Book Description
A guide to plant spirit ritual and witchcraft, with practical instruction on the use of botanicals especially associated with the beloved goddess Hekate and her daughters Circe and Medea. Bringing pharmakeia (the practice of plant spirit witchcraft) into contemporary times, Entering Hekate’s Garden merges historical knowledge with modern techniques. In it, author Cyndi Brannen offers her extensive insight into Hekatean ritual and witchcraft and especially its application to the Green World. The book features detailed monographs dedicated to 39 plants ranging from the esoteric such as aconite, American mandrake, and damiana to the accessible including bay laurel, dandelion, fennel, garlic, juniper, and lavender. This book blends traditional methods with the author's personal approach, emphasizing her understanding of plant spirits as allies in the witch’s journey. It includes a new taxonomy for interpreting plant energies, methods for creating new correspondences, the importance of layering, using botanicals in spells, rituals, altars, and more, as well as ways to develop meaningful relationships with the pharmakoi (master plant spirits). Poetry, petitions, and musings about pharmakeia are woven throughout. Entering Hekate’s Garden takes readers deep into the mystical world of botanical witchery in a way no other book has before.

Book Description
In our age of ecological disaster, this book joins the growing philosophical literature on vegetable life to ask how our present debates about biopower and animal studies change if we take plants as a linchpin for thinking about biopolitics. Logically enough, the book uses animal studies as a way into the subject, but it does so in unexpected ways. Upending critical approaches of biopolitical regimes, it argues that it is plants rather than animals that are the forgotten and abjected forms of life under humanist biopower. Indeed, biopolitical theory has consistently sidestepped the issue of vegetable life, and more recently, has been outright hostile to it. Provocatively, Jeffrey T. Nealon wonders whether animal studies, which has taken the "inventor" of biopower himself to task for speciesism, has not misread Foucault, thereby managing to extend humanist biopower rather than to curb its reach. Nealon is interested in how and why this is the case. Plant Theory turns to several other thinkers of the high theory generation in an effort to imagine new futures for the ongoing biopolitical debate.

Book Description
What color candle is appropriate for a justice spell? Which herbs correspond to heart problems? What can you do to strengthen a peace ritual? How can you protect your home? When is a good time to empower a healing charm? Because of her exhaustive knowledge of this subject, Eileen Holland is the expert other witches turn to when they are seeking correspondences for magickal workings. By publishing Holland's Grimoire of Magickal Correspondences, she at long last makes public the information she has been sharing privately with them for years (and which she began writing for herself as a way of organizing the information she needed for her own practice of the Craft). Holland's Grimoire of Magickal Correspondences is the ultimate resource for witches, magicians and shamans, brujas and brujos, Druids, Wiccans, Asatru and Santerians. The most comprehensive book of magickal correspondences that has ever been written, it is for everyone who practices magick or creates rituals. More than 500 separate topics are covered with a sample listing as follows: ASSERTIVENESS (See also: Aggressiveness) Mars Color: red Animal: sparrow Oil: bergamot Plant: basil, cypress Goddess: Inanna, Oya God: Ares, Mars Assertive Action: (See: Action) To Learn to Assert Yourself Stone: angelite, danburite Plant: apple The correspondences included are drawn from many cultures and traditions, including Egyptian, Mesopotamian, Mayan, African, Afro-Caribbean, Buddhist, Norse, Hindu, Greco-Roman, Chinese, Celtic and Native American. Whatever the subject of your working, you are likely to find it covered here. If you practice magick, this will quickly become the most useful book you own and the one to which you refer constantly.
