Product Description
If you were asked to define the word "witch," you might say that Witches are magick workers. If you were asked to define the word "Wicca," you might say that Wicca is a deep and meaningful religion shared by thousands upon thousands of people. But what would you call the combination of magick and religion? Can working magick be deep and meaningful? Can a religion work magick? Are these words the separate things they are often thought to be? This book screams the answer and that answer is not just yes but "Hell Yes!" A Wiccan Formulary and Herbal is study material for the first degree in a system of elevation described in A.J.'s last work, A Wiccan Bible. Included are: * Home remedies and herbal cures. * Recipes for incense, oils, and other brews. * Using tools of the trade. * A complete formulary. * A complete herbal reference. With a comprehensive reference section, recipes, and instruction A Wiccan Formulary and Herbal is not only a companion to A Wiccan Bible, but also a stand-alone reference that you will use and recommend with confidence.

Reader Reviews
too much dross and not enough wisdom -- the first rule of herbal arts is: if one can cure, two can kill. And while it seems like every publisher wants a magickal herb book, too many aren't versed enough in this field to choose the best materials. There is a difference between medicinal herbalism (folk remedials), magick, and other more "pleasurable" applications of herbs, and I don't feel like that was clearly defined on several levels. Additionally the lack of anything overly clever or new here leaves me wondering how much time/effort/thought went into the pages. I think Paul Bereyl's work along with Susan Weed are better options and complimentary (along with one book on more modern outlooks on herbs including toxicity)
