Spellwork for Self-Care: 40 Spells to Soothe the Spirit by Potter Gift

litematcha's review against another edition

Although the book states that the spells within are created without a particular path in mind, they are a mix of Wiccan practices and closed traditions. It is disingenuous to open a feminist self-care book with an Audre Lorde quote, and then pages later, tell the reader to purchase sage to ward their space. Usually, I would leave it to the discretion of the practitioner to choose spells and materials that align with their beliefs and personal ethics, but this book seems to be motivated solely for the profit made off of naive, well-meaning, beginners.
