Product Description

A guide to the outdoor world and nature-based spirituality for real witches everywhere. Kate West explains how to set up your own sacred space in the garden and how to grow herbs for use in spells and remedies.

Contents:
• Nature based spirituality – Witchcraft by another name.
• How the garden fits into your life and your Craft.
• The garden as a sacred space for working ritual.
• The elemental garden – earth, air, fire, water and spirit.
• The garden as a medicine store – herbs and herbal remedies.
• The smallest of gardens – window boxes, pots and containers.
• Plant associations – a list of plants relating to various aspects of the Craft.
• Planting and tending by the natural cycles – the lunar calendar and the wheel of the year.

Witchy Gardening! 18 Feb 2005
By Clare VINE™ VOICE
Format:Paperback
Kate West's guide to Gardening the Witches way.

This is a wonderful book, so much information, including how to grow herbs to use for spells, planning your garden in fact everything magickally related for your garden! And if you have 20 acres or 20cm it doesn't matter anyone can really get something out of this book.

This is not a comprehensive guide to herbs etc, it might be good to use another herbs book in conjunction with this too. This is also brilliant to use with The Real Witches Kitchen I own both and they both work extremely well together.

Kate has also included information about Witchcraft so this would be a brilliant book for someone new to Witchcraft as well, though I would recommend getting a couple of Kate's other books if you are new too. And she has written some really good suggestions for Sabbats too.

All in all a brilliant book, and brilliant information as always.

By Mirage HALL OF FAME TOP 50 REVIEWER
Format:Paperback
The same size as 'The Real Witches' Kitchen'(Pub by Element), 'The Real Witches' Garden is perfect company on the bookshelf. Both books have the most beautiful front covers!
Written in the typical Kate West style, this book sends you off into the Gardener's World, even if you are not normally green-fingered and may only have access to a window box!
The contents have obviously been well researched and tested.
Twelve chapters(178 pages) take you through to the Three Appendices which include 'What Witchcraft really Is', so a good starting point for the novice to The Craft, as well!
This section includes a definition of the eight Sabbats(Wheel of the Year) and follows on to a 'Terms and Definitions' section - a handy glossary of all you need to know!

Reading this book made me realise the importance of having your own witches garden, be it large or small. It's very easy to buy what you need online but things that you have grown yourself will always be a hundred times more magical. Really gets you taking a closer look at the environment & how you can gain spiritually from it aswell as helping to preserve it.
