Summary

In "Uncle Terry," Charles Clark Munn presents a poignant and introspective exploration of the rugged American frontier, encapsulating the trials and tribulations of a life steeped in simplicity and toil. Employing a richly descriptive literary style punctuated by evocative imagery, Munn crafts a narrative that intertwines adventure with philosophical musings, delving into the complexities of human relationships against the backdrop of a changing society. The book mirrors the themes of naturalism prevalent in the late 19th century, offering a profound commentary on the indomitable spirit of individualism in an era marked by growth and upheaval. Charles Clark Munn, an avid observer of the American landscape and a passionate chronicler of its people's experiences, draws from his own life and background to breathe authenticity into the characters and their struggles. His mastery of storytelling is deeply rooted in his experiences and the cultural settings he inhabited, which informs his insightful portrayal of the universal quest for belonging and purpose within the human experience. "Uncle Terry" is a compelling read for anyone interested in Americana and the nuance of human existence amidst the backdrop of nature's grandeur. Munn's seamless blend of introspection and narrative adventure invites readers to reflect on their own paths, making this work not only a tale of exploration but also a journey of self-discovery.

    In Old World Witchcraft, noted author Raven Grimassi covers totally new territory--in his work and in the world of popular witchcraft books published in the last few decades.This book is actually about “an enchanted worldview,” one that has not necessarily been inherited from the beliefs and practices of any particular region and one which is available to us today.The “Old World” in the title is actually about a magical view of the Plant Kingdom and the spirits attached to it. While Grimassi’s previous books discuss the cultural expressions and commonality of witchcraft beliefs and practices in general, this book penetrates much deeper.Old World Witchdraft reveals rarely discussed topics such as the concept of Shadow as the organic memory of the earth. Readers will learn rooted techniques that possess power because these ways have always been connected to it. They will learn methods of interfacing with the ancestral current and with the organic memory of the earth. Through these they can connect with the timeless arts and learn methods of empowerment directly from the ancient source.Totally new information about familiar tools is presented. For example, the mortar and pestle is a tool for spell casting, a device that creates interfacing with plant spirits and with shadow, and a focal point for veneration of the Plant Kingdom. Grimassi also presents the art of using plant ashes for magical sigil work.This book is for people who have had their fill of books that say the same things over and over, who want to take the next step, and who are eager for the more rooted ways that have remained largely hidden.

    Explores the roots of witchcraft while providing an integrated magical system to serve the modern witchRaven Grimassi is among the pioneering authors of the modern witchcraft renaissance. In What We Knew in the Night, he presents a cohesive and complete system of witchcraft based on traditional sources. The author’s premise is that, beginning in the 1980s, with the rise of modern metaphysical publishing, authors began presenting very personal witchcraft practices. In the process, traditional and formerly well-established practices fell into obscurity, which potentially lead to confusion.What We Knew in the Night uncovers and clarifies those buried gems for a new generation, assembling and integrating key components of witchcraft, past and present. Grimassi lays out key mystical and practical foundations of witchcraft and restores their important role.Sharing lessons and advice from his own almost 50 years of personal study and practice, Grimassi explores what he describes as the “heart of the old rites.” He also offers practical instructions and a clear 5-step process of empowerment—one chapter for each step —for anyone who wants to walk the path of witchcraft: Virtue of the MoonThe WaftingThe Witch’s BladeThe Clay PentacleThe Witch’s RingHaving accomplished these steps, the reader will possess the “quintessence of witchery” and be firmly grounded in the arcane art of witchcraft.
