As someone who has practiced Wicca for 20 years -- this is one of my two mainstays -- along with Cunningham's book on herbs, oils & brews. With those two books you don't need any other books on spells -- because you create your own. Most important his ethics are unimpeachable -- which you can't say about some Wiccan spell books. Two thumbs up on this and any other Cunningham book. I regularly buy Cunningham's books to give to non-Wiccans to explain the religion because I know he does it properly. Blessed be!

I been into 'Rock' magic my whole life because of my mom. This was my first book I have ever read and it really got me into it. It's a very good book, for a beginner, learning how everything works, but for more experienced people you might want to look at something different because this is a nice book but is really like a 'gemstone magic for dummys'. I still refer back to it when I need a quick look into a stone I don't know much about. I have and will always refer this to friends and family!

Merely lists chapter numbers vs NAMES of chapters. Have owned paperback version for many yrs and reference it often, wanted nook version for on the go. Took 15 minutes of searching and page flipping to find the STONES chapter that details metaphysical meanings. The search feature isnt spectacularly helpful either.
Sorry, but $3.99 would be plenty for this.

but a little hard to use in the NOOK format. I'll be referencing this one again and again.

Lots of great information. But sadly the gem insert will not load. Which is a shame since I have many gems that were my dads that I cannot identify. Don't know if anyone who has the power to fix this glich reads reviews but it would nice to get it fixed. Good book to have but not having the table available makes me wish I hadn't wasted my money. So if you want the table, don't buy.
