The Modern Witchcraft Spell-Book

Seriously! This is the most practical spellbook I have read! I think you won't be disappointed. Don't let the cheesy cover fool you, this book is REAL witchcraft! I would classify this book as real american maigc -- combining european witchcraft and hoodoo to create a nice blend of magic that truely compliments itself. The price is cheap and the spells contained in the book is definitely worth more than what you are paying for! You won't be sorry for getting this book!

To one of the reviewers who needs a history lesson. First off I am pagan NOT Wiccan and I was not offended by this book. There is a lot of Witchcraft in Catholicism and Witchcraft & Wicca are not the same thing! There is a lot to learn about Witchcraft in other religions. WITCH is not a word owned by Wiccans!!! Good grief....

The spells presented hear are the traditional spells used in Brujeria, Voodooists, Espiritistas, Curanderismo, and Hecherismo, or Witchcraft. It seems sadly that books as this should have a lable, like those found on cds. "Witch's Advisory, No one under 18 or Wiccan Without a True Brujos Consent." These spells are the traditional spells used by many Witches, not Wiccans. If you are Wiccan do not read, if you are interested in true folkmagick, spellcrafting and Witchcraft as done by Brujos, then this might be a small but good window into the secreat kitchen, altar and working room of a Bruja/o, Witch.

some of the other reviewers of this book don't really seem to understand what it's about. it's about WITCHCRAFT. it gives SPELLS. now, i'm sorry if it bothers you that witchcraft and wicca are not the same thing, but they aren't. and, incidentally, this book can in no way be called ceremonial magick. it is a perfectly good collection of spells and bits of folklore, largely from a hoodoo/folk magic vein. oh, and incidentally, the spells in it seem to work just fine, (as do many other spells that involve calling on the Lord or reciting the psalms.)

This book is one of the best by Anna Riva. It focuses on everyday Useful spells that an modern witch can use. The book's practical and easy to understand instructions makes it an excellent guide to beginners and experience witches alike.Putting the "evil" spells aside, this work is as good, if not better, than Anna Riva's other book, SPELLCRAFT, HEXCRAFT and WITCHCRAFT...It's a must buy!
