My blog buddy Debby asked me what the English Magic Tarot cards looked like….

Hello Gnostics,
Today I thought that we would continue our exploration of morning rituals by looking at Yoga. So put the pet outside, give the kids something to do, and make sure the neighbors aren’t watching.

This week I thought that I would show you some morning rituals that you might consider adding to your start of the day.

My thoughts:
“The Big Book of Practical Spells”, how big is it? It’s so big that I threw it up in the air and it got stuck. Sorry, I’ve been dying to use that joke.
If you are at all interested in spells, this book is a must-have. As most of you know, I am a back of the book kind of guy. There is an excellent Appendix of botanical classes and a good bibliography. The Index makes for an easy-to-navigate experience for those of us who want to review something in the book.
Having read the book, I will never look at the phrase Florida Water the same way again. I thought that it was something we Floridians drank. Who knew that the pagan community think it’s a cleaning agent. That being said, a lot of our water contains alcohol — just saying.
So, how do I score this tome of pagan wisdom? Well, as I said, I think that it is a must-have for those interested in spells. I give “The Big Book of Practical Spells” 4 1/2 stars. Run down to your favorite bookstore and pick it up. If you don’t have a local bookstore try ( http://amzn.to/28ZSfFA ) at Amazon and I’ll get a modest commission from the sale.
