Publisher's Synopsis
This text recaptures the vigour and power of ancient witchcraft through an innovative fusion of Shamanism and Pagan ritual. It describes how the use of masks in witchcraft ritual can lead to altered states of consciousness, creating a direct channel of communication between the masked dancer and the Pagan gods. The authors discuss the power of the mask, the historical and religious connections between masked rituals and the underworld, and a discussion of the trance itself.
