These 4 or 5-star reviews represent the opinions of the individuals who posted them and do not reflect the views of Etsy. I was reading until my eyes wouldn't stay open, so it had to have something unexpected to keep me hooked. The 103 third parties who use cookies on this service do so for their purposes of displaying and measuring personalized ads, generating audience insights, and developing and improving products. Nice and hefty, wild and wheeling, full of good language, luxuriant descriptions, utter bizzarity—yes, yes, yes.

Filled with great information and a plethora of spell and ritual work you can adapt to your personal craft, no matter your path. I'm really excited to see what the rest of the book will hold, since we didn't even get to the most interesting part (the spells) yet. A handpicked selection of stories from BBC Future, Culture, Worklife and Travel, delivered to your inbox every Friday. To perpetuate that you could be sick or unlucky because someone looked at you wrong or with jealousy is just plain dangerous and wrong.

As well, I had just come off translating The Shadow Book of Ji Yun – a collection of 18th-Century Chinese weird tales. Here we have delights like a sly young witch impaling a buffonish paramours who has overstayed his sweaty welcome up on a high city gate, a dapper American ad exec in Paris being led around by a crafty French secret agent (maybe), an ancient malevolent witch in a dank basement lair chock-a-block with mouldering spell ingredients, both a police inspector and a sexual aggressor turned into very appropriate dirty animals, an internationally weaponized hallucinogenic drug trade, a hapless priest retired to a country barn which becomes the site of an extremely magickal showdown, a little girl and her fowl, a wily jazz trio, and on and on and on. Add a few chance encounters, a chorus of some more angry witches, a strung-out jazzman or two, a weaponized LSD program, and a cache of rifles buried in the Bois de Bologne—and that’s a novel! As a character, I could not get a read on who she was or what she wanted, and she just seemed incredibly flat and awful.

Oliver is a patrician, fun-loving American who has come to Paris to start a literary journal with the help of friends in D. It’s a collection of twenty nine Baba Yaga tales, accompanied by information about the different tales and their history, and illustrations from artists spanning 200 years. Author Madame Pamita completes each chapter by sharing how to put the elder-witch’s wisdom into practice, with instructions for Ukrainian folk embroidery, weaving wreaths from herbs, using magical poppets, and working with the spirits of the forest, the hearth, and the sauna.Vidot himself realizes toward the end “how absolutely large and great one very small thing can be, and how, with sweet, tender vigilance, one can take these small, fleeting moments and build them into something eternal. He suggests that the pestle was first to be used by Baba Yaga, because it may be used as a weapon (as such, it was used in a number of rituals) and the mortar was added later by an association.

Even her home is both house and chicken, making her, yes, housebound in a sense, but not in any way 'tied down'. Baba Yaga often bears the epithet Baba Yaga kostyanaya noga ('bony leg'), or Baba Yaga s zheleznymi zubami ('with iron teeth') [6] and when inside her dwelling, she may be found stretched out over the stove, reaching from one corner of the hut to another.She has a popular YouTube Channel for teaching witchcraft, she hosts two podcasts: "Baba Yaga's Magic" and "Magic and the Law of Attraction" and she is the author of Baba Yaga’s Book of Witchcraft, The Book of Candle Magic, and Madame Pamita's Magical Tarot.
