From the editor : The ancient world is a magickal place. From the ziggurats of Sumeria to the temples of Crete and the pyramids of Egypt the ancients call to us. Magick never dies, but only slumbers, awaiting discovery by those who would once again revel in its beauty and respect its power.

You'll find scores of spells involving ancient deities and symbols including:

* The Sumerian god Enki to promote success in business.
* The grain goddess Demeter to rid one of bad luck and make way for prosperity.
* The symbolic "labrys" to renew health during or after illness has befallen you.
* The Greek deities Hermes and Aphrodite to help you find that special someone.
* The symbolic "menat" to produce a joyful union.
* And many, many more.

These age-old spells will promote prosperity, romance, fertility, healing, protection and divination. Each spell is described in detail, complete with backgrounds of the deities involved as well as step-by-step instructions for completing the magickal working. The spells are clear and precise enough to put beginners and historical dabblers at ease, but also provide enough background information to satisfy those more experienced with Magickal workings. The spells and charms are all designed with a positive outcome in mind, heeding always the admonition "an harm ye none, do what ye will."
