I was extremely pleased to get hold of a copy of Ceri Norman's new book A Beginner's Guide to Ogham Divination, published by Moon Books.
I have dabbled with Ogham over the years and tend to use it mostly for spell work but this book has opened up a whole new world of working with Ogham. Ceri takes you through the meanings for each stave and gives useful and practical suggestions. It is the most useful and comprehensive Ogham book I have seen.
Highly recommended for those wishing to learn to read the Ogham or for using it within spell working.
The official blurb:
