The Illustrated Herbiary: Guidance and Rituals from 36 Bewitching Botanicals by Maia Toll

4.0

Did I need this book? - Not really. Did I buy it anyway just because it's so damn pretty? - Absolutely! This is one of the visually most appealing books out there and I love how every single herb is illustrated. Not only did Maia Toll draw the herbs but each of her piece is full of symbolism. I wouldn't use it as a herbalist reference book since it doesn't provide a lot of information. But it is very inspiring which I think was the authors goal. She really gets you to turn inward and contemplate on yourself and how you are connected to the plant kingdom. The oracle cards that are included are not the highest quality but I don't use them as an oracle anyway but enjoy them as tiny works of art.
