Editorial Review of The Complete Book of Incense, Oils and Brews (Llewellyn's Practical Magick)
One of the secrets of real magic is that it is controlled by the mind. The more things in your ritual to help your mind associate with your goal, the more powerful your ritual may be. Colored candles, scented oils, natural incenses, and more all add to the impact of the magic you wish to do.
But how do you know which incense to burn? Is it possible to add scented oils together to get a more powerful oil? And how do you make your own, appropriately-scented tools?
The answers to questions like these and hundreds more can be found in The Complete Book of Incense, Oils & Brews by world-famous author Scott Cunningham. This is a greatly expanded and rewritten version of The Magic of Incenses, Oils and Brews. It includes over 100 new formulas, proportions for each element of the recipes (the most requested feature from his previous book), how to substitute ingredients, and much more. Besides the formulas, it also includes the exact methods of making all of these scented tools, including how to extract the essences from the herbs.
Each one of the formulas is precise and easy to make. Do you need luck? Take 2 parts vetivert, 2 parts allspice, 1 part nutmeg, and 1 part calamus, grind them together as finely as possible, then sprinkle the powder in a circle around you, beginning and ending in the East and moving clockwise. Sit within this circle and absorb the powder's energies. Also included are other ways to use magical powders that will have you coming up with your own ideas for them, too.
There is a legion of recipes for incenses. There are three for the sun and two for consecrating talismans. There are incenses for each of the astrological signs and ones to help you study better and gain success. You'll also find incenses for each of the planetary influences. There are four for Saturn alone!
This compendium of magical lore is a vital tool for every magical person on any magical path, whether you are a beginner or an expert.

Review Summary: A decent introduction to magical recipes
Review: Scott's books are and excellent start up to those testing the waters, Even though te book needs some updating since he last wrote it before he died. The recipe's are great but the oil recipe's are only usefull if your making a dram size bottle. Eventually you'll beable to improve his recipes and change things when you get a better idea about plants and their uses in magic and healing. Keep in mind His book does not contain traditional recipes on oils,incence,powdersetc you'll find in occult shops the magical formulary is a good book for that(again trial and error)

Review Summary: Great starting point!
Review: I've read and reviewed many of Cunningham's other books, so it was no surprise that I really enjoyed this one as well. It was a great introduction, and really had a great selections of blends. One of the things I love the most and I use the book for the most is the substitution list. Some ingredients are pretty exotic or expensive, it's nice to know that you can use something else and still get desired results.
