Mountain Magick: Folk Wisdom from the Heart of Appalachia
Edain McCoyThe rich folklore of southern Appalachia encompasses some of the most authentic magick that exists anywhere today. This work focuses on the magickal aspects of the lives of the mountain people, something no other single book about the region has ever done. The Appalachian folk used omens, portents, curses, cures and protections to achieve non-material goals, focusing on the intangible: family and home, romance and children, health and death.
