Authored by: Kerry Wisner
Published by: Troy Books

Witchcraft and magic have been with humanity from our beginning.  Beyond all that we as a species are, these have remained because they work.  And because they work, Traditional Witchcraft remains vital today.

This is the third volume in the Geassa series of books, a compendium of techniques rooted in Traditional Witchcraft that combine ancient pagan, Hermetic and cunning folk teachings into a powerful system of practical magic.  Detailed rituals, spells, and formulae are presented including:

  • Summoning the Serpent’s Breath in preparation for ritual.

  • House spirits & protective magic.

  • A detailed list of planetary and zodiacal sigils, seals and the spirits involved.

  • Traditional talismans & amulets for a variety of uses.

  • Mirror magic – including mirrors of revealing, enchanting & repelling.

  • Scrying & Crystal Gazing.

  • The Art of Fascination & the Glamour.

  • Candle & Cord magic in Traditional Witchcraft.

  • Necromancy – the art of summoning the dead.

  • Prosperity magic.

  • Seasonal and Full Moon Rituals.

  • A listing of different incantations, Words of Power and much more.
