Crystal's 4 Star Review Wonderful book to have on hand for any Pagan interested in some of the history of "wise women" or "cunning folk", basically anyone who used natural resources in the past. Basically, those who were eventually called Witches. I liked the fact that it stayed middle of the road a...
I've collected below some quotes from amazon reviews, attributed as we go... "'Black Horse, White Horse' condenses into less than 100 pages pretty much every facet of what horses have meant to us over the ages, covering beliefs, traditions, folklore, symbolism, mythology and superstition across ma...
This is a reblog from https://druidlife.wordpress.com/2012/08/18/community-cursing/ where I reviewed this book back in 2012 I’ve just read Melusine Draco’s fascinating book By Spellbook & Candle: Cursing, Hexing, Bottling & Binding.

The quote comes from the opening of 'Black Horse White Horse' - a book about working shamanically with horses, horse spirit, horse energy. Being a portal, it's quite a short book, ideal for people who are new to the subject. Being a Melusine Draco title, we of course aren't talking about 'horse' ...
This is an excerpt from the opening to Melusine Draco's Traditional witchcraft for the woods and forests. One of the things I particularly admire about Melusine is her earthed and practical approach to all subjects. For her, unsurprisingly 'the wood' is not a simple concept - she writes extensive...
