Damn Dozen. Thirteen Ancient Rites

You hold in your hands a unique book - a translation by a specialist in ancient folk magic in the southwestern part of Britain. The actions of magic and witchcraft deal with the hidden worlds of spirit and the forces inherent in the natural world in plant, stone, and magical loci. The elder, often referred to in folk tradition as the Devil, embodies both the tear in the veil and the bridge between the material and spiritual worlds, the manifested and the hidden. It is precisely through the alliance with this entity that witches in folk magic gained access to the forces that dwell both in hidden spheres and in the natural world, and could awaken a powerful fire within. On the pages of the book, you will find thirteen rites - for both the solitary practitioner and the gathered company. Visions, sacred contracts, dedications, initiations, consecrations, empowerment, protection, enlightenment, unity, transformation, and devotion.
