Dare to walk through the mysterious world of the Old Forest and awaken the divine power sleeping within the Witchblood. Containing knowledge gleaned from the Gods of the Sorgitzak, a long forgotten Witch Tradition, this book takes you on an exploration of the web of the Sabbats, possession and prophecy, men's and women's mysteries, sacred language, familiar spirits and the Fey, and how to work with Elemental forces both within and without.
Like the Old Ones, Witches today are called to forge connections between the land, the Gods, the ancestors, and the community. The Old Forest is the enchanted wilds of our dreams and of our beginnings, holding the secrets we need to renew the f lame within. Using these rituals and meditations, we can discover what has been lost or hidden, the better to build a foundation for a future as bright and shining as the stars on Earth.
Through Dancing the Blood we can join with our kindred, journeying beyond the Veil to the beautiful and dread realm of Faery. There, we act to create patterns of prosperity, dynamic balance, and necessary change, reclaiming our rightful place as Priests and Priestesses of Fate.

Who is the Muse? Why do we need Her? How do we tap into that shining current of inspiration and create something never before seen, something beautiful and terrible, fantastical and infinitely real.
The Muse is as vital to our lives today as She was in ancient times. She changes as we change and Her Arts are continually in flux, Arts that we simply cannot live without...or that we wouldn't want to. Among other things, they are tools to make and re-make our world even as we work with Fate to weave the web of life and death, of creation and destruction. Through four faces, four masks of the Muse, this book explores different aspects of inspiration, creativity, and magick. Aphrodite, Cerridwen, Ariadne, and the Lady of the Lake await--each to teach us of the Arts and what we are capable of at our very best.
By the poetry, prayer, invocation, and ritual contained within we can come to know the Muse and so know ourselves and the gifts we all have within us that demand recognition and expression. The path of the Muse may not always be an easy or a safe one, but anything worth having is worth paying the price for. Who is the Muse? Who are we?
This book is a journey, one that we must dare to take and dare to take hold of what is revealed.. As we must return to the well of memory, the depths of the ocean, and the currents below the earth, there to claim what was ours all along.

Hedgewitch Craft takes its name from the practice of travelling beyond the boundaries, of going past the "hedgerows" that divide what is known from what is unknown. Hedgewitches utilize diverse techniques to undertake the night-flight into strange and sometimes dangerous places in order to gain spirit-allies, magickal abilities and knowledge, to heal and to commune with the Gods and the ancestors.
From the ancient to the modern, from the philosophical and historical to the practical and mystical, these essays span a wide variety of paths and approaches. To Fly By Night features works by: Robin Artisson

This is a book about the religion once practiced ages ago in the Old Forest region of Europe. The book contains channeled messages from the Gods of the Old Forest and from the fey, as well as stories, myths, legends, and bits and pieces of the old witch language. It is not meant to be a "Wicca 101" book, but the next stage towards witches, in particular those of European descent, being able to reclaim their heritage. In this regard, there is no other book currently out there quite like this one. Not only does it provide a link to the past, but it also gives witches a potential focus for the future.
