Böcker av Christopher Penczak

"The Inner Temple of Witchcraft" is a thorough course of education, introspection, meditation and the development of the magickal and psychic abilities that are the birthright of the witch.

As you enter the heart of witchcraft, you find at its core the power of sacred space. In Christopher Penczak's first book, The Inner Temple of Witchcraft, you found the sacred space within yourself. Now The Outer Temple of Witchcraft helps you manifest the sacred in the outer world through ritual and spellwork. The book's twelve lessons, with exercises, rituals, and homework, follow the traditional Wiccan one-year-and-a-day training period. It culminates in a self-test and self-initiation ritual to the second degree of witchcraft-the arena of the priestess and priest. 

A Modern Parable of the CraftA story as old as stories: Misfortune befalls a community of people and they cast about for someone to blame. Attention focuses on the home and the person of the curious old woman who lives on the outskirts, practicing her strange ways. So an angry mob finds its way to her humble hut, intent on burning out what they see as the source of their problems, but it turns out the witch has other ideas. Christopher Penczak presents a modern parable, a series of teachings about nature, fate, fortune, and divinity, along with love, power, and wisdom. Take up your torch and walk the midnight path to the hut. You might be surprised by what it illuminates.

The Mighty Dead, the Hidden Company, the Secret Chiefs, the Withdrawn Order, the Inner Plane Adepts, the Masters, the Bodhisattva and the Saints - all names for the enlightened dead who guide the spiritual traditions and evolution of humanity through the mysteries. They are found in traditions across the world, east and west, old and new. They were the guiding force of the occult revival at the turn of the 20th century, and continue to aid us today. Often overlooked in the traditions of the Witch, yet ever present in the form of the Mighty Dead, first written about publicly in the works of Gerald Gardner. These are the elder spirits who gather by the edges of our circle to witness our magick, and if asked, can enter into relationship with us. They are the true teachers of the mysteries, and the true initiators. The Mighty Dead help us regenerate our own lost traditions, awakening our spiritual roots to deeper truths. By forging connections with them, collectively or individually, we too can learn how to evolve and pass through the cycles of reincarnation to become one with these sanctified masters. Hand in hand we shall ecstatically dance together at the eternal Sabbat of the Witch.
