Handy Little Book,February 26, 2003 ByEl Brujo “Brujo Hechisero” (Lowell, Ma) –This review is from: A Century of Spells (Paperback)Draja Mickaharic’s books A Century of Spells, and Spiritual Cleansings have been in my library since the 80′s, and although many magical books, and spell books have been bought afterwards, I always seam to go back to Draja. A Century of Spells dabbles and mixes well Southern Hoodoo, Santeria, Christian Magic, and Caribbean Magic. This book is filled with wise wisdom on how to create excellent and powerful ritual incense such as High Spirit Incense, Meditation Incense, and House blessing Incense, it also gives you good instructions on how to fumigate, “smudge” with incense. The Herb section is just a quick basic intro to herbalism, and some of the herbs used in Hoodoo Magic such as Solomon’s Seal, Snakeroot, and Poke root to name a few.
There are spells using loadstones, how to create Four Thieves Vinegar. Methods for Spiritual Bath., oils, water sprinkles, spoken spells, and written spells are also discussed. If you are an opened minded person, because the book has spells using Jesus Christ, the Archangels, The Seven African Powers “Orishas”, and Allah, then this little handy book belongs in your library.

Magick for REAL people!!!,
This is a great book…It’s filled with a hundred spells from various cultures, religions and traditions that work independent of any specific culture, religion or tradition. What’s wonderful about it, is that Draja focuses on making magick PRACTICAL. How refreshing! A lot of the spells are simple to perform and require items that are easily available to most people. There are a few spells that i find to be rather peculiar or overly time-consuming, but they’re an interesting read at the least. He provides practical spells for most of the situations that people encounter in their daily lives…money, health, jobs, luck, relationships, etc. He does have a slight paternal tone in telling people not to alter the spells, but i take that to simply be a guardrail for the novice magick user. It’s a great little sourcebook for spells and as inspiration to help you create your own. Definately a “must-have” for me! =))
