Charms, Spells, and Formulas: For the Making and Use of Gris Gris Bags, Herb Candles, Doll Magic, Incenses, Oils, and Powders

Great beginners book..Historical information about items used in formulas and spells. I love ❤ this book..A beginners GUIDE!!....

Although this is a book published by Llewyllyn Publicatons, a publishing firm known to publish anything to make a buck, this one is pretty good. I have owned this book for years and often return to it for a prayer or ingredient in one of rays formulas. The information is basic and introductory. I must admit that the "spells" are all in rhyme and sound more childish than a Mother Goose poem. Putting that aside, the rest of the book is pretty usefull, especially for a beginner looking to understand basic HooDoo. I must caution you though, avoid his other book, HooDoo Mysteries, that one is pure garbage and not worth the paper its printed on. Magical Power of the Saints, also by Malbrough is pretty good for those who enjoy working with the saints. Check this one and the Saints book out, leave his other "book".

Well,this takes care of my spell needs.I am already making a voodoo doll and it is coming out perfect.I've done some of the spells and they have worked!

This book was one of my favorite books that I have on my bookshelf.It had all the instruction that I needed to make my own dolls, oils, incense, powders, washes and it also had a few good spells in it.It also had diagrams of all the doll rituals in it that explained how to set up your altar and where to put everything.I would recommend this book to anyone who is interested in doll magick, voodoo or creating your own spell ingredients.
