Many of the articles are 2-star reads. Simply, they’re boring. I own and have read every Sabbat Almanac published and I guess at this point it’s just rote.
Seriously, one more article about John Barleycorn on Lughnasadh and I want to harvest his body myself.
Pumpkin pie at Mabon isn’t inspiring.
Candy corn candle holders on Samhain? For real? That’s a pin on Pinterest not a magickal craft.
These are truly desperate articles and it shows. The only ones I consecutively enjoyed was the addition of the Spell articles. It’s too bad they dropped the Crystals articles like they included last year.
Llewellyn, y’all are the biggest publisher in the game. Surely you can break this mouldy mold! Give us something fresh, something expansive and immersive instead of regurgitating the basics back to us! Baby witches might be wow’ed by this but your mature witches deserve better.

I really love this book. It gives you insight on each Sabbat from multiple views. Each Sabbat comes with background about the celebration, ideas & traditions on how to celebrate and a few crafts or spells to try for that Sabbat. As a new practitioner it was just what I needed to start learning.

As much as Llewellyn's books might be on the sugary, trendy-witchy, new-agey side of things, this almanac of their still offers quite a nice wealth of recipes, hands-on activities, lore and craft. Whatever else one might think of the superficiality, it's fun and the whole family can be involved. I might just buy the 2022 almanac, as a companion to Lia Leendertz's phenomenal ALMANAC.
