This book is an excellent resource for all sorts of candle magic. Telesco's writing style is enthusiastic, approachable, and straightforward: it often feels like she's sharing her favorite spells and tips with you as a friend over for tea. In addition to the wide variety of spells, incantations, charms, and rites she offers (and there are SO MANY!), the book is a treasure trove of suggestions on how to create your own meaning, including correspondence lists in the appendices.
I'm read this in e-book format to review, but I'll be picking up a paperback copy as a valuable resource for my magical library.
