I enjoyed some parts of this book more than others. Some sections felt drawn out, but I did enjoy the author's opinions and personal touches on relatively basic concepts surrounding the wheel of the year. It made me think of my traditions more and how I am honoring each season.

Brilliant book to understand the wheel of the year in a way to personalise it to your own climate, beliefs and personal spirituality. The how to's are easy to follow and informative

I have a feeling that I will come back to this book a few times as I continue to develop my spiritual practice. What I love most is that it gives a good framework without encouraging consumerism and adherance to strict traditions. I don't come from a household that is rich in traditions, and I've been wanting to create rituals that contribute to self care, love and peace for me and my loved ones. This books does a great job of offering possibilities and ideas while providing background behind the elements of the wheel of the year.

This book is, as other people have said in their reviews, kind of very targeted to a specific circle. You can feel it in the way it's written, and the overall tone of the book. I've read this after having a general idea about the Wheel of the Year, the eight sabbats and having been around different pagan circles for a while, so it wasn't very hard to follow. If you're a complete beginner aka you have No Idea about any of this, I would say this wouldn't be the best place to start.
Despite it not being a proper research source at all, in my opinion, this is a book that gives you the point of view and experiences of another person, which I personally find pretty useful when we talk about paganism, witchcraft, and spirituality. If you pick this book up with that in mind, I'm certain you will be able to get something out of it. There was stuff I didn't really ''vibe'' with or I outright disagreed with but overall I don't regret this read.
