Raven Grimassi......Looking for Opinions....

Raven's good...I prefer all-around works such as those written by the Stewarts (Thw Witches Bible) and those involving seasonal as well as the herbalist approaches. It's true, though - it can be hard finding the authentic, old spells that really work - and the Italian Witchcraft book had some that were really useful. The Romanys were adept at useful spells! I haven't leafed through the "Crafting Wiccan traditions" books, so I can't comment on it, but I do recommend that you sit down and think about your own handcrafted, handwritten spells that will carry more of your own power. Using others' work is fine if you're pressed for time, but your own stuff is that much more powerful. Blessed be ~ Manda.
