About this title

Review

Have you ever touched wood for luck? "If so, you are practicing a form of tree magic," explains psychic Cassandra Eason in A Complete Guide to Magic and Ritual. In fact, the Celtic Druids touched sacred oaks to appease tree spirits when someone made a rash promise, she says. Even ancient Greeks and early Christians believed in the sacred power of wood. Like the tapping of wood, many of our customs and superstitions stem from a strong human connection to the natural world, explains Eason. Not surprisingly, when she teaches magical rituals, she often recommends props that can be found in nature, such as trees, shells, clay, herbs, and seeds. For instance, "dandelions act as transmitters for love" and "rosemary is an herb of passion, love and healing." And those whose "domestic harmony is being threatened by outside hostility should make an infusion of fresh parsley." She even offers a section on weather magic, where she speaks of the west wind's power to enhance "love and reconciliation" and the east wind's ability to bless "new beginnings." Eason teaches numerous other rituals, such as how to become more prosperous, divert gossip away from you, bless a union, and even "merge into the background when you are in a dangerous situation emotionally or physically." --Gail Hudson
