• Describes the arcane rituals, ancient beliefs, and secret rites
of the Welsh Marches, including those of the Sin Eaters, Eye
Biters, and Spirit Hunters • Includes a Grimoire of the Welsh
Marches, a wide collection of spells and magical workings along
with practical instruction on crafting and casting In this
collaboration between a Druid and a Witchcraft researcher, Jon G.
Hughes and Sophie Gallagher describe in intricate detail the arcane
rituals, ancient beliefs, and secret rites of the Welsh Marches,
the borderlands between Celtic Wales and Anglo-Saxon England--one
of the oldest and most significant locations for early Witchcraft
and a lasting repository for ancient Druidic lore. Drawing on their
personal access to the archives of the National Museum of Wales, as
well as the local museums found within the Welsh Marches, the
authors share extracts from ancient texts, along with original
photographs of related artifacts. In the second half of the book,
the authors present a Grimoire of the Welsh Marches, a wide
collection of spells and magical workings along with practical
instruction on crafting and casting. Offering a comprehensive look
at the earth-based beliefs and practices of primal Witchcraft and
Druidic lore, the authors show not only how the traditions of the
Welsh Marches had a profound influence on the cultural and
spiritual history of the British Isles, but how their influence was
exported to all corners of the world.
