Reviews

"Phoenix Silverstar defines a spell as 'a mechanism for making the possible probable.' 'Remember, ' she says, 'magic is not miracles.' Primarily but not exclusively designed for Wiccans, Spells from Scratch is a comprehensive grimoire addressing all aspects of spellcraft, from ethics to elements. Detailed instructions, correspondences, ingredients, incantations, and examples are provided to craft effective spells for every need: healing, transformation, protection, love, and beauty. A valuable addition to any magickal library."--Oberon Zell, author of Grimoire for the Apprentice Wizard and headmaster of Grey School of Wizardry

"This book covers the basics and more; it is perfect for the beginner. If you have been practicing for years, there are some new tricks that you can pick up. It is easy to read and understand; she presents the material well. I highly recommend this book. It needs to be in your library."--Tish Owen, author of Spell it Correctly

"If you only have one spellbook on your shelf, I'd recommend this one. Not only will it have suggestions but the material inside can be referenced time and time again, especially when the reader needs a refresh on their skills."--Facing North
