A guide to the history and practical use of love magic
• Explores the use of love magic since prehistoric times, throughout the ancient cultures of Babylon, Greece, and Rome, as well as among medieval European alchemists
• Presents methods for using Magicis Materiae of active botanicals, minerals, magic soil, and animal products, as well as incantations, periapts, amulets, and poppets
• Describes the rites and rituals of love magic and practices to protect oneself from love spells and counter the effects of aphrodisiacs
Love Philtres is a practical guide to one of the most ancient and widely used magical practices in the world—the use of devices and potions to find and keep love. From aphrodisiacs and amulets to philtres and potions, the use of love magic dates back to the ancient civilizations of Babylon, Greece, and Rome, throughout Hindu and Islamic cultures, and among the alchemists and occultists of medieval Europe.
In this book, practicing Druid Jon G. Hughes explores the history of love magic, focusing on the unique magical and druidic cultures of the British Isles and teaching readers how to carry on this tradition. Presenting how to use the Magicis Materiae of active botanicals, minerals, magical dirt, and animal products, the author explains how to identify these materials, details the methods to extract their potent effects, and shares the incantations and spells that accompany their use.
Hughes also explores how to harvest materials and prepare a wide range of potions in the form of electuaries, tinctures, elixirs, oils, and ointments. He describes the appropriate rites and rituals of love magic, including the arcane Sweaty Cake love charm. He also shares methods that you can use to protect yourself against love spells and how to counteract their magical effects.
“To describe this book as comprehensive would be an understatement with regard to its breadth and the lengths that the author went to in researching this fascinating subject. Love and money are probably the two primary areas in relation to divination and magical requests since the dawn of civilization, and that still holds true today. This book deals solely with the former of those obsessions and specifically with the use of potions in the realm of love. It covers methodology extensively and, more importantly, the ethical considerations as well as the history and techniques involved in the creation and application of love magic. Included in this are more than eighty pages of detailed information on botanical and fungal ingredients, with additional sections on minerals and animal ingredients, solvents, and distillations. If you have an interest in studying this area of magic, Love Philtres is definitely a must-have volume.”
