That is the way it should be for this that follow this path or those looking to start.

Very straightforward and interesting. I have a little notebook full of things to try from this book. Overall, cool!

This is a good book for beginners. The full title is The Complete Grimoire: Magickal Practices and Spells for Awakening Your Inner Witch. It's full of charts, information, illustrations, etc. It's got a lot of information but it's easy to read. I recommend it.

I loved this book, it gave a good insight into the author’s take on witchcraft (I understand that there are many different types).

It’s well organised and set out logically so a beginner can easily find the different topics that interest them. The spells were easy to understand and overall the book is fascinating.

Great for someone who wants to learn the basics.

A nice all-encompassing guide to witchcraft for those in the spooky spirit or practicing witches. Covers all the bases and looks lovely while doing so.

This is a simple to follow introductory compilation of information on witchcraft. it provides a generalized view of witchcraft as a whole and does not focus on one particular area. This is an excellent starting point for anyone interested in learning about the practice and is looking to discover a different way of life. i found this book easily accessible,and it is matter of fact written in a simple style.
This book is an excellent starting point to guide you to particular areas of interst but i recommend further study if you want to learn more. I received an arc of this book via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

The Complete Grimoire: Magickal Practices and Spells for Awakening Your Inner Witch by Lidia Pradas is a beautifully illustrated book that will serve the needs of both the beginner and more experienced witch. As the title suggests this book is organized in a way that provides the reader with all of the staples of a wiccan practice in just the right amount of in depth exploration and useable information.

The Complete Grimoire is separated into nine (9) chapters and has a greatly appreciated Index at the end for quick reference. An ending point for each of the chapters is a small section entitled Things I Wish Someone Had Told Me. Here, the author gives an extra little tidbit of information that reflect the nature of the Craft, which is one of learning as you go and formulating your own resonance with what you’ve learned to make it more completely your own.

Chapter 1: Witchcraft FAQ’s dives right into commonly asked questions about practice and the Craft and dispels the myth and glamour surrounding witchcraft and identifying as a witch. Topics include coven work vs. Solitary, the male terminology used for a witch, the types of witches and their practice and more.

….. To simplify it, all Wiccans are pagans, but not all pagans are Wiccans. Most Wiccans are witches, but not all witches are Wiccans. Some pagans are witches, and some witches are pagans….1.

Each chapter takes the reader through an organized process of work that involves your physicality, such as acquiring tools and preparing for Sabbats, as well as developing the subtle skills of energetic practice, meditation and visualization.

I am always interested in the approach an author takes when writing about the Sabbats and how to celebrate. Chapter 4: The Wheel of the Year was one of my favorite chapters in content and presentation. Ms. Pradas begins the year with Yule and each Sabbat is lovingly treated with correspondences and suggestions for activities. A recipe is included as well to complete the connection between earth and the celebrant.

Subsequent chapters cover all of the basics of Crystals (Ch5), Herbs (Ch6), Divination (Ch7) and Working with Spirits and Deities (Ch8). The final Chapter 9: Correspondences, Rituals and Spells brings all that has preceded into a palpable and usable practice. Topics such as Timing, Astrology, Candle Magick and more are presented with versatility in mind and exemplifying the resourceful nature of the Craft and the witch. The practical nature of witchcraft is addressed in defining the use and nature of talismans and amulets, spell crafting and being mindful of glamours in spell work. This final chapter provides an excellent jumping off point into deeper explorations of all of the components of witchcraft with tastings of the best pieces to whet the appetite.

Would I Recommend:

What I truly appreciated about The Complete Grimoire: Magickal Practices and Spells for Awakening Your Inner Witch by Lidia Pradas was the amount of information provided without the lengthy discourse on each topic that is often the staple of a book such as this. Everything that was offered was a harmonious balance of containing nothing more and nothing less than what would teach, but not detract from the simplicity of much of the Craft’s core essence. This approach lends itself very nicely to being able to jump right into the work and experience the Craft from the first pages. BROOM’S UP for The Complete Grimoire: Magickal Practices and Spells for Awakening Your Inner Witch by Lidia Pradas!

This is quite a delightful array of spells and information pertaining to a new with as well as a novice. I found the spells easy to understand with clear and precise directions. Thoroughly magical. I definitely recommend this book to anyone who practices witchcraft.

The Complete Grimoire is a great beginners guide to witchcraft. It was informative without being overwhelming and included basic guides to different paths of magic and witchcraft. This is great for anybody looking to learn more about witchcraft in general, but if you already have a basic knowledge of witchcraft, you might want something more advanced. The illustrations were wonderful! I really enjoyed reading this one!
