So we all have different ideas on what constitutes a good read, therefore I am in no way offended if you disagree with my selection. These titles are a small handful from my #occult collection.

Throughout the years cunning folk would be the source of power that the everyday person would turn to for help. These folk magick practitioners would devise spells that would be easy to remember. Today the original history is often forgotten however the innocent ditties and rhymes sung by children are the ancient spells.

I found a dead squirrel and so decided to preserve it using the technique of salt drying. This is still practised by #cunningfolk / #folkmagic witches today. The simple process involves selecting the parts that you wish to keep and then burying them in layers of salt. This salt you refresh every so often and check the parts every month. Depending on the size of the animal it can take from 3 months onwards.
