Put a Smile on your Face...

This Calendar is Great...The Witches Spells are at times, hilarious.I'd heard most of them, as a child growing up in New Orleans, La. A lot of the Spells, have probably been passed down to the reader as an 'old wives' tale'.I read my daily Spell over Coffee, and always get a smile to take with me to my Workday.

How Does Your Herbal Garden Grow?

The 2002 Herbal Almanac is probably a must for any witch who grows an herbal garden. I received a copy of this book last year, and found myself referencing it many times, as I worked on my garden this year. While it has been an experimental year for me, this book does contain many solid articles. This year's book features articles from Elizabeth Barrette, Eileen Holland, Sara Greer and many others. The topics covered range from composting to herbal honeys and honey candied herbs (a sweet treat article), herbal care for expecting moms and kids and handling business stress with flower essences. There are many other good articles in here, too numerous to mention, as well as moon charts, eclectic herb plants and seed sources, zone charts, even potpourri recipes. A good source of information and ideas, and a great gift for that herbalist at Yule.

Essential reading

I was new to herbs when I bought this, but now I am hooked! There are soooo many things that you can use in here, this really is essential for anyone who has interest in anything to do with herbs.

Daily Spell

I love this calendar. It takes up very little room on your desk and although it gives you a spell per day, one doesn't have to perform the working as it is given. These workings are light and easily adaptable to whatever you wish to accomplish. Room enough on each page to make a notation, and each page is small enough that you can take the page with you, if needed, to gather materials. Must have for those new to the craft, and for those who have been around for awhile, an excellent way to look at other works for inspiration.
