This book is about seasonal magic, that is, the stuff used by country witches. It is of the earth. This is a distillation of old wisdom from the heart, without pretence, without a need to 'get a message across'. Rites for the festivals (including Paddy's famous Rite of Chocolate!), animal and herb lore, spells, chants, recipes, folk remedies, snippets of knowledge and a candid view of the witches' world are all here, written with humour, genuine knowledge and a deep love of the subject itself, by a bona fide village witch.
