Thank you Patricia Telesco and Crossed Crow Books for this ARC.
This book is extremely informative especially if you are in the beginning of your journey into becoming a witch. It meets you where you are at in creating your own altar and sacred space to perform spell work. My favorite part was the rituals that you can do for each celebration of the Wheel of the Year. I have been looking for for more ways to incorporate these celebrations into my life. They feel more authentic to me and I love how it calls me to connect with nature. Same with the Moon rituals.
I look forward to using this information in my practices to expand my journey.
