Reviews
I don't know a single witch who doesn't work with the elements in some way. Dorsey's Water Magic is an excellent introduction to working with that element. It's also an excellent reference book for experienced practitioners, covering everything from deities associated with Water, to plants, mythology, and sacred sites. Her bath and wash recipes will go into my recipe book. Highly recommended! --Deborah J. Martin, author of A Green Witch's Cupboard Lilith Dorsey makes the magical element of water come alive in this enchanting book. Water Magic delves deep to reveal the mysteries of this elusive element with powerful insights about its history and correspondences. Expect to be inspired by the vast array of practices in these pages, including the many uses of charged water, sacred baths, dream interpretation, magical floor washes, and so much more. I highly recommend this book to anyone who seeks a closer relationship with the element of water. --Astrea Taylor, author of Intuitive Witchcraft This fantastic deep-dive into elemental magic is a brilliant addition to Lilith Dorsey's already stellar bibliography! Water Magic will bring you down to the mysterious depths of history and magic, and carry you safely ashore to honour this natural force in your own life through plants, crystals, shells, and sacred waters. Filled with stories from around the world, Lilith paints a beautifully diverse picture of the magic of water that will open you up to people and places you've only imagined! --Paige Vanderbeck, host of The Fat Feminist Witch Podcast, and author of Green Witchcraft and The Grimoire Journal Poetic and beautiful, lyrical and evocative, this book makes an element we encounter many times a day seem as new and fascinating as the first drop of dew on a rose petal. Lilith Dorsey's beautiful spirit comes shining through every word of this little book. Water Magic is a delightful compendium of what must surely be every consideration of the mythology, magick, and majesty of the element of water. Don't let the size fool you. From recipes and rituals to lore and magical attributes, this little book is a powerhouse of knowledge about the sacred and vital element of water. --Katrina Rasbold, author of Crossroads of Conjure, Energy Magic, and The Sacred Art of Brujeria
