a wonderful herbal for the advanced herbalist
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
This is an excellant book and I love it. My Mom gave it to me for Mothers Day and it is well appreciated, and already well thumbed. The illustrations are great and don't overburden the book. They're tasteful and mellow. And I like the little side notes on conditions the plants like if growing them yourself is an option. Now, having said that, there are a few cautionary notes that I would like to say. This book is NOT for anyone that is new to herbalism, wether it is for soaps, tinctures, poultices, etc. It doesn't matter. There are no cautionaries speaking of different side affects or if the herb should not be taken in certain circumstances, such as pregnancy. But then, for any herbalist, they should have learned very quickly that you always do your research before doing anything. I always use several referances, even just for spells, to be sure I have everything right. ALWAYS do the research. You must remember that even though herbs are natural, and considered safe, if you don't know what you're doing, they aren't. A specific herb may be safe in small doses but may hurt you over a long period of time, or if you overdose. And, if a condition continues, you should ALWAYS seak professional medical advice.

You WILL find magick...
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
A good introduction to wiccan herbalism with some beautiful woodcuts and helpful illustrations. Includes both folklore and researched information. The author writes in an inclusive, warm style that encourages readers to follow their intuition and get to know the herbs they choose to utilize in healing and spells. The Wicca Herbal is a lovely and informative read. Whether you are new to the world of herbalism, or you are more experienced, there is something for everyone. There are excellent short chapters on topics such as medieval herbology and natural gardening. I would strongly recommend it to those who are just starting out in herbology as a first book, and also to those who are wise crones. It is not an exhaustive work, but contains many interesting recipes - some I have not seen before. While there is some "introductory" information, this book makes good on its promise of helping you "find magick all around you."

Jamie Wood does an excellent job of presenting the Wiccan traditions through herbs, recipes, and thorough explanations of the sabbats. She offers very practical uses for these herbs in medicines, food, soaps, etc. I found this book to be very informative and useful.

The Wicca Herbal is an informative guide to useful herbs. Exploring the qualities and uses of these herbs, it provides information on how to grow them successfully and how to use them in cooking, healing, ritual and decoration.About 100 different herbs are covered, including milk thistle, lavender, chamomile, sage and mint, plus some important but lesser known ones. It is comforting to know that there is a herbal cure for every problem and situation, according to the wisdom of Wicca.This booked is rooted in the Wiccan tradition and serves as more than a simple herbal guide as it also imparts interesting information on aromatherapy, organic gardening and various aspects of holistic healing and it contains a chapter on medieval herbalism. The beautiful black and white illustrations contribute to the pleasant and informative reading experience.For those more interested in the gardening side, I also recommend Ellen Dugan's excellent Garden Witchery: Magick from the Ground Up, a book that tells you everything about creating your own magick garden and that perfectly complements The Wicca Herbal.
