Description: Besom, Stang & Sword by Christopher Orapello, Tara-Love Maguire "The book returns the Craft to its primordial forces-animism, baneful plants, folk magic, ecstasy, and hedge-witchery-without gatekeeping, armchair pseudo-academia, or pretension."-Mat Auryn, author of Psychic Witch Regional traditional witchcraft is an animistic form of witchcraft that moves away from the religious harvest festivals and fertility-minded practices associated with the more common Wiccan form of witchcraft. Very few of us in this age are farmers or dependent upon crops and harvests. Regional traditional witchcraft teaches people to find their craft in their own backyards, in the uncultivated land or urban cityscape alike, and in their ancestors rather than in ancient foreign deities or in a neopagan-styled religious form of witchcraft. Its not about where youre from but where you are.The material in this book is adaptable to any region in which the practitioner lives. Although the lack of deity worship and holy days is a significant part of the authors nonreligious approach, this book presents a complete system of practice utilizing ritual, chant, trance, the six paths of witchcraft as defined and explained by the text, and the practices associated with traditional witchcraft.

Review "Besom, Stang, and Sword is easily the most eminently practical book on traditional witchcraft available today." --Nicholas Pearson, author of The Seven Archetypal Stones "The book returns the Craft to its primordial forces--animism, baneful plants, folk magic, ecstasy, and hedge-witchery--without gatekeeping, armchair pseudo-academia, or pretension." --Mat Auryn, author of Psychic Witch "Beautifully written, deeply researched, and growing from the furrows of a genuine practice . . . Theres much to learn here and much to do. Bury yourself in Besom, Stang, and Swords evocative spirit." --H. Byron Ballard, author of Seasons of a Magical Life "Presents traditional witchcraft in a clear, easy-to-learn manner, and it does so within the context of a complete tradition that is non-religious but filled with spirits." --John Michael Greer, The Druidry Handbook "The authors have made the old become new and live again. Chapter by chapter, they lay out the tools and the paths of their system of witchcraft. If you do the work described, you will claim your place in a broader reality filled with majesty and power." --Ivo Dominguez Jr., author of The Four Elements of the Wise"A beautifully wrought and immensely practical system of modern traditional witchcraft, born of personal insight, working experience, and dedication rooted deeply in the spirit of place." --Gemma Gary, author of Traditional Witchcraft "Orapello and Maguire have done it. Besom, Stang, and Sword is as comprehensive a guide to traditional witchcraft as one could ask for." --Amy Blackthorn, author of Blackthorns Botanical Magic "Besom, Stang, and Sword skillfully introduces the reader to important lessons in traditional witchcraft and sets them on a path of mastery. A book that will quickly become a classic and a must-have for those who seek to discover the magic of the crooked path." --Devin Hunter, author of The Witchs Book of Power "Opens the doors, laying out the materials of magic for all to see. The results drive home the central point that witchcraft is available to anyone." --Cory Thomas Hutcheson, author of New World Witchery "An inspired foundation with workable material in the form of rituals, spells, and explorations that both novice and experienced practitioners alike will find compelling and enlightening." --Laura Tempest Zakroff, author of Weave the Liminal"From this moment on, when someone in North America asks me for a book on traditional witchcraft, I will be recommending Besom, Stang, and Sword. Why? Because this book takes what I feel is the most essential truth of any real witchcraft and places it front and center: All witchcraft is local." --Jason Miller, author of Consorting with Spirits Long Description Regional traditional witchcraft is an animistic form of witchcraft that moves away from the religious harvest festivals and fertility-minded practices associated with the more common Wiccan form of witchcraft. Very few of us in this age are farmers or dependent upon crops and harvests. Regional traditional witchcraft teaches people to find their craft in their own backyards, in the uncultivated land or urban cityscape alike, and in their ancestors rather than in ancient foreign deities or in a neopagan-styled religious form of witchcraft. Its not about where youre from but where you are. The material is adaptable to any region in which the practitioner lives. Although the lack of deity worship and holy days is a significant part of the authors nonreligious approach, this book presents a complete system of practice utilizing ritual, chant, trance, the six paths of witchcraft as defined and explained by the text, and the practices associated with traditional witchcraft. Review Quote "With Besom, Stang, & Sword , Chris and Tara open the doors to their own practices, laying out the materials of magic for all to see. The results drive home the central point that magic--specifically witchcraft--is available to anyone, but that it requires time, effort, patience, and thought along with a dose of fate and a sizeable amount of risk. They build a hexagram of approachable practices that asks anyone picking up this work to root their magic in the land surrounding them and their own personal history, rather than taking secondhand sorcery from others. Chris and Tara reveal their Blacktree tradition without pretense or artifice, but instead with clarity, insight, and acid wit, which testifies to their talents as both seasoned occultists and engaging writers. This is a book that will reshape a readers encounters with magic and the landscape around them." -- Cory Thomas Hutcheson , author of 54 Devils and host of the podcast New World Witchery Details ISBN157863637X Author Tara-Love Maguire Pages 304 Year 2019 ISBN-10 157863637X ISBN-13 9781578636372 Publication Date 2019-01-25 Short Title Besom, Stang and Sword Language English Format Paperback UK Release Date 2019-01-25 Place of Publication Maine Country of Publication United States NZ Release Date 2019-01-25 US Release Date 2019-01-25 Publisher Red Wheel/Weiser Imprint Red Wheel/Weiser Subtitle A Guide to Traditional Witchcraft, the Sixfold Path and the Hidden Landscape DEWEY 133.43 Audience General Alternative 9781578635368 AU Release Date 2019-02-07 We've got this At The Nile, if you're looking for it, we've got it.
