“Amy Blackthorn is a master green witch and plant spirit practitioner. She provides the reader with accessible magical techniques for working with plant allies, as well as an expertise on active compounds and scent profiles. Blackthorn’s Book of Sacred Plant Magic is much more than a guide to botanical aromatics; it provides the reader with tools and techniques to tap into the spiritual powers of plants and build lasting relationships through the ethereal and profound properties of natural fragrance.”—Coby Michael, author of The Poison Path Herbal“While reading Blackthorn’s Book of Sacred Plant Magic, I felt as if I had been invited into an exquisite garden club’s educational afternoon tea. In the ideal teacher-student relationship, Blackthorn builds trust and a rapport with her readers while presenting a bouquet of knowledge on plant magic. I praise her decision to include cannabis, helping to reclaim, destigmatize, and renormalize this important and beneficial plant.”—Kerri Connor, author of Kerri Connor’s Weed Witch Series and Spells for Groovy Times“Blackthorn’s Book of Sacred Plant Magic is an abundant garden of flavorful advice and well-rooted knowledge for practicing green witchcraft—an absolute treasure for anyone seeking to grow a powerful connection to the plant allies and their green world. Amy Blackthorn guides the reader through an extensive variety of plants, from common kitchen staples like dill to exotic botanicals, such as May Chang. She expertly discusses challenging botanicals, including cannabis, in an extensive section. Throughout this excellent book, Blackthorn offers spells, rituals, meditations, foundational recipes, and an expansive collection of detailed monographs. She wonderfully shares all of this on varying levels, so everyone—from complete newcomer to experienced practitioner—will find new ways of rendering sacred plant magic through her approach.”—Cyndi Brannen, author of Entering Hekate’s Garden“Amy Blackthorn has created a trove of historical, magical, scientific, and spiritual information that will deepen and enrich any practitioner’s magical experience. She leads us through plant families, how to work with the spirit of the plant as opposed to (or in support of) the physical material, and offers ways to communicate with the natural world around us, encouraging us to expand our ideas of what functions the plant realm has within our daily lives on both mundane and magical levels. I wish I’d written this book, but Amy has done a much better job than I ever could have. Blackthorn’s Book of Sacred Plant Magic is a book I will recommend to absolutely everyone.”—Arin Murphy-Hiscock, author of The Green Witch“Amy Blackthorn knows her botanicals. Sacred Plant Magic, another enriching and educational addition to the Blackthorn’s Books series, is full of clearly presented information and instructions designed to bring any witch or magician closer to their own plant spirit allies via a wide variety of successful methodologies, both beginner and advanced. If you have a green heart, you won’t be disappointed.”—Tara-Love Maguire, coauthor of Besom, Stang, and Sword
