Herb Craft

A Guide to the Shamanic and Ritual use of Herbs
by Susan Lavender and Anna Franklin
Published by Capall Bann

I have a bookshelf full of herbals, but none like this. It's already dog eared from avid dipping into!

If you want to read more than all the usual actives and chemical components of a plant then buy this. It's accurate informative whatever path you follow.

At £19.99 (price as of July 2003) it is pricey - but well worth it. I pulled it off the bookstore shelf then put it back numerous times before finally giving in. It's irresistible and exquisite.

It gives the botanical names, planetary ruler, correspondences, folk history, folk magick, festivals, best time to harvest, elements and some wonderful recipes.
It's easy to follow and read, very thoughtful and gives reminders of those toxic plants.

For the practitioner or lay person this is a true treasure. Read it with childlike enthusiasm and receive mature wisdom.
