Searching for the title and author of a book I used to own (x-post r/wicca)
Post Body

First of all, hello everyone! This might be a strange post, but I hope someone can help.

I'm looking to find the title/author of a book I used to own about Wicca/Witchcraft that went missing somewhere along the way. Unfortunately, I cannot remember the exact title, but I can describe the cover and the content. I seem to recall the title being something along the line of "The Witch's (or Wiccan) Handbook/Guidebook/Field Guide, etc." but I'm not certain.

This book was kind of a beginner's guide. From what I remember it started by describing the different pantheons of Gods and Goddesses, it also described different tools, the meanings of different colors and phases of the moon, finally ending with spells.

While it was pretty basic in content, it was aesthetically beautiful. The cover and interior pages were designed to look like a field guide or grimoire. There were photographs of dried flowers, statues, etc, which were designed to look as though they were pressed between the pages. All the pages were full color and on heavier paper. The book itself wasn't very big, probably 6-8" square. The cover I remember being a textured brown, designed to look like an old book and there was photographic twine wrapped around the top left and bottom right corners.

I found this particular book to be a handy reference as well as a beautiful addition to my library and cannot seem to find it on any of my Google searches. Any help would be appreciated.

I know. That's my frustration. I don't have any occult bookstores around my area unfortunately and I just spent hours combing Google and Amazon.

Great idea about the year. I hadn't thought about that. I probably got it around 2009-2010, although I can't be exactly sure.

I thought the same thing about covers changing, but I'd hope the entire book didn't undergo an aesthetic overhaul, because the interior was done in the same distinctive style.
