In a world that often pulls witches and magical practitioners away from their craft, A Witch’s Book of Days offers a way to reclaim enchantment, one day at a time. Drawing from a lifetime of study, personal practice, and a passion for uncovering forgotten celebrations, Victoria weaves together a rich tapestry of observances, rituals, recipes, and reflections to inspire magical living every day of the year.
Unlike traditional seasonal guides that center only on the eight sabbats or the phases of the moon, this book opens a much wider door. It honors the familiar while also inviting readers to explore a vibrant range of modern, historical, and ancient observances from cultures across the world.
Victoria’s thoughtful curation encourages readers to see the sacred in the everyday and offers accessible practices to fit even the busiest schedules. Whether through a simple meditation, a kitchen spell, a crafted charm, or a meaningful reflection, readers are guided to create their own evolving Book of Days.
Carefully researched and extensively referenced, A Witch’s Book of Days is indispensible to witches and neo-pagans who seek to live more intentionally, honoring the turning of time with wonder and wisdom.
Victoria collected her inspiration from many different sources and delves into far more than relatively well-known folk customs. I was fascinated to learn that during the French Revolution, France had a calendar that did away with religious festivals and instead dedicated each day to things like minerals, plants, and animals. While the French would have disapproved of even pagan celebrations, these are nevertheless natural things that witches might want to learn more about. Victoria uses this system - among others - as a way to explore their folklore and uses, including some great recipes. She also covers ancient festivals, anniversaries of people associated with modern paganism, and a whole lot more.
A Witch’s Book of Days is a treasury of seasonal lore. I learnt a lot from reading it and will be dipping into it for ideas in the months to come.
