Synopsis

Discover a wellspring of Celtic magic that is vibrantly contemporary yet draws heavily on ancient and mythological texts. Weaving together practices and lore gleaned from Irish, British, Scottish, and Continental Celtic traditions, this book guides you through rituals and deity work that you can apply to healing, empowerment, protection, social justice, and more.

Morpheus Ravenna's methods are rooted in the beliefs of multiple gods (polytheism), spirits that dwell in all things (animism), and the hidden but ever-present spirit realm (the Otherworld). Explore Celtic-based practices like divination, sigil work, spirit alliances, and necromancy. You will also learn about spiritual hygiene, protection, and binding.

Includes a foreword by River Devora, a multi-traditional spirit worker, healer, and teacher.

About Morpheus Ravenna

Morpheus Ravenna (pronouns: Si/Hir) is a genderfluid sorcerer, artist, and writer residing in the East Bay area of California. Si is a dedicant of the Morrigan, with a practice rooted in animism, folk magic, and Celtic polytheism. An initiate of the Anderson Feri tradition of witchcraft, Si has practiced devotional polytheism and the magical arts for over twenty-five years. Si is the author of The Book of the Great Queen and a priest and cofounder of the Coru Cathubodua Priesthood.

Morpheus makes hir living as a tattoo artist, and Si creates devotional artworks and sorcerous crafts in a variety of media. Si also practices medieval armored combat and is very fond of spears.

I've been disappointed by the Llewelyn books I've read over the last few years. Calling them 101 books is reductive. They are shallow. They skim the surface. This probably has as much to do with the fact that I've read a ton of these sorts of books. They are for beginners and I am no longer the targ......more

I found it easy to follow and a good popularization of the classic occult books. I loved how it explain how to apply century old practice today and it's well researched.

Chock full of modern tools and tips for working with magic — inspired by Celtic traditions. Somehow the writing style is equally ethereal and pragmatic, weaving a spell for the readers across land, sea, and sky. Fascinating, well researched and well written — undeniably valuable teachings for anyone......more

Goodreads review by Lazarone on June 04, 2023

This is a very interesting survey of Celtic myths and occult practices. Because of that, reading of this book is very similar to reading Agrippas monumental work. But here, we have actual practical techniques adjusted to modern times. I would call this book kinda "iron strong" book because its main......more
