Synopsis

Shadow magick occupies a critical but often misunderstood role in the rich history of witchcraft. This book explores topics such as the ethical use of animal parts and bones, blood magick, dark-moon energy, and other rarely discussed aspects of witchcraft. With a focus on ethically sourcing materials and suggestions for plant-based substitutions, author Kate Freuler provides much-needed information and hands-on techniques to help you strengthen your witchcraft practice, connect to nature, protect yourself (and your kith and kin), and know yourself in a deep way. Within these pages, you will also discover methods for hexing, scrying, sex magick, and working with dark deities in addition to the magickal use of graveyard dirt and performing spells to assist the crossing of a dying loved one. The shadow work explored in Of Blood and Bones reminds us that not everything is love and light and that facing the dark side supports the quest to achieve spiritual wholeness.

Goodreads review by Amanda

Large number of spell recipes, offers little that cannot be explained on the internet, cultural appropriation, pop psychology as feel-good witchcraft, poor occult ritual structure. (To be fair, this could be said about a LOT of books!) This book is best suited for: - People who are practicing but stil......more

Goodreads review by Pseudonym

I wanted to like this book because so many people recommended it. And I just didn't. There were some cool spells and ritual suggestions. I think she gave a good, basic overview of bone-cleaning and blood safety. Here were my problems: -The idea that every witch with her salt has to do shadow work is......more
