Author Bio: Jack Grayle - writer, ritualist, and explorer of the lost lore of antiquity. Illustrated By: Rowan E. Cassidy Illustrator Bio: Cassidy brings to his praxis the lessons of classical mastery, draughtsmanship, and calligraphy. Cassidy's background includes studies in fine art at Australia's National Art School, Communication Design at James Cook University, design for numerous acclaimed feature films, along with exhibitions in Australia and Indonesia. Synopsis: The Hekatæon is in essence a Hymnal to Hekate: an ecstatic work dedicated to the Maiden-Serpent-Wolf, and manifested by her divine grace. Forged by the author's personal journey, this grimoire maps out a series of serpentine windings that lead the reader through a labyrinth ofsongs, spells, chants and invocationsto the very throne of the Queen of Crossroads herself. Directly inspired by Mediterranean myth, classical literature, and the sorcerous workings of late antiquity (to include the Greek Magical Papyri and related material), The Hekatæon is a unique compendium that fearlessly sets fortha treasure-trove of magical and devotional tools by which the devotee may ally herself with the chthonic spirits that grant the power, protection, and gnosis of Hekate. The Hekatæon was created as an act of devotion, and is meant to be used as such. To that end it contains four sectionswhich allow the Reader to enter Hekate's service by enlisting the aid of three spirit allies, creating nine sacred tools of art, learning the arcane meaning of Hekate's twenty-seven epithets, and accessing the latent powers of the titans, the dead, and the earth itself through the workings of thirty-three spells. Once opened, the book leads each reader inexorably down the Forked Path, gradually initiating those walking its serpentine roads into increasingly complex workings which involve theformation of pacts with intermediary spirits, the consecration of god-filled idols made from the skulls of dogs, serpents and goats, and the evocation of beings such as the chthonic solar daimon BAXYXSYXYX (the "Son-of-Darkness-Soul-of-Darkness") to perform various sorcerous workings of nocturnal, ophidian and even baneful nature and much, much more.

Cassidy Black ribbon; black and white head and tail bands Colored endpapers The Northern Lights flicker Stars flash in the night wind Listen, you can hear it The shriek of the Valkyries echoes over the snow-deep vales! Folks, it is HERE! After five sold-out runs of The Hekataeon, Jack Grayle is BACK with his first new book in five years: Sigrun & the Mist! Where does Choice end and Fate begin? What happens when we defy the gods? Can love outlast death? What is the difference between Destiny and Doom? These questions form the red-hot heart Grayle's new book, which takes the reader on a timeless quest from a lost age Sigrun & the Mist is a thrilling retelling of an Icelandic folktale in which heroes, giants, pirates, princes, gods and Valkyries clash in the frozen fjords and mighty mountains of the farthest Northlands. Robert Graves once wrote that the true gift of the Great Goddess was poetry, and Grayle proves the point by publishing something unprecedented in occult literature since the days of W.B. Yeats: a full-length play in blank verse. By turns funny, exciting, romantic and raw, this poetic retelling of a Norse legend brings to life an ancient story with profound implications for our time. Additionally, Shani Oates, the much-admired occultist, scholar, and Maid of Clan Tubal Cain provides a remarkable 30,000 word commentary on Sigrun in this volume, in which she explains the true nature of the Valkyrie as reaper-of-the-slain, as well as giving invaluable historical and cultural context of Norse magic, seidhr and warfare. Shani also provides two new bindrunes which she personally created to help the practitioner connect with the Valkyrie current that is revealed in the story. For those who wish to compare the play with the original tale, skillful author David Koffer supplies a fresh and fast-paced version of the 500-year-old Icelandic romance with wit and insight. Finally, Sigrun herself is brought to life in a series of astonishing ambrotypes and tintypes created in an exciting collaboration between wet-plate photographer Nicola Huffstickler and the Kate Moss of Occultism, model Klara Wolfe. Each of these ten photos revivifies the 19th Century pictorialist tradition in a series of iconic images replete with pathos and power in which the true nature of Sigrun is revealed with candor, courage and skill. The book ends with two personal statements, one by Huffstickler describing the dangerous craft of wet-plate photography, and the second by Wolfe, describing the challenges and triumphs of embodying Sigrun for the camera's eye. Don't miss this opportunity to join the Valkyrie's quest to fulfill her destiny! SKU: BTETM0002422 Shippi - For full description please contact the seller 2.…
