Chapters From The Book of Shadows is a superb
audio-recording originally made by an experienced
Old Coven of Witches based in Essex, England during the 1970s. We believe it
to be the most comprehensive compendium of traditional Witchcraft ever produced and a historical
documentation of the Rites of the early Witches. Virtually every aspect
of the Craft is covered making this CD invaluable to the serious student
of the Occult Arts, particularly those who wish to form their own covens
and have been unable to break through the barrier of silence (or ignorance)
which still surrounds so much of the Old Religion today. Particularly useful to
our American cousins who want to go to source and compare that with
what passes for neo-paganism in the U.S. today. This recording contains full instructions for the original methods
of casting of Circles, Preparation and Charging of Magical Tools, Ritual Preparation, Maintaining
Control within the Circle etc.
In addition all
the important Rites and Festivals of Traditional Witchcraft are
included and have been recorded in their entirety so you can simply chant
along with them or learn/adapt them to your own coven. On this amazing recording you will
hear and experience original performances just as they happened of:
Take heart, this recording is not the 'same old same old'. As you will see from the detailed list of contents below this is one of the original sources for all that has been produced about the Craft since - but, we maintain, a lot of that interpretation in modern books and tracts on paganism has been corrupted or misinterpreted. Now you get a chance to see how it can really be from source.
All of these rites are absolutely authentic and are narrated by a truly experienced and initiated High Priest (Frater Sisto) and his Priestess of the Craft. This man was visionary enough to want to enshrine the genuine teachings to protect them from corruption and misinterpretation. At the time the uproar in the Craft was so great when these secrets were first revealed that a lady priestess who was originally initiated by Gerald Gardner cast the 'Curse of the Goddess' upon the coven which revealed the information. That was a very long time ago and with today's new attitude against secrecy it seems unduly harsh but does give a clue as to the authenticity of this recording. Distribution of the recording continued and has reportedly influenced for the better many of the existing Neo-Pagan covens in the U.K. and U.S.A. The originator of the recording passed to the Summerlands some years ago (from natural causes we hasten to add!) and bestowed exclusive rights to reproduce this recording to the Sorcerer's Apprentice®. Chapters from the Book of Shadows is only available from the S.A. and at just £15.97 including post should be in every Coven's library. Don't miss it!

(magic), and Transubstantiation (life in spirit). About 85% of the world's population believe in
the world of spirit. Only 7% of the world's population are
atheists (scientific materialists) but these few people have a disproportionate influence over

for a particular purpose we mean that traditionally it has been held by sages to be successful for that
purpose or/and that historically it is reputed to work in a novel, legendary or peculiar way

REASONABLE RISK: Advice; Personal Consultations; Recommendations for Applications: Marabas
has an unparalleled grasp of esoteric methods worldwide but he is not a god - he cannot
indemnify customers from risk. Only you know your exact circumstances, your medical
history, state of health and the progression of the problem so far. Only you can judge
whether it is in your interests to apply magic in your life. If you ask us how a magician
might resolve a problem then Marabas will tell you but in our eyes magic is a force used
to modify the course of destiny and can cause peripheral changes which are not anticipated
therefore all magical operations are by qualification inherently experimental.
Our products are genuine, contain proper materials and most importantly are designed with
adept knowledge of magical method. You cannot get a better chance of successfully
experimenting with magic but be under no illusion - it is an experiment undertaken entirely
at your own risk. The S.A. offers raw materials and literature for curiosity's sake
only. Marabas's historical knowledge is given if asked. Under present law Marabas cannot
'prescribe' magical actions or cures; we suggest only what an adept might do in your
place. To recapitulate: We are not selling you the magic 'cure', though it may very
well turn out that way. We are providing the opportunity to experiment with genuine magical
methods to open up new doors in your life. We can tell you how others have changed their
lives and how you might choose to do it for yourself but you are responsible for your own
experiments. We cannot indemnify people from the repercussions of foolishness but we
will sincerely do everything we can to ensure your genuine success and this will be the
limit of our liability. Marabas's suggestions will always comply with U.K. law but if you
are unsure whether a suggestion might breach local laws or regulations then you should
consult your legal advisor before ordering.
Clients must be cognizant that all Magic and ritual work is experimental and therefore
undertaken by them at their own inception and at their own risk. We provide all reasonable
warnings and protections for our clients but cannot be held responsible for applications of
their own invention of which we are uninformed. We will readily offer our opinion on the
advisability of proposed applications of our products without charge. We expect the typical
customer to be reasonably fit and healthy. If you are significantly unwell, subject to
allergies, are taking a course of treatment, are pregnant, a registered drug addict, have a
history of chronic ailments or are undergoing psychiatric help then it is your
responsibility to clear your intentions with your doctor and alert us before
you embark upon a purchase. .
