Description
The number of intermediate practitioners of the Craft is growing. As they stand at the threshold of advanced practice, they need a teacher to help them onto a new path that will bring them closer to the deities. Fast-paced, no-nonsense, and thorough, Advanced Witchcraft is that teacher. Practical applications include shapeshifting, practising shamanism to heal the shattered soul, pathworking to the source of creation, and much more.
