Natural Magic

by Nigel Pennick

Natural magic is the way to work in harmony with the natural energies and forces that surround us all. Practising natural magic involves simple but effective practical techniques that all can use to become closer to the natural order of which we are all part. In this comprehensive introduction to natural magic, Nigel Pennick, author of 48 books on European traditional spirituality and folk-lore, provides us with an accessible in-depth approach to this most basic form of magic. The contents include an explanation of earth, mineral and plant magic; the magic of landscape and place; magical animals and how we can work with them; the power within the human body; natural magical charms, talismans and amulets, food and drink, and how to make and empower them.

Although I do not live in a place with the trees and weather that the author does I did not find it annoying like I do with many books like this. He did not make it seem like you had to live in a specific place to perform natural magic. I did actually learn some new things too which was refreshing.
