The Element Encyclopedia of 5000 Spells (Hardcover, Illustrated Ed)

The definitive magic reference book for Witches, Wiccans and all devotees of the magical arts. This is the real version of the archetypal master spell book of fantasy that has a place in our collective imagination.The spell book also contains a brief history of and basic precepts of magic, plus material about the tools of Witchcraft. Sales Handles: * Today there are many books of spells for specific needs and occasions for the practising Wiccan/witch, but no comprehensive and inclusive magic reference book exists. * This is the magical equivalent of a prize and inspirational cookbook: nothing is too basic to be explained and yet sophisticated tastes as well as emergency situations are catered for. * The book goes beyond merely the Wiccan tradition to include a multitude of eastern and western magical traditions whilst fulfilling the archetypal fantasy of the grand grimoire (master spell book). * From Merlin and Grimm's fairytales, to Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter and Disney's Sorcerer's Apprentice, plus countless other fantasy stories, the master spell book has a place in our collective imagination. This book is that fantasy made real.

Review This Product

Thu, 18 Nov 2010 | Review by: Andrew C.

An extremely useful book, with spells for any occasion, as well as for general interest. It is nothing like other "spell books" on the market, as its contents are from traditional sources. The introductory sections offer insight into magickal practices throughout the world, and how magick can be used in daily life. The book also includes a formulary with recipes for stock ingredients used in the spells listed, as well as a botanicals list, with properties and botanical names of various magickal plants, which i found particularly useful.

The only problem with this book is that every spell book you buy after this is a let down. :)
