As well as having lots of space for day-by-day notes throughout the year, it includes so much more. There's practical things to try like 'The Magic of Rosemary', 'Moon Phases and Planting', and 'Mirror Scrying'. There's also anecdotes about medieval customs, recipes and details about historical and mythological characters.
Much of it is written as though by a 17th century girl called Verity Moss, who was the character in the novel The Path of Verity Moss, also by Judith Page and Paul F Newman. Although the accounts of this time-travelling herbalist's apprentice are fictionalised, much of what is in these two books is well-researched history and folklore.
Verity Moss - A Perpetual Diary Almanac would make a lovely gift for a fellow witch, or just something to get as a treat for yourself to help you keep inspired over the year ahead.
Judith Page is a storyteller and poet, whose books aim to bring mystery and magic alive.
You can view Verity Moss on Amazon
