For this blog we're going right up to date with Wiccapedia - A Modern Day White Witches' Guide by Shawn Robbins and Leanna Greenaway.
When I picked this up and read the cover I knew immediately I would enjoy it - any book that talks about texting spells or microwaving potions certainly needs a read!

| Hi-tech witchcraft anyone? |
Don't be fooled by the light-hearted blurb though, this book is an absloute gem, packed full of useful information. The authors should have an award for finally helping me to understand the magick of Numerology (no small feat given my abject fear of anything involving numbers!). I found the chapter on sharpening my psychic skills very knowledgeable (I'm just looking for a glamorous assistant to practice brain telegrams with!).

| Magick by mobile phone anyone? |
The section that I was most intrigued to read was the Cell Phone Sorcery & Microwave Magick section. I've never considered the idea that the satellite signals that surround us to power our devices are also an energy that can be utilized to supercharge spells! Admittedly you may want to warn any friends before you text them saying ".... will meet the man of their dreams" to avoid any accusations of drunk texting! As an self-admittedly lazy person any concoctions that I can ping in the mircowave are the dream so thank you ladies for the tips!
I'd recommend this book as a 'next step' after a basic 'beginners guide' type book as it delves into spell casting and also covers spirit boards etc which might be a wee bit intimidating for a newbie. It's really easy to follow and of course very ascetically pleasing, my 2007 Emo self was weeping tears of joy at the design and fonts.
Essentially it reads like a chat with two super cool witches who are eager to pass on their knowledge over a cocktail or two, it's lighthearted without straying into fluffy territory and by the same token is serious where it needs to be e.g with warnings about casting love spells and also the Dos and Don'ts of Witchcraft.
I loved this book and am really looking foward to working my way through Shawn & Leanna's other titles.
Blessed Be
