3.5 stars, but I can't get the setting to do that.
A solid collection of material on how to do magical protection. Not only spells and rituals but also discussion of mindsets for protection, from a Wiccan perspective. If you're not familiar with specifics of protection work this is a good starting point. Penczak covers how do protect yourself from the perspective of the Hermetic elements, herbalism, stones, and other forms of spell work. While I am not Wiccan and do not ascribe to the philosophy, this is solid material.
