"Algunos nacen con estrella y otros estrellados. This dicho (saying) roughly translates to 'Some are born with a star, while others are born starry.' It refers to the Mexican belief that good luck is a matter of fate. The same goes for magic; some people are born with a natural gift, while others look at magic as a skill to be mastered. This book offers an overview of magic from across Mexico and shares spells, magical recipes, tips, and advice on how to be a magical person and live a magical life"--
