Summary: Daily Dose of Stupid Facts, 2005
Review: Do you care to know when De Molay and thirty-one other Templars confessed to heresy in front of an assembly of clergy; all later recanting their confessions? How about when Sybil Leek died of cancer or the birthdate of Dion Fortune?
I don't. But Llewellyn believes we do.
If you're looking for a datebook containing obscure and unless facts, or need something to remind you on a daily basis of the Burning Times, this is your gem! The cover material is even more flimsy than last time so be sure to get a few.

Summary: Helping the busy Witch keep track of his/her life
Review: Each year Llewellyn provides the busy witch with a pocket sized book to keep all the important dates in his/her life as well as reminders of Sabats, Esbats, planting days and harvest days and so much more.The Witches' Datebook has become a staple around here, sitting on our desktops with notes scribbled here and there to help us keep track of all sorts of events and deadlines. The book itself, spiral bound so it lays flat, with a 'by the week' layout makes this the perfect desktop companion. Included information regarding moon signs, planetary retrogrades, and little tidbits (' Saturday February 12 - Gerald Gardner, founder of the Gardnerian tradition, dies of heart failure, 1964' or ' Thursday July 28 - Bake blackberry pies for Lughnasadh in honor of the dying God') make for interesting reading on a day to day basis. Then there is the artwork. Each year Llewellyn highlights an artist and this year it is Jennifer Hewitson. The cover art is lovely and catches the eye while the block ink drawings on the calendar pages are well thought out to coincide with the season and included tidbits. Which brings me to the bits for reading inside the book. From the opening article 'Autumn Enchantment' by Ellen Dugan to the recipes on the weekly pages provided by ShadowCat, poems by Elizabeth Barrette, holiday musings by Magenta Griffith and moon lore by Edain McCoy, each bit fills the mind with contemplation and in some cases, places a taste on the tongue for something special. There are more articles in the front of the book by Gerina Dunwich, Emely Flak, James Kambos and Julianna Yau. The "Back of the Book' contains the usual 'About the Authors', the Appendix with tables of correspondences, moon signs, eclipses, full moons, planetary retrogrades and the Moon Void-of-Course data and finally the abbreviated name and address pages so handy as a quick reference. A good tool to keep on your desk, to help you track those deadlines and special occasions in your life. boudica

Summary: very informative and helpful
Review: Every year I cant wait to pick up my witches datebook. One year I didnt pick it up and I felt lost without it. I work for myself and I use it to schedule all my appointments that i have on a daily basis
This book helps me stay connected to wicca and helps me in deciding by the moons course when to perform certain spells. It also helps me to remember important dates in history. The recipes are delicious.
I am so glad Llewellyn decided to create this datebook so many years ago
