Thank you so much for your review of Elemental Witchcraft! It was such a joy to have you in Modern Witchcraft 366 class way back in 2011! You've chosen all my favorite books, too, and of course they are heavily referenced in my book. I'm so proud of the amazing witch you've become. Thank you for doing the good work of providing responsible content through your videos!

Very interesting options…definitely going to look into them ❤️👍

Great video! As someone a little familiar with the occult, but newly interested in studying witchcraft, I went with a few of your recommendations here. I've ordered the Cunningham Herbal books and the new Elemental Magic book from Heron Michelle. I'm currently working through the book "Psychic Witch" as my first one, but will definitely get to reading through your recommends when I have more time here. Thank you so much for making this video! I went ahead and subbed to you and look forward to more of your videos! Blessings to you!

I am a Witch of 20 years and have fallen out of my practice. I will be purchasing all three of these books and dust off my hat so to speak 😂 I would love to see more of your practice in your videos!

Hi Jennie, great reference books! I have a couple of Cunningham book. I think, I'm pretty sure one of them is the herbs book. I say "think" because I have some boxes of books I haven't unpacked since our move a couple years ago. I know, terrible right? 🤦‍♀️ I've decided my reason is called "Life". Between family, work, health (yes, I am a fellow spoonie😉), stuff just happens. Anyway, Cunningham has some great stuff. Take care, Jennie. 😊

This was so interesting! I love learning about different beliefs and practices. I’m a huge history buff lol (or so I like to think 😂) There’s so many things in common from one practice to the next. And the elemental book with the GORGEOUS cover along with the herbal books are so intriguing. When you think about all the medicinal uses of herbs and oils we all use in daily life…it’s kind of hard to imagine modern life without them. I also love devotions and intentions and meditation. Im all for self help and healing even if it’s borrowing from other practices than my own. Thank you so much for sharing! I love learning more! And you’ve brought so much happiness to my life these past months getting to know you and sharing all your content ❤️❤️❤️
Ps your makeup is gorgeous today Jennie!

I'm a little late to this video, but I really enjoyed hearing about your book recommendations.

I've had the Inner Temple of Witchcraft in my wishlist for a while, but I'm wondering if it might be similar in content to Psychic Witch by Mat Auryn, which I've already read. In your opinion, are the books different enough to warrant reading them both?

I actually read the first one from the library. It’s been a while tho.
