Review: Old World Witchcraft

Last updated on: January 31, 2019 at 6:55 pm By Mat Auryn

Old World Witchcraft: Ancient Ways For Modern Days by Raven Grimassi is a great introduction to the relationship between the witch and the plant world. The book is a fascinating read and Grimassi’s first public introduction to his Ash, Birch, and Willow tradition of witchcraft, and is somewhat of a prequel to his book Grimoire of the Thorn-Blooded Witch. Grimassi provides a re-examination of the folkloric witch and this book presents the first major shift in Raven Grimassi’s writing that... Read more

Review: Serpent of Wisdom

Last updated on: January 31, 2019 at 6:55 pm By Mat Auryn

Serpent of Wisdom: And Other Essays on Western Occultism by Donald Tyson are an anthology of writings on various topics of interest. Donald Tyson is one of my favorite authors on the occult, though I haven’t dived into his Lovecraftian works yet. Each essay is intelligent, thought-provoking, and creative. The scope of this book is broad – from high magick, to low magick, to folklore, to original ideas. The essays are on the definition of magic, the magic circle, the... Read more
