As a practicing Witch, I find myself doing all sorts of rituals in the house daily without even thinking about it consciously.

This book is one I'd recommend to anyone who'd like to incorporate a few more "witchy" rituals into their household routines. They are well written out, easy to comprehend, and don't expect the practitioner to have advanced knowledge or a plethora of ingredients.
This was a slender little volume that I enjoyed reading. It is filled with
"everyday magic" that has been passed down through the generations from a
time when pagan beliefs were widely held and commonly practiced, even by
people who embraced other faiths and beliefs. I was amazed to see small
superstitions and rituals and ways of life that I remember my grandmothers
(on both sides) believed in and practiced, very likely completely unaware
that they have their roots in witchcraft or pagan rituals. It doesn't go
into anything in any great depths, but it did serve to remind me of a lot of
things I took for granted from my childhood. When you come right down to it,
all religions and beliefs have common threads and this little volume was a
nice little show more read. It was well written with wit and humor and I enjoyed it.
It gets a 5.

More of a book to read to feel comfort in the faith than anything, this book does well to remind Wiccans that their faith doesn't end when the circle is opened. Another good book for kitchen witches.
Very nice little book. A quick read and easy things that you can incoroporate into your home and every day life. Nothing ground-breaking here, but it is a comfortable return to Scott Cunningham for those who haven't read him in a while.
This is actually more of a book of superstitions than a working manual, however I did find a few things that I'll add to my writing repitoire if not my book of shadows.
Cunningham never seems to disappoint does he? Great read. Practical workings. Easy to follow. A great addition to anyone's library.
Some interesting information and ideas here; typical of Cunningham's books.
