The Hidden Landscape by Christoper Orapello
To a witch, the value of the land itself stretches wider and burrows deeper than the blessings bestowed upon them by any harvest or fertility rite. Get regional - learn about the hidden landscape and what it has to offer the witch who seeks to expand their practice through animism and local lore.
Christopher Orapello is an artist, witch, author, and animist with a background in western occultism, ceremonial magick, Freemasonry and has been on his journey for over 20 years. He co-hosts the podcast Down at the Crossroads with his partner, Tara Maguire, and is a signature artist with Sacred Source (a leading producer and distributor of ancient deity images in North America). After a growing desire for a more locally-based form of witchcraft, he and Tara founded Blacktree coven in 2014, where they set out to forge a modern approach to Traditional Witchcraft for a new era of praxis. His and Tara's first book together- Besom, Stang, and Sword- will be available December 2018 from Red Wheel/Weiser Books.

Introduction to Traditional Witchcraft by Tara Maguire
Traditional witchcraft is a wild beast with many parents and even more children. A chimera of folk magic, shamanism, history and folklore, ancestor veneration, and respect for the land- walking these crooked paths will help you forge stronger connections to your immediate surroundings and lead you to deepen your practice on a more personal level.
Tara Maguire has been a practicing witch for over 30 years, on a path which has been crookedly influenced by Isobel Gowdie, Marie Laveau, and William S. Burroughs. Growing up as a weird kid in and around the New Jersey Pine Barrens, she found witchcraft within the tales and shadows which dwell there. She co-hosts the podcast, Down at the Crossroads, with her sweetheart, Christopher Orapello, and together, they founded the Blacktree tradition- a traditional witchcraft coven which exists in the heart of southern New Jersey. Her first book- Besom, Stang, and Sword- co-written with Chris, is due out from Red Wheel/Weiser Books December 2018.

Divination in Druidry, by Red Oak Grove
Channeling is the practice of intentionally allowing a spiritual being to temporarily inhabit your body and mind, usually for the purpose of communication with an audience. Since 1997 the members of Red Oak Grove have been practicing this ancient technique with amazing results. The information we have received from Brigedd, Lleu, Rhainnon, Math ap Mathonwy & Cernunnos has been incredibly powerful..AND entertaining! Join us for an hour as some of our Channelers tell personal stories about these profound experiences. Presented by Bard Dafydd, Vela Chandra and Cath Eirian.
