Product Description
Product Description
Discover the ancient lore, household techniques, and spiritual wisdom that will help turn every day into a time of magic, respect for all, and love of the Goddess, when you get "Wheel of the Year" by Pauline Campanelli.
"Wheel of the Year" takes you on a month-by-month journey of discovery through seasonal aspects of Paganism practiced both in recent and ancient times. Just look at a few of the things shared in this gentle, loving book:
For December: The Magic of Mistletoe; The Ritual Burning of the Yule Log; Magical Uses of Ashes from the Yule Fire; A Ritual for Cutting Sacred Fir; The Pagan Symbolism of Santa Claus.
For March: Nine Magical Woods for the Beltane Fire; Psychic Skills for Working Magic; Making and Using the Magic (Black) Mirror; Telepathy; The Ouija Board; A Ritual for Opening the Heart Chakra.
For May: Seeing Faeries; A May Wine Ritual; Symbolism of the Maypole; Sacred Marriages; Hawthorn Protection Amulet.
For August: Celebration of the Grain Harvest; Ritual for Baking Sacred Bread; Making an Onion Charm; Magical Symbolism of Garlic; Natural Dyes and Inks.
For October: Apple Traditions; A Hazelnut Charm; The Man in Black; Ritual Costuming and Mask Making; Divination for Samhain.
This is only a small amount of the lore and a few of the many activities you will learn for each of these five months, in "Wheel of the Year." The other seven months of the year are covered in depth, too, and each chapter has beautiful illustrations by Dan Campanelli.
Whether you live in a city, suburb, or farm and whether you live by yourself, with a partner, or with a family, "Wheel of the Year "will reintroduce you to the magic that is all around you. For Wiccans, Pagans, Witches, and people interested in using the past to enhance today and the future, "Wheel of the Year "is a must.

The sounds of December days are muffled under a blanket of snow, whether the gray and white days of falling snow, or the sunny days of blue skies and glistening snow. Read the first page

Format:Paperback
When I bought this book I had great expectations. I have to say that upon reading it, I was somewhat dissappointed. The information is very "localised" to the author. Anyone considering buying the book should keep this in mind. Those in the UK may find it hard to relate to the activities etc mentioned. Id say there are books out there that are definatley better suited to the UK market. That aside its an interesting read. Kind of like a story teller feel to the text. Its not a reference book as such.Id say its a read and pass along style book simply because, once read I havnt picked it up since.

A glowing, inspiring guide to incorporating seasonal rituals into your life. The author's great love for Paganism shines through every page. The one drawback is that much of the "historical" information on holiday customs is terribly inaccurate. If it were only well-researched, I'd give it a ten! But even as it stands, it's a good investment.

Format:Paperback
This book gives detailed and useful suggestions of activities and crafts for the Sabbats. However, I found the descriptions of the seasons too wordy. Also, the crafts and activities are definitely written for people who live in the country AND have a lot of time on their hands. Having neither of these two requirements in my life, I found the book did not help me at all in my seasonal celebrations.
