Detailing practices such as grounding, raising energy, visualization, and meditation, this book offers exercises for core techniques before launching into more complicated rituals and spellwork.</p> <p>Finalist for the Coalition of Visionary Resources Award for Best Wiccan/Pagan Book</p> <p>"In her first book-length work, Sabin presents a first-rate, fresh, and thorough addition to the burgeoning field of earth-based spiritual practice volumes...written in a light, informative style that magically mines depth, breadth and brevity."—<em>Publishers Weekly </em>(starred review)</p>
