Product Description
Published to coincide with the Pagan holiday Samhain on October 31st, this new title by a renowned author and Witch will appeal to spiritualists and environmentalists alike as it celebrates the eight holidays in the Pagan tradition. The Pagan origins of many of our everyday traditions, including the Winter Solstice and Spring Equinox, are celebrated here as holidays that spring from the seasons of the earth. Wit its practical suggestions for enjoying seasonal renewal, Celebrate The Earth blends all the richness and ancient lore of Witchcraft with how-to advice to create a modern-day celebration of nature. For each holiday, it offers instructions on: Earth magic--sample rituals, preparation, garb, herbcraft, spellcraft, and magical stones, for promoting love, romance, and healing. Holiday fare--recipes and menus to prepare. Ancient activities--crafts and games passed down through generations. Also included is a list of sources--an extensive bibliography, plus lists of specialty shops and mail order catalogs.

Stef (USA: AR) (2007/10/02): Includes Earth Magic-sample rituals, preparation, garb, herbcraft, spellcraft,magiacl stones, and lore for each holiday. Holiday Fare- recipes to prepare for feasts, some from Celtic lands. Ancient Activities- crafs and games passed down through many generations of Witch familes to enrich the holiday season. List of Sources - an extensive bibliography, plus lists of specialty shops and mail order catalogs for your paticular needs.
S. Elwin Bennington (USA: OR) (2007/12/13): I didn't hate it, but I felt this book was written for people on a different path than mine. I found myself questioning the authority and validity of the author's statements in some places. I think this would be a really good book for people who are already familiar with (and fond of) Laurie Cabot's other work. It has some lovely recipes for festive foods, but not many of them are vegetarian.
