Take control of your life with this essential handbook of everyday spells for the modern witch, filled with beautiful illustrations and helpful tips. The world's most popular fortune-telling techniques--crystal balls, tarot cards, and palm reading--originated with the Romany, whose belief in magic, spell-casting, and prophecy has endured for nine centuries. Now, in this beautifully illustrated book, Gillian Kemp reveals time-honored secrets of the supreme practitioners of divination and the mystic arts. She has compiled a practical collection of good spells, drawn from time spent with some of Europe's dwindling Romany groups, which are easy to follow and use everyday ingredients such as candles, flowers, ribbons and string. From love charms to spells for money, health and happiness, this fun and attractive spell book keeps alive the colorful traditions of the Romany people and promises great luck in the future for true believers.
I don't even know how to describe this book, because it gives me the chills, in a good way though. I only started casting spells recently. I am a beginner too. So far I have done 2 spells from the book and they both worked!!! I am not even a Wiccan and honestly before buying this book I never believed in any of this until I saw the reviews and bought the book. The spells are pretty easy to follow and the ingredients are easy to find too. I highly recommend it!!!!!
FABULOUS BOOK!

Hello all! :o) I just purchased this little book on New Years Day. For starters I love the cover and the old feel and look it has to it. I also love the simplicity of Gillian Kemp spell writing. I have been dabbling and reading spell books since I was 16 (24 now) and this has got to be one of the best. I must admit when I first became interested in using spells I was ignorant to how they work so the books I brought and spells I used never worked because I didn't understand what I was doing. Not that it is a hard thing to do. The most significant thing in doing spell work is to stay focused on what u want from the spell at the time your doing it, put all your energy into and most importantly believe that it WILL work! I tried my first spell "To get a Lover to Call" on January 2nd. About 30 mins after I did the spell he called! I was so shocked! LOL And the spell is so so simple. I was going to type it on here but I think its only fair if you go and purchase the book. Worst case scenario it doesn't work and you can return the book. I seriously doubt that you will though! PS Feel free to email me ([email protected]) regarding any information that you may have on spell work and any questions that you have about the book or spell work in general. I also learned the best way to master doing spells is from communicating with others who are also very interested. Take Care!
A Must for any witches library!

It is packed full with wonderful little useful spells! Also it looks old like it was passed down from generation to generation (which is a BIG plus). Not to mention that if you do the spells right and your not just goofing off, you get wonderful results. This is also good for begginers as well as experts. For me even this was my first spell book! If I could I'd give this book 6 stars!I might add too that most of the things you need are household items such as garlic!
Highly recommended

This is a nice book for quick & simple spells. Sometimes you are looking for something to quickly help an particular aspect of your life, and this book is full of ways to achieve your desire. I was already familiar with some of the spells, and there are many which are 'new.' Includes areas devoted to love, health, pets, wealth, and happiness. That about covers the bases! An added plus: it is also very attractive. It's printed to look like an old spell book which has been passed down through a family, and it succeeds.
simple and easy to follow

This book is great for people who don't like dealing with complicated spells. I have read and done some of the spells in this book and I have to say the spells actually work! It is one book you will keep forever and pass down to your children. I recommend this book to anyone looking for simple spells that work and are easy to follow.
