In this book the author tells about each Sabbat of Wiccans。 Descriptions are quite short and has basic knowledge you need to know if you are a beginner in Wicca belief。 And each celebration has soe spells included at each chapter's end。 I was happy to see mention Latvia （I live in Lithuania so our Pagan celebrations are pretty the same）， gays and transgender people very shortly in some chapters。 In this book the author tells about each Sabbat of Wiccans。 Descriptions are quite short and has basic knowledge you need to know if you are a beginner in Wicca belief。 And each celebration has soe spells included at each chapter's end。 I was happy to see mention Latvia （I live in Lithuania so our Pagan celebrations are pretty the same）， gays and transgender people very shortly in some chapters。 。。。more

Lisa's work is always enjoyable to read。 This is the first book I've had that goes into a bit more detail about each Sabbat。 All my other books just tell me when they are。 It was nice to finally read a bit of history about it all。 Lisa's work is always enjoyable to read。 This is the first book I've had that goes into a bit more detail about each Sabbat。 All my other books just tell me when they are。 It was nice to finally read a bit of history about it all。 。。。more

Great introductory bookI wish I had found this book 5-10 years ago， it has great recommendations and explanations of each of the holidays， and it is really accessible even if you have 0 knowledge base。 As an 8 year practitioner， I have found some things in this book that were interesting ideas。

I rate these books usually as a 3。 They are great for beginners and if I was a beginner I would probably rate them a 4 or 5。 I like to read them as refresher and to let my friends who are new witches know。 They are very informative and a good launching platform。

Overall， this book isn't bad。 It is definitely designed for beginners。 As someone who isn't a beginner anymore， the content was a bit boring minus a few spells here and there。 If the book had more of this content compared to long bouts about the history of each Sabbat， I would have enjoyed it more。 Overall， this book isn't bad。 It is definitely designed for beginners。 As someone who isn't a beginner anymore， the content was a bit boring minus a few spells here and there。 If the book had more of this content compared to long bouts about the history of each Sabbat， I would have enjoyed it more。 。。。more

Just what I neededThis is a wonderful beginning guide to the wheel of the year。 It gives a good overview without being bogged down with too much information。 I love how the author always encourages you to learn more and go with your intuition。 She stresses different people have different perspectives。 I love that most about these guides。

Informative overview on Wiccan celebrations Neatly tying in various history around the world， focusing on Celtic and Anglo Saxon traditions， this book is a great overview of how the wheel of the year has evolved over time。 It is especially informative with how the traditions have been named and evolved to what modern Wiccans celebrate today。

I wanted to know dates， associations， and a bit of background so I can decide how to celebrate it myself， and the book delivered。 I also appreciated the recommended further reading at the end！

Once again， a very basic guide from Lisa Chamberlain （or a group of authors working under this pseudonym）。 Like I said about her other books， I desperately wish the author could go at least a little more in-depth。 Actually， some parts of the book read like a school essay: "many animals hibernate， and the snow covering the ground seems to have a quieting effect on the landscape" - technically， yes， this is what happens in winter， so I can't really protest， but in my opinion， the only surprise her Once again， a very basic guide from Lisa Chamberlain （or a group of authors working under this pseudonym）。 Like I said about her other books， I desperately wish the author could go at least a little more in-depth。 Actually， some parts of the book read like a school essay: "many animals hibernate， and the snow covering the ground seems to have a quieting effect on the landscape" - technically， yes， this is what happens in winter， so I can't really protest， but in my opinion， the only surprise here is to find this kind of information in this kind of a book。That said， this work is， once again， a good enough starting point for someone who just needs to start somewhere， and with a helpful 'Further Reading' suggestions section。 And once again， very accessibly priced， especially in a Kindle edition， so one can't really get too picky about it。 。。。more

This book is a great STARTING POINT into Wicca， but I do wish it had gone more into some recipes and modern practices， along with more detailed history WITH references。 I love the included information about different ways of practice based on different cultures。 Definitely do more research， but this is a nice reference and intro into pagan practices。

Good information without getting weirdI’m reading these books as research into Wiccan beliefs and practices rather than as a potential practitioner。 I really appreciate the author’s insistence on stating the lineage of any and all practices distinguishing between practices that have ancient roots and those which are modern inventions。 I find the history aspects particularly fascinating。 I also like that she does not insist that her interpretation is the correct one and she continually reminds th Good information without getting weirdI’m reading these books as research into Wiccan beliefs and practices rather than as a potential practitioner。 I really appreciate the author’s insistence on stating the lineage of any and all practices distinguishing between practices that have ancient roots and those which are modern inventions。 I find the history aspects particularly fascinating。 I also like that she does not insist that her interpretation is the correct one and she continually reminds the reader that any practice can be tailored to individual needs。 The best part of this series is the author’s informative tone。 Too many new age books waste the reader’s time using pseudoscience and twisted logic trying to back up bizarre spiritualism practices。 Instead， this book merely lays out a practice， gives the historical context， and leaves the reader to make the final choice。 I will definitely continue reading her books 。。。more

Great overviewGood overview for the beginner with careful takeaways and loving suggestions。 Recommend for beginners or those being a reminder of their beginnings

This book gave me a wonderful beginners knowledge of the wheel of the year。 A lot of the information I had heard before but with each Sabbat there was always a new bit of information that I never heard。 Great ideas on different ways to celebrate and keep the true meanings of these points of the year in your practice。 I recommend。

A Great Start！This book is exactly what it claims to be， a starters guide and it fully performs perfectly at its task。 It's also a great refresher course for those that may have left the craft and come back。 Well worth a read！ A Great Start！This book is exactly what it claims to be， a starters guide and it fully performs perfectly at its task。 It's also a great refresher course for those that may have left the craft and come back。 Well worth a read！ 。。。more
