Everything You Need to Know About Herbal Magic, from Best Selling Wicca Author Lisa Chamberlain
Would you like to enrich your life by tapping into the magical properties of the plant life that surrounds us all? If you answered yes, you’re in the right place.

Thanks to the increasing popularity of Wicca, there has been a resurgence in interest in herb magic. With all of the readily available herbs – either store bought, grown, or foraged – herbal magic is one of the most accessible forms of magic of all, not to mention one of the most effective!

If you’re looking to start practicing Wicca or Witchcraft (or you want to practice spellwork under a completely different umbrella!), herbal magic is one of the best starting points.

Magical Properties of Herbs
Going right back to the earliest recorded history, the healers, shamans, and other medicine men and women of the “old days” understood that herbs are useful for more than just nutrition and physical cures. But throughout history and across continents, all societies had working relationships with herbs and their magical properties.

When you think about it, it’s little surprise that herbs are among the most powerful tools of magic.

After all, plants embody the power of the four classical elements working together to create and sustain life – Earth (the soil), Fire (the Sun), Air (Oxygen), and Water (well, plants do need water!).

Of course, not all herbs have the same magical properties. Some herbs, like lavender and cinnamon, are primarily used for matters of the heart. Others, including basil and sage, are called upon for protection spells. Throughout this book, you’ll learn about the magical properties of some of the most popular herbs, enabling you to use them effectively during spellwork.

Wicca Herbal Magic: The Ultimate Beginner's Guide
Many people are drawn towards Wicca through the concept of Witchcraft and magic, and the idea that we can positively change our circumstances.

Wicca Herbal Magic was created to teach these people the whys and hows of herbal magic so that they can improve their lives in all the important areas – love, health, and wealth.

By reading this book, you will learn about the history of our relationship with herbs and plant life, dating back to the earliest civilizations.
You will discover 13 of the most popular (and readily available) herbs used by Witches today, plus each herb’s magical properties and magical associations.

You will then be taught several practical tips for working with herbs. This includes how to buy, grow, or forage magical herbs; how to store them; and how to charge them for magical use.

Finally, you will enjoy a selection of practical magic spells. This includes a variety of magical teas, magical baths, and magical creations. We will also combine herbal magic with another powerful type of magic – candle magic.

In other words, Wicca Herbal Magic will teach you everything you need to know to start practicing candle magic, today!

Lisa dispels all the common misconceptions about this diverse religion, giving her readers the perfect foundations for taking their first steps on their Wiccan journey.

Unlike other Wicca guides, Lisa's books provide information that's found across many Wiccan traditions, rather than coming from just one person's perspective. In fact, she writes the kinds of books she wishes had been available when she was just starting out in the Craft all those years ago.

When not writing or experimenting with spellwork, Lisa loves to read, play piano, and spend time surrounded by nature.

As an old Wiccan I read this book to "refresh my knowledge". This book was very easy to read. It included descriptions of 13 herbs/plants, some spells, some recipes of oils and baths, and some rituals. Half of the book includes history and basic knowledge of spiritual and physical characteristics of plants.

Definitely recomending for all Wiccans, no matter if you are just a beginner or an "old wolf" like me.

This is a starter guide for herbal work. It begins with a small history of herbal use in the past. Then, it provides short discussions on 13 herbs and how they have been used in the past and can be used currently. Next is a discussion on how to create your own magical garden and several tea recipes and spells.

This is a nice little booklet. What I liked about it is that the authour always reminds us that this is just a guide, not a binding instruction; and it definitely has enough information to get you started. What I liked a bit less were a couple of typos and a total absence of any information about the authour, or references to any research by other authours that she might have used for this work.

I found this very informative and a good place to start when beginning your practice. I definitely plan on continuing to read Lisa Chamberlain's other books. This was an easy and quick read, and one I was able to finish in one sitting. It keeps the information concise and brief with, what I would assume the most important information concerning the herbs, and it even includes a few rituals and spells at the end that incorporate the herbs mentioned in the book.

I love Lisa Chamberlains series of books. They are simplistic for beginners but give you enough information to start out on your journey. This book was no different! I recommend if you want to start getting into herbs, but want a simple guide to start off with!

Perfect for a baby witch

I have really enjoyed this book. It may not have all the herbs but in the beginning a million different herbs and resins and oils and all the info is just too much. It's a great starter's guide on the basic herbs you should have and wonderful spells to use those herbs. It touches the surface of herbs and that's perfect. I enjoyed it gives its medical and magical properties. I would recommend this to any baby witch.

This book may be my favorite from this author to date! It was filled with fascinating information, including facts like rosemary's use during embalming rituals in Ancient Egypt. I always knew that nutmeg is a strong herb, and a little can go a long way. However, I never knew too much of it could cause hallucinations. Great piece of information!

Good

A good introduction for the novice. I enjoy Lisa's style. She is a good place to start when trying to understand Wicca as she explains things simply and emphasizes the fact that there is so much to learn and no one person should be taken as "the expert". Very enlightened.

Although I am not a beginner, this book certainly helped me simplify some ideas. I read it and told my friend about it. I think he purchased his own copy, even after reading mine. I keep it on my virtual bookshelf as one of those books you can refer back to often. I will definitely return to it on occasions when I need inspiration or just want to see what else I can conjure :)

I know the date says that I started this book in 2015. That's the date I purchased and downloaded it. However, I finished reading it a long time ago, but I recently reread majority of it.

Lots ofo info

Loads of cross magical herb recipes from fresh, dried herbs & meaning to incense, oils, prepared baths so this book is great beginners reference. Did not give a 5 star because I would have liked a wider variety of herbs discussed.

I am not Wiccan, my rating is based on how well the book was for me to understand. I felt that the author did a great job on describing many herbs and how to use them. I was impressed with the fact that the author also gave warning to health risks. I plan to read other books by this author.
