“Many books talk about the relationship of Witches to natural magic. This book takes you into the very heart of it.” —Christian Day, author of The Witches’ Book of the Dead

For the first time in more than a decade, Grimassi introduces readers to a new system of witchcraft, one that draws upon the old ways and the old days to teach the practitioner how to master all that it is to be a Witch. Chock full of spells, illustrations of plant spirits, and rituals, Grimassi takes readers deep into the woods to learn the secrets of the Thorned Path.

Here we meet the entities that dwell deep within the organic memory of the earth—the devas, the deities, the magical life force behind the surface of the wooded glen. Chapters include Plant Spirits of the Green Realm, The Rose and Thorn Path of Witchery, Works of Magick, The Old Ones, and The Old Rites. Learn to work with these spirits and transform your life and practice

“Undoubtedly the most exciting and important book of the decade!” —Dorothy Morrison, author of Utterly Wicked and The Craft

“Truly a work of genius.” —Theitic, executive editor of The Witches’ Almanac

“The underworld powers of magical alchemy await within these pages!” —Orion Foxwood, author of The Candle and the Crossroads
