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.
Jon G. Hughes, author of Sexual Practices of the Druids, is from a lineage of Druids that has been practicing for five generations in a remote area of Wales. He is now teaching the tradition at his home in western Ireland and gives workshops and seminars throughout Europe under his Welsh name, Cynon. Also the author of Living Wands of the Druids and Witches, Druids, and Sin Eaters, he is the director of the Irish Centre for Druidic Practices.
