Book descriptionI guess I’d like to start with the “good points” of the book, such as putting all the correspondence related items in the back of the book or opening up the discussion about how to try to deal with things from your childhood that may be affecting you now (like going to a fucking doctor and having professionals who have licenses help you and support you). And the few and far between good points in this book which are more like common helpful nuggets of advice. However, that does not mean this book is worth even picking up or reading at this point.1. Disability Hatred and Playing the DoctorProbably the most prominent thing about this book is the fact that it actually goes out of it’s way to specifically say the people with Nerve Disorders, Chronic Pain Sufferers, and Diabetes (specifically) are not to practice magick (as defined by the author as “involv[ing] using natural forces to effect willed change, often changes in our perceptions or consciousness”). Stating specifically in her book, in the beginning of her Magick and your Health section:“Physical, mental, and emotional health are necessary for peak performance in the magickal arts, and a strong and sensitive nervous system is essential.” (p. 81, True Magick, Amber K).Followed by a seriously out of context Bonewits explanation quote, which at the time of this book’s original publication, ironically, Bonewits had already been diagnosed with EMS. On my current book’s print (the eleventh edition) he’d had it for over eleven years. It seems a little in poor taste to misquote someone who has been diagnosed with some level of disability while simultaneously dismissing them as being capable of working magick - let alone good magick.“People whose blood sugar bounces all over, who are filled with additions and craving, or who are in pain, fatigued, or dehydrated are not in a good position to be perceivers, catalysts, or channelers of power. They may work magick, but they will certainly not be working the best magick of which they are capable. Anything which debilitates your neural system weakens your magick.” (p. 97, True Magick, Amber K)This ableist shit was prominent throughout the book, assuming that everyone can have physical activity levels or that was being healthy. It begs the question, the amount of “helpful” advice about how someone should get up their physical activity, if Amber K is a fucking doctor. Can I see your medical license? Where is your degree? Who said you have the right to tell people what kind of activity plans that they need in order to get healthy? Because there are a lot of people who you would look at, Amber K, with disgust and with the assumption that they are not healthy, and they are perfectly fine and healthy.Amber K also played the Nutrition Specialist in here as well. Discussing how people should substitute most of their diet into a Vegetarian life style in order to practice magick. Not only does this fly in the face of most practices which require some level of animal sacrificing – it also flies in the face of traditions which are specifically orientated around hunt animals. But more importantly, it’s clear t](http://cdn07.dayviews.com/500/_u4/_u2/_u0/_u1/_u3/_u8/u4201386/37846_1511462496/PORTABLE_True_Magick_A_Beginners_Guide_by_Amber_K_tom_kickass_download_pc_book_READ_BOOK_True.jpg)

Discussing how people should substitute most of their diet into a Vegetarian life style in order to practice magick. Not only does this fly in the face of most practices which require some level of animal sacrificing – it also flies in the face of traditions which are specifically orientated around hunt animals. But more importantly, it’s clear that Amber K, with her medical license – right, understands that everyone can have the same dietary needs, right? Because that’s exactly how humans all operate. Everyone can get a vegetarian life style – just for medical reasons alone.No. Amber K, that is NOT how people work. While some people may be able to operate in the Vegetarian life style because a) their bodies and medical health allow them to do so and b) because they have the monetary funds (ie it’s classism to pretend that the vegetarian life is available to everyone in the fucking world), not everyone can do it for a variety of reasons. Nor should they feel pressured by an author who doesn’t even fucking have a fucking goddamn license to be issuing this fucking level of nutrition advice.It’s absolutely ridiculous. If you want to be a fucking doctor, Amber K, go to medical school. Because clearly you like the idea of being able to dictate to people whether or not they are healthy by your arbitrary guidelines and feelings on the matter.2. RacismOut of this book there’s at least several parts of this book which CONSTANTLY get expressed as clear racism. This book frequently mentions Huna – a tradition in which a White Man went to Hawaii and said he “found the ancient Hawaiian religion” when he came back, to which several prominent religious Hawaiian leaders have said “Lol wat, white man?” While I could forgive ignorance on this Huna being nothing more than a white interpretation of Hawaiian culture, because at the time that this book was created fact checking was not exactly welcome, this book was published in 2000. Last I remembered Google was at least available to referencing. Furthermore, she could have easily called up any specialist in Hawaiian cultures in the colleges around (where ever she was) and asked questions about whether Huna was what it was claimed.So I’m not going to even bother with this, it’s a