I enjoyed this book. It starts out with an introduction to the pentacle and then moves on to the points (all of which are broken down into a specific focus such as creativity or desire) and then goes on to go beyond the basics of finding beauty. I loved that at the end of each section there were questions asked that needed to be answered after reflection. This might seem simple but as I worked on the exercises it was more profound than one might think. These exercises and questions were building blocks for the rest of the exercises. This whole thing will be a work in progress and I need to remind myself that it will not happen overnight. I loved the idea of taking it out into the world toward the end. I think this could help everyone exceptionally as little pieces of beauty are scattered around.

My biggest complaint was trying to visualize the tarot part of this. I am such a visual person so trying to see it was a struggle for me. However, this is my personal issue. Still a very good book. I look forward to implementing some of these things through the course of my day to day life.

Oh I loved all the information given on this book. In my craft everyone practices their own way so this book was amazing to learn!

In ‘Walking in Beauty’ LeFae brings to the forefront the importance of gratitude, seeing beauty in the world around us and understanding self beauty. Readers will confidently build altars by following well written text and instructions in order to attract beauty into the mundane. Through journaling readers can move through barriers and by using other meditative practices overcome negative body issues.

LeFae does bring into this the Wiccan philosophy of the Pentacle, although superficially, and I was hoping for more of an explanation of the differences between the Pentacle and the Pentagram. I personally find Pentacles energetically annoying and will take a Pentagram over a Pentacle any day!

This one is for the Wiccan’s and those new to practice looking to add some calm and positivity to their lives.

Thank you to the publisher and Netgalley for the eARC

Llwellyn has been producing some of the best and most practical books of modern witchcraft and wicca for several decades now and this is no exception. A refreshing and uplifting read.

A timely read for me (March 2020) and what a comfort of a book!

I was grateful for the review of the "godds" she includes in the text as I needed a refresher! Also helpful was the chapter on oils and sprays that can be used to enhance your circle work with the Beauty Pentacle. IN a very timely way, the Beautiful Wild section of the fourth chapter was comforting and helpful with ways that we can be more connected as humans and with the natural world around us (I'm writing this review during the Covid-19 pandemic as we, as a world, sit in isolation to heal our most vulnerable). "By stepping into the wild, being in liminal spaces, feeling the wind on our faces and the sun on our skin, we awaken the beauty within." It was nice to be reminded to keep a sense of wonder as we see and experience the beauty of our lives.

What a wonderful book. I really enjoyed getting into each of the sections and delving deep. I have always been one to look for the beauty and sharing it...but this book had me delving deeper into those instincts and seeing more beauty not just around me, but inside myself as well.

I loved this book. I’m going through a particularly rough time today and this book was like a breath of fresh air; like I took a step outside and let me myself relax for the first time in months.

A very practical and well thought out book. From daily practices to shrines its all covered. The forces or dieties are covered in a way that shows the author knows the importance of focus and symbolism. Then its all spelled out as to how to make your life really better. No store full of gadgets and oils are needed to do the exercises and rites in this book. Just your own desire and commitment to a new balance .
