\"\"Full disclosure, I am not a fan of horses. It’s not like I actively hate them, I just don’t have that gushing adoration that so many people have for them. As a little girl, I never went through a horse phase. I didn’t even go crazy for unicorns until my late teens\/early twenties when I learned more about them. (Specifically, that they could be beautiful killers. The murdering unicorns are the ONLY reason to watch the movie Cabin in the Woods.)<\/p>\n

So, why on earth did I agree to read Horse Magick: Spells and Rituals for Self-Empowerment, Protection, and Prosperityby Lawren Leo with Domenic Leo? Honestly, I could not tell you why. What I can tell you is that I am glad I did!<\/p>\n

\"\"Each chapter features a horse drawn from a wonderfully curated collection of examples in religion, folklore, and history. After the example you will find a spell or ritual associated with or inspired by the example. The spells are clearly written and well thought out, being sure to list supplies at the start. And, if you’re a nerd like me, the BEST part is at the end of each chapter there is a list of additional resources! I don’t if it was the authors or the publisher who made the decision to do this, but I hope to see more books going forward contain this feature.<\/p>\n

Along with the spells and rituals, Horse Magickalso has a chapter devoted to Equine Dreams. This is essentially a horse-based dream dictionary. If you dream of horses in any scenario, you will probably find a meaning for it in there.<\/p>\n

Did Lawren and Domenic Leo convert me into a horse lover? No. Did they create a compelling collection of folklore and magic that I basically read straight through in a day because it was so interesting? Yes.<\/p>\n