racist religion created by a white man who thought he knew Hawaiian culture better than any native Hawaiian.Furthermore, this book uses slurs even though clearly, in the next breath, this author knows what the fuck the original grouping of people is called (in general – though is missing some key important groups that should not be lumped together). Excuse you author, instead of using the SLUR and propagating the SLUR as an actual okay thing to say of those people, since you clearly know the correct term for them, why don’t you just stop using it.I think we’d all appreciate it. Thank you.Furthermore, this book associates ALL Native American/First Nation practices with Shamanism. This tends to be a trend with the new age section lumping all Native American practices together under a Siberian fucking mysticism, instead of using the words which come from Native American tribes. We’ll just say that, oh sure, author, you pick out that term for them. Because clearly you know exactly what labels they should be running with in your infinite wisdom of their culture and practices. Right?But more importantly, this author loves to use people and sources which are inherently racist in or to back up or provide information about cultures. This author has used the book, Medicine Woman, in a several places in order to back up their point about something. Well, unfortunately, the author of that book, as been widely discredited as making up the interviews that she states occurred. Most of the time, that author induces the mythical x-native mystic who she has some how interviewed because everyone’s willing to talk about their practices to a white woman author. I don’t even know how to begin to deal with the problematic shit that this is, but needless to say if you’re quoting someone’s MADE UP book in order to provide the people of color’s perspective of what all this means, then clearly there is some serious issue here. Why did you think this was okay in the first place? Why did you not question this book’s authenticity? Why would you think that someone would speak to a white woman who recently ended an attempted acting career? I am not sure why the author wouldn’t have questioned her own sources, but she’s already misquotes a hell of a lot of people. So it’s pretty much par for the course.On a side note, Brujeria is not at all what is stated in this book. I am not exactly sure where would be the best category to put it under, so I’ll address it here. There’s a lot of practices which are misunderstood in Brujeria and other forms of Central and South American practices as well as Island practices from places which surround the continents. It doesn’t need someone who clearly does not know the difference between their ass and a hole in the ground explaining it to a wider audience what exact it is.I am not even going into the rest of what was listed in this one section here in this book. But needless to say, CITATION NEEDED.3. Pseudo Science Needs To Be CheckedProbably some of the most annoying parts of this book (beyond the fucking offensive as shit and just what the fuckness) is that this book promotes the idea that one can just make up what physics does and definitions of physics. It’s quite clear from the “energy is abundant” section, that the author barely has the ability to understand what energy means in terms of physics, let alone to start writing a fanfiction about an alien from Pluto.If anything, having a lot of fictional material, in what should be a non-fiction book, should raise a giant red flag. Is the author not capable of separating physics from fiction? It bothers me since this book is not only recommended for beginners, but also new people who have never had any experience with people from the various communities.Plus on top of this whole misunderstanding of concepts in physics, we have some astronomy issues. Recently there have been some changes in theories about whether or not the universe is or can expand infinitely, and there’s been some interesting discoveries and interpretations on what things are out in the universe. However, even if the universe was expanding infinitely, it does not correlate at all that their would be dragons on an astral plane at all. That doesn’t make sense. It doesn’t matter if there are more stars out there than possible to conceive that does not provide any evidence that dragons exist on the astral plane.Absolutely ridiculous.We (meaning those within my immediate community, witchcraft, and others like my community) already get enough shit from people who question a variety of things about our intelligence, our understanding of reality (meaning our capabilities from separating it from something that isn’t /real/), our methodologies, and our capabilities as a group. We don’t need this kind of shit on top of everything else (and we sure as hell need to deal with all this bullshit that was before this fucking point). I’m not sure whether to be insulted or to be angry that this author included this shit to try to appeal to a scientific mindset.Because it comes off looking as if the author has never been taught a single fucking thing about science at all. Let alone the two out of some of the biggest and probably most important ones for our current society. I just can’t even conceive where the author thought that it was okay.4. Getting Paid for Services Rendered.Apparently the author does not think that she should have to pay someone for providing services rendered to her. I assume she does not pay anyone who does anything for her at all. Why? Because clearly she’s so