Product Description
Do you work magic with herbs? Do you use them in spells, for talismans or simply use their innate powers? If you don't have "Cunningham's Encyclopedia of Magical Herbs, "you need to get it right away. This book has become a classic in its field. Paul Beyerl, a respected author on herbs calls it ..".an essential reference book by students of herbalism and magick alike ... Scott's personable charm touches every page... I highly recommend this book." And Jeanne Rose, famous author of books on herbs and developer of an herbal course says "I love books like this ... It is accessible, easy to read, and with its encompassing index (all too often neglected), simple to use as well." Over 200,000 people already have this book and use it frequently.
In this edition of the book (it's expanded and revised on the 15th anniversary of original publication) you will find the magical properties and folklore of over 400 herbs! You'll also find lists of herbs based on their magical powers, their genders, their planetary rulers, and more. Perhaps the most important list is the folk name cross-reference. With that information, when a recipe calls for "bramble, " you'll know it needs blackberry. Or if the magic calls for "enebro," you'll know you that is juniper.
The main part of this book is the listings of the herbs. Each one includes names, associations, and magical attributions. Violets can be used for protection, luck, love, and more. Primrose is for protection and love. Garlic is for protection, healing, exorcism, lust, and prevention of theft.
This book is considered a classic. It is probably consulted more than any other book on this subject. If you want to learn the secrets of magical herbs, this book is a must!

5.0 out of 5 stars
A very good buy,
By joanne (nottingham, notts United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Encyclopaedia of Magical Herbs (Llewellyn's Sourcebook Series) (Paperback)
when reading books on witchcraft you usually only find a small herb index at the back of the book. So I was well chuffed when I found a whole book on the subject. With it being the only one i had seen so far I had some misgivings about the quality of the work, but these were washed away the second I opend the book and was flooded with coherent information on how to use herbs to their best effect as well as the encyclopedia itself. This book is a must for anyone who plans to use herbs in thier work.

A Magicl Book Of Herbs!!,
By Michelle Carline "~*Mickie *~" (Doncaster, South Yorkshire United Kingdom) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Encyclopaedia of Magical Herbs (Llewellyn's Sourcebook Series) (Paperback)
I only recieved my copy yesterday and I am totally hooked. I ordered this book because I am very interested in Herb Magic and I would recommend it to anyone. It's excellent for those who are new to the craft and for those who are more experienced. It's a beautiful book to just pick up and flick through and read the abundance of information it holds. There are no colour plates BUT, I like the way it's illustrated as they are all old wood cut images....very nice!Now all I need to do is order one for my friend :-)

Excellent,
By Jessica Worden (Long Beach, CA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Encyclopaedia of Magical Herbs (Llewellyn's Sourcebook Series) (Paperback)
This book is concise and simple. While it doesn't have every possible tidbit concerning each herb, it comes as close as I've seen. I really love this book. The plants are listed alphabetically, there are several crossreference guides in the back, namely; sex, elements, planets, intentions and also a folk name cross reference. There is also an extensive bibliography in the back of the book. Its incredibly handy.
