Not a Reliable Source
This text is worth getting simply for novelty sake. While there is some good information, like the section on omens, a lot of the information felt like it was more geared for those looking more to own a taboo book. A lot of the concepts in this book contradict the nature or the book and relies HEAVILY on Christian and Catholic faiths rather than some of the practices that would actually be taboo. TLDR: There are FAR more informative and unbiased texts on this topic Full Review The information that was actually useful, mostly the section on omens, was very short and of the more common omens in western culture with the occasional eastern omen sprinkled in to add diversity. On top of that the useful information could have been found in minutes with a google search. A lot of the other information was more centered on forcing someone to love you, getting richer, or condemning the very groups of practiciiners that would delve into the use of charms, divination, and Magick even going as far on how to prevent someone who would practice such practices as Divination, Charm Craft, or Magick from entering a Church. If you really want a good text on these practices look at “Protection and Reversal Magick” by Jason Miller or even “The Magicians Companion: A Practical & Encyclopedic Guide to Magical & Religious Symbolism” by Bill Whitcomb.