fucking anti-getting paid for services rendered in witchcraft, paganism, occultism, and other communities.See here’s the thing, while I am not a for-hire witch, I know several people who are. This is what they do. This is their bread and butter (literally) what puts food on their table. They put their time, their efforts, their supplies, and their energy into making and creating things. They deserve to get paid for what services are rendered. And Yes, I hear you about scam artists, we have been over-saturated with warnings about scam artists in our midst writing racially motivated books which also include ableist language which demeans anyone who has any kind of illness for whatever reason. I mean, we have a hell of a lot of those in the new age section, especially when they love to brag on their new copies of their books how many books they’ve sold as part of their scam.But to say, and try to convince a reader, that something not on the up and up about someone who performs a ritual or a spell for you asking for money (or trade) for services provided, is bullshit. While there are no guarantees with spells, charms, etc (because let me not lead you astray), there was a product and you will pay for it if you want it.Or they can go to someone else, or they can watch their tv shows and eat PB&Js and not give a fuck about your cheap ass. You will pay someone for their services provided if they ask for it, which is not wrong. So shut the fuck up, trying to cheap people out of their hard earned money because of bullshit and airnoses.Oh and your little couplet, you know this one:“If you would pay coin for a magick spell, Better to throw your purse in a well.If you would ask coin for a magick spell, better to throw your wand in a well.”only fucking exists in your books. It’s something your little snide ass came up with all on your fucking own. Which means you were trying to blind side the reader by sneaking that in, like you kinda did with some of your other material that you didn’t source, to pretend that it came from somewhere else. When it’s really just your fucking bad writing abilities.Why don’t you throw any keyboard down a well. It would be better fucking served for everyone, I think.5. Summary of Other Points that just need to be statedThe author specifically tries to diminish and discredit my current practices, at almost every opportunity. The author thinks curses are oh so horrible, except doesn’t overemphasize the fact that there are sexual predators and abusers in our communities which need to be dealt with and warned about. I don’t think we should be worrying about teachers, people, whoever are cursing. We should be worrying about the fucking criminal and abusive shit that is going on in our fucking communities.But not only that, the author has an over inflated idea that “witchcraft for spiritual reasons” is OH SO BETTER than any other kind of witchcraft. Let me be extremely honest with the author in this review, that is such shit that you can shove it right back up where it came folded by a baseball bat which has had nails driven in it. And then you may rotate on it. Multiple times. One brand of witchcraft is not any better, inherently, than any other. You can take that, and walk out in the open with a bunch of people who have no ethical or moral qualms about cursing. I’m sure that would be lovely for them to hear.I also have some serious issue with the victim blaming in this book (basically saying that you invited all your bad shit to happen to you through the philosophy which is in this book about selves). That is absolutely not going to fly with me as victims are NOT responsible for what happens to them. Let me repeat that, it doesn’t matter what they do, what they have done, what they are wearing, what they are thinking, what they are afraid of, what they have done bad or good in their lives or neither, it doesn’t matter. VICTIMS ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR WHAT HAPPENS TO THEM BY OTHERS. People are not in control of every little bit of their lives. Shit HAPPENS. And sometimes it happens to you WITHOUT a REASON for it to do so. Absolutely not fucking okay to blame victims.Also, spells in paragraph form. Really. Yeah.In conclusion,There’s a lot of stuff I didn’t mention here that I found in the book such as some pieces of ageism, “bad emotion” shaming for anyone who doesn’t think that we only exist on ONE half of our emotional range, and a couple of things which out of context or misquoted. There’s a bit of heteronormativity (meaning ignoring any other sexualities besides heterosexual) and some rampant gender issues (meaning gender assignments and association, whilst ignoring any other possibilities of other gender types outside of the binary genders), as well. But not as much as I’m used to in books which have authors claiming to be Wiccan. There’s usually a lot more OR there’s nothing about anything and totally ignores the subject all together.I’m surprised that there’s not sexism either. But the author definitely makes up for that was the disability shaming and racism, because it seemed like every two chapters one or the other would pop up here and there. Which was so enjoyable, right? No.All in all, this book is not worth, in my opinion, going through at all. But you are more than welcome to view it on your own (obviously). But I won’t be recommending someone who specifically addresses those with disabilities and pressures them to “stay away” from witchcraft/paganism/magick/etc.True Magick: A Beginners Guide by Amber K read pc link english iBooks
