A must for your library whether you're Pagan or simply curious. ( ) Great book on celebrating the Sabbats. I'm not sure on the historical accuracy but its easy to read (I read it in 2 days) and has tons of great ideas and instructions . It also has a convenient list of correspondences (for each Sabbat) in the back. It has 9 chapters: an introduction then a chapter on each sabbat. In section 2 it has group ritual and solitary rituals. Section 3 has Information on ritual construction, spell construction, glossary, resources guide, and more detailed instructions and ideas as well as a bibliography. The craft ideas are something that both adults and children can get interested in and aren't insanely expensive or complicated. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

In The Sabbats, Edain McCoy reveals the eight major holidays of Witchcraft and the many ways in which they are celebrated. There are two basic types of holidays. The first come at the Solstices and Equinoxes. The others divide the time between those dates in two, resulting in eight major holidays or Sabbats with approximately the same amount of days between them. The balance, here, gives the appearance of spokes in a wheel, so this cycle is commonly called the Wheel of the Year. The holidays represent two things. First, the harvest cycle. Each holiday represents a time in the growth of crops. From planting to growth, from harvesting to letting the lands lie fallow in the cold winter, the festivals follow the agricultural cycles of ancient times. However, they also represent the eternal love of the God and Goddess, following the God's birth from the Goddess and his death before she gives birth to him again. This also follows the pattern of the Sun which moves from warm and high in the sky to cold and low in the sky. The book is filled with ways you can follow the Wheel of the Year, whether you work with a coven, with your family, or by yourself. You will learn the secrets of ritual construction and handicrafts appropriate to each of the festivals. You will also learn recipes for traditional foods for each holiday and even songs appropriate to the Sabbats. This is a wonderful, joyous book filled with color, information, and wisdom. If you are involved with Paganism in any way, this book is a must for your studies and practices. This book functions as both a resource and as a practical manual for the celebration of the holidays.
