Definetly a must have for all begginer witches. It talks about a lot of topics in witchcraft, it doesn't go too deep into each topic, however it lets us know how a lot about a lot of rhings in witchcraft that every practicioner should know. And that's the biggest advantage of this book, because of the fact that with that someone aiming to learn more knows the bases with a big picture of most topics in witchcraft and can choose wich one of the topics is the one that calll out to them the most and deepen their research on that topic later. This being said, wonderful book, woderful illustrations, wonderful information.

Protection & reversal magick is a book that absolutely everyone that practices witchcraft should have on their shelf. It is a very complete book on the topic of protection magick, this in the sense of how to protect, how to know if you are dealing with spiritual warfare and what to do if that's the case, and the healing aspect after it all. The focus the author also made on paying attention to the psychological aspect of if all when in comparison to actual witchcraft was also highly relevant. Please pay attention to your mental health state when practicing witchcraft.

This being said, this is a book I would recommend to everyone that's starting their path in witchcraft. Never skip protection when starting your path on witchcraft, and be as well informed as possible. In witchcraft as in everything, knowledge is power.

This is the first book I have ever read of Japanese poetry and I am abolutely glad that I decided to go and read it, the imaginary of the poetry is absolutely stunning. We get the feeling that the writer was writing something that he was seeing right in front of him at the time he was writing it and the reader gets that impression also. His poetry is rich in nature images and their symbolism related with the human experience, in all aspects of the human experience, but most of all the emotional experience. That being perhaps the reason behind there are some poems that leave us feeling like ????? due to how absurd they might seem (what makes sense if you think about how absurd some of the human experiences are), even if I would argue that perhaps the translation might have something to do with that. As always, or almost always, something happens to be lost in translations with books, and I fear that this might be the case with Nakahara Chūya poetry. 

At the end of the introduction of the book there is  a part that says "Some of Nakahara's images and metaphors may strike the Western reader as strange. Notes have been provided wherever helpful, but in general this strangeness is not a product of any culture gap, nor of the translation process. It is Nakahara's own." and I absolutely loved that they said that, because that unique characteristic appears often in his literature and it is such a remarkable characteristic of his poetry, alongside how much he includes sonoric details other than just words in the poems, which is truly helps with picturing the imaginary that the author is describing.

This being said, if you are the type of person that usually skips the introduction with historical context at the beggining of classical books I would highly advise you not to do it with Nakahara Chūya poetry, the context with the information about the life of the author will help you better understand and interpret the authors poems alongside their meaning and reason to be. 

Never whispered 'what the fvck' with so much emotion after finishing reading a book while also starting to cry because of the insane amount of emotions that the book somehow manages to make a person simultaneously experience while reading it. Too many emotions for a book with only 175 pages, it's actually insane.
