My dream has always been to have a huge old-fashioned, magical library, with a sliding staircase. This is still possible, yet at the moment I am living a nomadic life, building my mobile home for travelling full-time. This way keeping digital magic books on my computer comes really handy. If you’d like to browse hundreds of titles about witchcraft, you can try kindle unlimited free month trial (then it costs just $9.99 per month!). An affordable option for an avid reader!

My name is Eva Maria and I love to create magical content based on my own studies and experience. Merkaba Study is an online grimoire where you can read about crystal healing properties, spells, tarot, and more!
U do HV a book for the beginner for witchcraft n the book should also include such things like removing black magic from a person’s body and also when a person is black magiced or poisen a black magic .
Please let me know it’s very urgent.
I don’t really know about Dark Magic books. The closest I know about removing negative energy is an egg cleansing. You can maybe google some of that.
Just n FYI – entries 4 & 9 are identical
I was also confused when I found these books. Even though they have very similar titles, they are written by two different authors. Haven’t read them yet but from a quick look at the table of content, they contain different chapters and information. Tell me if I’m wrong.
I always watch breaking the magicians code when I was little. I find it amusing how they come up with those tricks
