Book Review: Missing Something
Summary: 3 Stars
If you are looking to know more about the Egyptian pantheon and how to connect with them, this is a great book. I learned about deities that I never even knew existed and in that way this is an excellent resource. However, the point is made in the beginning that this is a book about Wiccan practice, so my expectation going in was that this book was going to explain to me how one would fit the Egyptian pantheon into say...the Wheel of the Year. But alas, while giving great detail on the deities, the actual structure part was sadly lacking. Other than some vague mentions of how her coven does things, there were no specifics, which was very disappointing (to say the least). The expectation was that being given the details on the deities, you would already know what to do with that info. Which still doesn't tell me how to fit the Egyptian pantheon into traditional Wiccan practice. :-(
Summary of Circle of Isis: Ancient Egyptian Magic for Modern Witches
The author shows how she, her coven, and her friends, have come to know the deities of ancient Egypt, and how these Gods and Goddesses have enriched their lives. Included are meditations and techniques to help the readers bring those deities into their own lives.Also included are songs for the deities, rituals, information on hieroglyphs, two new forms of divination, names, incenses, oils, information and recipes for an ancient Egyptian feast, sources for statuary and other items, and even the best sites to visit on the World Wide Web. Instructions on the creation of a wand, nemyss, kilt, and sistrum are included.
This book does not pretend to recreate the religion of Ancient Egypt, but rather to bring knowledge and worship of its deities into modern Pagan practice. Readers will have the tools to continue learning and developing their own methods of honoring the Gods and Goddesses of Tamera, the Beloved Land of the ancient Egyptians.
