Customer Reviews

Advanced and Excellent
This is my first experience with a Kate West book, and I must say I was plesantly suprised. This book is an absolute gem, packed full of ideas and techniques for developing your experience with all aspects of the Craft. I also loved the way West helps you to develop your normal 5 senses before moving onto your sixth. It also has a lovely chapter on working on the Astral Plane and creating your own astral temple, rather like "Flying Without A Broom" - D.J. Conway.
An excellent follow on to beginner's learning! Highly recommended.

an excellent book
I found The Real Witches' Craft an excellent book, especially because she focuses so strongly on earth magick. She teaches you how to raise the earth dragon to protect the environment, and so many other things that you can do practically to help our planet. Moreover, she gives you excellent guidence to learn how to attune oneself to Mother Earth. I found it most useful, especially as a solitary/kitchen witch. I would recommend this book to anyone interested in the craft, but especially to those who want a British experience. It is so nice to hear a British voice as opposed to the American voices, because of the strong Green streak that runs through so many of us British.

this is a great book
I thoroughly recommend this book for the new witch, the curious, and even the witch who has all the books under the sun; its written really well, with use of clear, concise language, and has lots to interest everyone.
