Mansions of the Moon for the Green Witch: A Complete Book of Lunar Magic (Green Witchcraft Series, 6) Reviews

I honestly loved this book. It was the first book by Ann Moura I purchased, and I enjoy it alot more than some others, but that's another story...
I personally thought this was a wonderful way to combine very old techniques and symbols into a modern system of witchcraft. Present in the book are not only the mansions of the moon, but various fixed stars and other astrological bodies that Ann presents. One of things I am grateful for is how she presents the classic information on the Mansions, without white washing it, before giving ideas as to how the information can be interpreted in a modern way.
The book is divided into four parts, with the first being a lesson on the origins of the mansions of the moon, as well as they're various names and uses, which, in part three, are gone into in depth, each with they're own magickal working. The second part is about blending energies- which is the main theme of this book. Moon phase, moon sign, and says of the week are all taken into effect in this book.
Parts three and four make up the meat, providing an in-depth look at the Mansions in accordance with astrological timing as well as the current moon phase. Part three gives magical workings for each Mansion in each phase of the waxing moon, and part four does the same, only instead utilizing the energies of the waning moon.
I think this is a great book for anyone looking to add depth and a new modern twist to lunar magic, going beyond phases and moon signs and into more detailed work. It is a book where a non Wiccan or Witch Pagan wouldn;t have to chop up the book in order for it to reapply it to they're own practice and spirituality, although she menstions the three fold law, and in the cases of some spells, the God and Goddess. -
Personally not my favorite, mainly because I am not Wiccan and this is full of Wicca related stuff. Weirdly enough there’s a lot of numerology things in it and a bit of alchemical

Juhu ich habe Glück gehabt. Die Autorin konnte mich überzeugen und ich freue mich schon darauf einige ihrer Informationen mit in meine Arbeit miteinfließen zulassen. Das Buch ist super verständlich geschrieben und die Autorin erwähnt auch öfters das es eben ihre Art ist mit Magie umzugehen man es aber nicht 1:1 so umsetzten muss. Es sind nur Vorschläge, eine Einsicht in ihre Praxis.
Mir hat es sehr gut gefallen und ich bin froh das ich endlich mal wieder ein gutes neues Buch habe um mich weiter zu entwickeln. -
Wonderfully researched book. I love the fact that it is a book i can constantly come back to and use as a reference whenever i need to. I learned me and my boyfriends planetary rulers to our zodiac sign which is super cool. It has lots of detailed information regarding the moon and using it in your craft. It's also great to use as a reference guide so that you can develop your own ways of doing things in your craft. I think this book is good for those starting out in wicca/witchcraft. It really helps me starting out in my craft.
