Über diesen Titel
From Zeus and Hephaestus to Hades and Persephone, this book reveals the origins of nearly thirty Greek gods and goddesses, how they've been worshipped across the centuries, and how you can work with them in your own practice. Jason Mankey and Astrea Taylor introduce you to the gods one by one, presenting their history, unique correspondences, and a ritual or spell for connecting with them. You'll also enjoy insightful contributions from members of the Witchcraft community who actively work with these deities. Modern Witchcraft with the Greek Gods features other mythological figures as well, such as the Titans and Primordial Forces, and it explores the spell and ritual structures of ancient times. Everything you want to know about Greek gods and how to call upon them today is in this book.

What I expected was a book that brings together Modern Witchcraft and Hellenic Polytheism. I expected that the authors would try to bring together hellenic religion & practice and witchcraft to create a modern practice that is based or at least heavyly influenced by ancient Greek practices and believes. I hoped that the book would show witches like me, that work with Greek gods, ways to integrate parts of hellenic practice into our own in a respectful, authentic way.
At least I expected the history parts to be well researched (, or the awareness of colonialism).
This book does nothing of the above.
We have a book in which each chapter is dedicated to a specific god*dess. With a part that tries to retell the history and the myths, then a part with personal insights from various devotees and after that one ore more spells, recipes or something like that. - I've never been a fan of books that are structured like this.
And you can't even use this book as a reference book, 'cause it's just not well researched. It has many mistakes in regards of content and states things as facts that aren't.
Why the 3 stars? Well it was a nice read. I liked the personal insights and some of the spells where nice.
I would call this book "Love Letters to the Greek Gods". You can feel the love for the Gods in every story. It could have been a nice collection of essays with personal insights, if it wouldn't have tried to be something else.
I am so disappointed.
