Product Description
The Wicca Handbook is both a tutorial for new witches and an exceptionally well-organized reference book for experienced practitioners. It guides us through the first steps in becoming a witch and explores many Wiccan traditions, initiations, and magical practices. The Wiccan year-the eight Sabbats-along with many of its rituals and ceremonies are examined. Holland also provides the background of every facet of witchcraft, such as spells for every occasion, psychic protection, numerology, basic astrology, and the lore of stones, metals, candles, animals, and much more.
High Priestess Eileen Holland's helpful guide is rooted in practicality and intended as a working handbook, not a simple beginner's guide. The information is rich; clear directions are given, and its range of content is extensive. Spells, circles, crystals, and color magic, herbs, health, and healing are all covered with abundant direction on how to do it, when to do it, and suggestions for seeking guidance from the deities. Those who have been on their path for a few years will find this great reference book to refer to time and again.

Excellent Reference Book December 16, 2008
This book is an excellent reference book if you're already a practicioner of Wicca. I wasn't when I bought it, so it led me to even more questions and a confused reading. So, if you already know what she's talking about, then it's much easier for you to understand, but for a beginner I would not recomend it unless you are using as a dictionary or encyclopedia of sorts.
 Amazing book, great for any witch December 11, 2008
This book was very helpful not only was it informational but it was presented in a way I could understand. Eileen writes this book with intentions of it being used by everyone serious about their religon and that's who I would reccomend this to. The information in this book is great because it includes everything from correspondences to performing spells and rituals. This book is not a beginners step by step instructional book, but it is easy to follow seeing as this was the first book I ever read on wicca. The book is great for intermediate and sophisticated practioners because of all the contents it contains on different ways of trying spells, rituals, etc, if your looking for something new. I would recommend any of Eileen's books and you should definatly choose this book if your new, Eileen makes you feel at home and informs you how important it is to follow the rules of wicca at the same time. Definatly one of my favorite picks.
A welcome, easy-to-use contribution to metaphysical studies shelves October 7, 2008
The Wicca Handbook is more than a guide for Wiccans; anyone curious about about benevolent, eclectic witchcraft is sure to enjoy this handbook to essential tools for casting spells for health, fertility, love, and more. Chapters inform the reader about the process of becoming a witch, the craft of casting spells, the significance or natural correspondence of things ranging from colors, metals, and gemstones to letters, numbers, and animals (for example, "Venus is the lynx's planet, autumn its season. The lynx is sacred to love goddesses Lug, Mafdet, and Toa'lalit.") A welcome, easy-to-use contribution to metaphysical studies shelves.

Everything you need along your Pagan Path June 19, 2008
This is a great book for someone who already has the basics. We studied this book in our online study group. People who were new to the Craft were a little confused. There is a lot of excellent information conatined in this book! It is perfect for someone who has been practicing a year or more and wants to take their knowledge to the next level. I believe every Pagan individual should have a copy of this book on thier magical shelves!
