more than the practitioner, so one can use their imagination and interpret the old ways for themselves. I, myself, would never practice from this book as there are so mny simpler ways nowadays to use witchcraft to benefit oneself. I might use one of the amulets for self-power, but would never directly spell-craft. All in all, Valerie Worth portrays traditon in a poetic sense and delivers stories as well as practices. This is a great read whatever your beliefs, in order to get into the heads of many diverse practitioners of Valerie's time and how the culture was understood and used throughout the spiritual year.

Equaling the previous book in the series, Crone's Book Of Magical Words, in beauty "Crones Book of Charms and Spells" is truly worth reading.

If you know anything about wicca and pagan practice, some of these spells are dangerous and not something you should be using. yes, it has a disclamer in the start...but why print them if they are not to be used. I leave with you the wiccan law "And HARM YE NONE, do ye what will". It's a known and important part of our practice that we do not harm. Many believe that what you do will come back on you, threefold. so just be careful.

Let me begin by saying that I am on my third copy of this book. Here we are presented with a wonderful collection of herbs, recipes, talismans, folk wisdom, and ceremony. There are simple, yet beautiful illustrations, and great inscriptions. This book, along with The Crones Book of Words are reminiscent of something you might have found in Aunt Jet and Aunt Francis's attic. Enjoy!
