About this deal

It's a silly foray into the absolute basics of summoning personal intent and casting rudimentary spells, but that doesn't make it bad. The most common criticism is that it’s “tumblr witchcraft 101,” and contains almost nothing related to occultism. As both a Millennial and a witch myself, I have a deep, long-standing problem with spiritual books with deceptive claims and covers. This book is all about making a ritual out of thing that you want to improve upon, like upgrading your wardrobe.

I don’t like dogs, but I can tell that its cons being “Sorta dumb, totally filthy, will absolutely betray you to your enemies” isn’t that funny.I've long thought of myself as a "lazy witch", because I sometimes don't do much performative magical practices because I have to binge-watch 'Stranger Things' or some crap. But if you are looking for a lighthearted book that teaches you how to use some of the practices of witchcraft in a simple and practical way, with the intention of taking better care of yourself, then you will probably enjoy this book. I really respect this book for including a section for men, androgynous women, or nonbinary people who aren’t into makeup and jewelry and whatnot.

Basic Witches: How to Summon Success, Banish Drama, and Raise Hell with your Coven by Jaya Saxena and Jess Zimmerman was one of them. And to that I say that this is a starting point for people like me, who are curious but overwhelmed by the amount of books and material on the internet about witches.But it’s a great guide to useful everyday spellcraft like “How to Clothe Yourself in Literal Darkness,” “A Spell to Ditch Friend Envy,” and “A Spell for Embracing Failure. Some of the "rituals" are a little rediculous and should not be conflated with real magick, and some of the punky overtones are odd, but it's not nearly as atrocious as I've seen some elders say. Yes, the contents have a disheartening number of spells listed, but their emphasis on using intuition and their suggestions as a springboard for your own spells makes me hopeful the book is good. By completing your purchase, you agree to Audible's Conditions of Use and authorise Audible to charge your designated card or any other card on file.

These aren’t just superficial stuff like “nice, handsome, and rich” but qualities that would make for a compatible partner whom you’re attracted to. Oh, also, there's an emphasis on consent, but then follows it up in the next chapter talking about how the author had a sex spell cast on her marriage (so her and her spouse), but didn't inform her husband. This method of physical and mental alignment harkens to how incorporating long-term goals into your daily routine helps you to become your best self.I have mixed feelings about the spell that involves exchanging objects with a friend that represent insecurities, and reframing them as positive thoughts or qualities. it’s more like a five minute guide on: how to use charms in positive visualization, play with tea leaves/tarot cards/runes, dress witchy, and find self-empowerment.
