This book works

Once upon a time there was a young witch who desparately needed a mode of transport other than the bus. As the universe designed, into her lap fell this particular book with spells for all purposes, including money. At first glance it seemed that the book was all gloss and pretty pictures beautiful on a bookshelf but not necessarily of any use. Then she spotted a spell that would, if it worked, be exactly what she needed. This best suited spell looked as though it would be most difficult to perform because some of the items required were not readily availble, and not easy to attain. Of course the optimum timespan to perform the spell was fast disappearing. Then as if by magick all the items she was missing appeared..via friends and great timing...so she performed the spell releasing all the energy she could muster to the universe and in 3 days she had a brand new car and she drove around to her hearts content happily ever after :)... so there you go.. the book has validity, the spells work, and not just on the little things in life. A very useful witches tool The End :)

excellent for anyone

this book was great. it doesn't matter if you are a beginning witch or an advanced one. this book has what kind of candles, herbs, etc. all of the essentials.

Its best to buy this one first

I had bought all the other Titania books before this (due to lack of stock) and I should have waited for this one. It gives all the initial insight into becoming a Witch and is a great stepping stone for the beginner. I have recommended it to friends and now I recommend it to you.The introduction tells you an idea of what a Witch is and also incldes a 'shopping list' (Invaluable to someone wanting to enter the craft). Titania speaks to you as an individual without patronising which (pardon the pun) I found inviting and undaunting. The spells are easy to follow and understand.The best book out at the moment.

One of the few best spellbooks out there!

This book will always be my favorite. It was my first spellbook and I love it dearly. The pictures are wonderful and the book is well bound, so it will last for a very long time. It is great for beginer as well as the experienced. I'm not just saying this to help the sales of the book, but I really think it's one of the few best out there. I have searched for ones better or equal to its quality and am still searching. Well I hope you will consider getting this wonderful book to either add to your collection or start one.

Interesting..

Hocus POcus will always be dear to my heart as it was my birst wiccan book. It inspired me to go on further. It has beatiful illustrations and is bound well, but when compared to other books it does seem to lack substance. They are just spells with none of the magic, she consciously misses out the religion, perhaps so as not to 'frighten' off the non pagan? It inspires you to do more, but it is the ulitmate beginners guide, I wouldn't recommend it for established witches. it can also be frustrating because it can be hard to do the spells exactly right - the times are quite specific etc and the book doesn't explore how oyu can improvise, and that at the core of it all is your own magic, not that of a sprig of basil. But then again, it is my baby, and a book I've read hudnreds of times.
