Sacred Plant Magic: Spells, Rites and Rituals for Living a Aromatic Life by Amy Blackthorn

Renowned herbalist Amy Blackthorn shows us how to bring plant spirits into our daily spiritual practice with therapeutic access, subconscious learning, and divining skills that help us understand plant spirits on a deeper level.

Blackthorns Botanical Magic showed a new generation of witches how scent affects people, whether or not they understand it. In Blackthorn’s Book of Sacred Plant Magic, we travel even deeper into the magical garden of scent. We know that a walk down a summer street can bring back the smell of childhood summers with friends, riding bikes and swimming. Spring breezes carry with them the clean, soapy smell of your second-grade teacher. We experience scents not only in the here and now but also filtered through the lens of our past.

Using the power of scent, we can create a sense of the sacred in our daily lives. Part reference guide, part recipe book, and part ritual journey, Blackthorn’s Book of Sacred Plant Magic offers readers, an in-depth exploration of the vital connection between scents and magical practice.

• connecting with spirits of plants, place, and people
