Utterly Wicked: Hexes, Curses, and Other Unsavory Notions, Paperback

Protect yourself (and maybe indulge in a little payback) with practical instructions from one of the most beloved figures of Wicca and the Neo-Pagan movement.

"Utterly Wicked is one of the most important books I own and one that every serious witch and magickal practitioner should have on their shelf." --Mat Auryn, author of The Psychic Witch

Hexes, curses, and other unsavory notions--most magical practitioners won't even discuss them. Why? Because they'd much rather find a positive solution that benefits all concerned. And there's nothing wrong with that. Occasionally, though, our problems are such that nothing in the positive solution arena will handle them.

It's time to make a decision to stand tough, be strong, and take definitive action to defend ourselves. And if you're ready to do that--if you're ready to own that action and take responsibility for it--then Utterly Wicked is for you.

Jam-packed with more than one hundred rituals, incantations, hexes, and curses, this is the quintessential primer for learning all the magical tricks no one wants to talk about. Do you know the proper way to enter a cemetery? Utterly Wicked tells you how, as well as the proper methods for collecting and using graveyard dirt. Explore the little-known secrets of the 11-inch fashion doll, and see why it's become such a valuable magical tool. Learn how to prepare Hot Foot Powder, Four Thieves Vinegar, Goofer Dust, and other magical components designed to obliterate your toughest problems. Most important, you'll find the tools to protect yourself, your family, and your home from ever being bothered with these sorts of difficulties again.
