I wasn't as impressed by this book as I'd hoped having been very taken by the concept.
The opening chapters give some information on Wicca but I felt that they covered the 'what Wiccans do' without giving enough information on the 'why Wiccan do' and that made me uncomfortable with it as I don't think it's right to do something 'because I read it in a book' you need to know why you're doing it in order to decide if it's right for you or not.
Obviously it's not a book you read from cover to cover - after the introductory chapters it's split into weeks giving astrological information and suggestions of 'spells' to be worked during the week. I'm not sure I would use them - I don't really believe that something will work because you lit three yellow candles on a Monday or whatever but I shall hang onto the book for the rest of the year to look at some of the suggested themes.

I've not looked at this book in an age so am sending it out on a ring.

PMed ktwalker for addy
On way to ktwalker
recieved today, I will start it when I have finished my current book, probably next week.
While I found parts of this book interresting I was dissapointed that it focused so much on the how without going into the why and did not go into any real depth instead it suggested other books to read. I will PM kaetzchen for their addy and hope to get to the PO next week.
sent on today
