Review: Such an uplifting, passionate read! - Let me start this review by saying that this book was an absolute pleasure to read. I lavished in every page - from the personal, intimate writing style to the fresh take on neo-pagan witchcraft, it had me hooked. Herstik’s writing style drips with encouragements of creativity in your craft, stresses on witchcraft as a form of self-love, and opens the reader to an out-of-the-box take of what a truly modern witch is like. I especially love that the book comes off as half teacher, half friend. The casual yet empowering approach of the subject at hand makes me *want* to practice my craft in a way that feels true and special to me. As for the technical stuff, Herstik covers most of the basics - from various methods of grounding, cleansing, charging and consecrating, to taking ritual baths, reading the tarot, incorporating astrology, herbs, crystals and the moon, into your craft, the book touches on many a subject and suffices as a good basic introduction to the craft. It even delves into topics such as creating your sacred space, designing your altar, and even dabbling in fashion magick, glamor, and much more. I would definitely recommend “Craft” for anyone looking for a truly magickal, inspiring perspective on witchcraft. It was a beautifully written, extremely influential read. For what it lacks in historical depth it makes up for in refreshing, innovative outlook on different, exciting ways to approach your craft, and automatically building a deeper and more intimate connection with yourself by doing that. If you’re looking for a deep, complex introduction into the history of witchcraft, this is not for you. But if you’re looking for, literally, a guide on how to be a modern witch in this fast-paced world, and weaving magick into the mundane fabric of everyday life, then I would definitely recommend this book to any practitioner.
Review: Absolute must have - This is an absolutely fantastic book. I’ve read hundreds of books on both the craft and Wicca and this book truly touches on everything you really need to know to delve deep into witchcraft. I love the authors modern writing approach and I thoroughly recommend any aspiring witch to read this. It’s really refreshing that this book isn’t written from a Wiccan perspective. Right from the get go you absorbs a huge amount of information. Honestly can’t recommend it highly enough.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ One stop Magickal “catch-all” Witchcraft resource.
*by A***Y on 16 April 2018*

As a lifelong hereditary & eclectic Witch my requirements for a Magickal text are top notch. In writing ‘Craft’ Ms Herstik has absolutely hit the nail on the head. Not only is it a beautiful hardbound book (if you ordered the UK version), it’s laid out as an easy to use guide. There are moon charts, crystal lists, rituals and Tarot reading lessons among other juicy uses. We also get to know the author and her Witchery too. Which makes this Witch book warm, useful and a must have for ALL MAGICKAL libraries.
