Willow Path



Witchcraft, Hermetics and the Hidden Wisdom

of the Magical Arts



Volume One

of

The Geassa




Deep in the New England forests a stone circle lays hidden, nestled in a clearing high atop a mountain of granite.  Formed in the pattern of the many old stone walls which dot the region it is here that the Willow Path emerges from the land itself.  In nature there exists an underlying current; a continuity of wisdom and consciousness that manifests in the Magical Arts.  



With roots reaching to Basque Witchcraft, the Willow Path is a form of the Magical Arts that incorporates techniques drawn across the rich tapestry of Western Occult practices.  From the oral teachings of traditional Witchcraft, combined with Hermetics, the Willow Path blends these into a cohesive magical practice.  Much of this material has never been published before as it represents the actual methods taught to the author through personal instruction and intensive training.  This book discusses:
