If we have howled together, this means you. Special thanks to those who helped me with editing, proofreading, and inspiration: the amazing author and editor Brandy Williams, the talented feral artist Vasco Brighi, and the creative and stalwart Peter Carr, and much honor and thanks to my loving feral friends from many circles including the Horus Maal Lodge, the Ordo Templi Orientis, Golden Dawn, and my beloved Coven of the Mystical Merkaba. Also, a shout out to the werewolf band Man with a Mission for a cool writing soundtrack—domo! From my feral heart I dedicate this book to my wild nonverbal autistic son, Forrest, who taught me the meaning of perseverance and that truth and love need no words. Also, to my little wolf, Faunus the doggo, who reminds me daily that all us animals instinctively live, die, hunt, play, and are wholly one within nature. Finally, this book is an offering of love to the great Wolf Spirit and all the beautiful endangered beasts: may their cries and howls fill our hearts and awaken us to halt the slaughter and save the Wildness, and so save ourselves. Join all us beasts in this great work as you will, with love. So may it be.

PREFACE Ihave always been into werewolves, and if you’ve picked up this book, I’m guessing you are too. As a kid, I loved the old classic werewolf movies and, being a wild child, delighted in roaming and howling in the woods with my pack of feral friends. I grew up, as we all must, and I put such things aside. I had an adult life. There were joys and tragedies, and I enjoyed a kind of normal and mundane life for a couple of decades. Then, suddenly, I was hit by a completely unexpected total personal disaster. Without warning, I lost my home, my art studio, my temple, my job, my savings, and even my dog. I was utterly despondent and alone and depressed and traumatized beyond belief. I felt I was finished with this life. I ranted and prowled and felt like a monster, numb, useless until a friend said something to me that stuck in my head: “Embrace your monster!” Something inside me awoke with a jolt, a part of me I’d suppressed and ignored most of my life. Something wild and vital broke through the despair. Everything suddenly shifted. What the hell was happening? My inner beast, my monster, was suddenly howling at me to heed the instincts I had switched off all my life.

  • US Pagans and Indigenous Americans: Land and Identity
    religions Article US Pagans and Indigenous Americans: Land and Identity Lisa A. McLoughlin Independent Scholar, Northfield, MA 01360, USA; [email protected] Received: 2 January 2019; Accepted: 27 February 2019; Published: 1 March 2019 Abstract: In contrast to many European Pagan communities, ancestors and traditional cultural knowledge of Pagans in the United States of America (US Pagans) are rooted in places we no longer reside. Written from a US Pagan perspective, for an audience of Indigenous Americans, Pagans, and secondarily scholars of religion, this paper frames US Paganisms as bipartite with traditional and experiential knowledge; explores how being transplanted from ancestral homelands affects US Pagans’ relationship to the land we are on, to the Indigenous people of that land, and any contribution these may make to the larger discussion of indigeneity; and works to dispel common myths about US Pagans by offering examples of practices that the author suggests may be respectful to Indigenous American communities, while inviting Indigenous American comments on this assessment. Keywords: US Pagans; Indigenous Americans; identity; land; cultural appropriation; indigeneity 1. Introduction Indigenous American scholar Vine Deloria Jr. (Deloria 2003, pp. 292–93) contends: “That a fundamental element of religion is an intimate relationship with the land on which the religion is practiced should be a major premise of future theological concern.” Reading of Indigenous American and Pagan literatures1 indicates that both communities, beyond simply valuing their relationship with the land, consider it as part of their own identity. As for example, in this 1912 Indigenous American quote: “The soil you see is not ordinary soil—it is the dust of the blood, the flesh, and the bones of our ancestors.

  • The Third Secret of Fatima
    Fatima Apparitional Experiences Dr James Paul Pandarakalam An apparition may provide evidence of the authenticity of its manifestation at a physical site by offering predictions that are to be fulfilled at a later date. One of the distinctive features of the events at Fatima in Portugal in 1917 is the fulfilment in our own time of the predictions made. Ever since the occurrence of these famous visionary experiences, among observers and believers there has been an exponential interest in the third secret. Voice phenomena observed during Marian apparitions such as those at Fatima have analogies with externally controlled recurrent spontaneous psychokinetic (RSPK) activity, and visionary experiences involving RSPK or RSPK-like activity may be instances of apparitions at a physical site. The voice extinction and sensory disconnection demonstrated in the Fatima percipients could be explained as psychokinetic-like activity on the part of the apparition. True apparitional experiences prove the existence of psi-like phenomena and discarnate survival. In general, paranormal phenomena involve non-physical, physical and social events. Only physical events are accessible to scientific study. Marian apparitional experiences may be subjected to scientific analysis, but Marian apparition is beyond the scientific realm. The Fatima apparitional events inform research into post-mortem existence and offer a complementary insight into our current knowledge of the discarnate realm. Marian apparitions may be regarded as an antidote to the afflictions of the present century. Introduction Several hundreds of apparitional experiences have been claimed to have occurred in the twentieth century. Marian apparitional experiences have been reported in nearly all the continents of the world in the later half of that century.

  • Downloaded Their Wisdom from the Ancient Sunken Library of the Atlantians
    CHAPTER 13 THE BRIGHT DARKNESS-PERSO AL INSIGHTS INTO THE ENTHEOGENIC USE OF KETAMINE Julian Vayne My entheogenic explorations with the substance known as ketamine began when I was four years old. At that age, I suffered from an astigmatism af- fecting my left eye. This led to a planned admission to the hospital and an operation to correct the problem. The anesthetic used on me was ketamine, a drug commonly employed for surgery on children and the elderly (Couper et al., 2013). Ketamine is a very safe, reliable medicine (Jansen, 2004, p. 267) and also a medicine that can provoke strange visions, distortions of space and time, and even, 1 later discovered, open the door to peak spiritual experiences (Jansen, 2004<,p. 267). For years after this operation, two things haunted me: The first was a vision, a nightmare. Something that I'd see in dreams when under stress (1 was something of a worrisome child), during fevers, and sometimes in the hypnagogic or hypnopompic states. The vision was of an egg. Not a realistic object but a stylized black-and-white ovoid shape in a 2D space that filled my entire visual field. Bisected at the widest part of the figure, this egg would appear on a background of black and white. As the top of the egg shape was filled with black, so the field behind that part of the shape would switch to white, and vice versa, for the bottom of the egg. Then the picture would shift, the monochromatic shades switching around, faster and faster until the black seemed white and the white dark.

  • A Search for the Truth of Near Death Experiences
    A Search for the Truth of Near Death Experiences Dr James Paul Pandarakalam Introduction The existence of so-called Near Death Experiences (NDEs), in which dying people report having mystical sensations before being resuscitated, is now widely accepted by cognitive scientists as a respectable research idea. Over the years, various explanations have been put forward for the positive variety of NDEs. Early investigators attached the importance of the transcendental aspects of this experience but these views were challenged by biological explanations. The aim of this paper is to evaluate the different interpretations from a biological and parapsychological perspective as well as in the light of the newer observations of particle physics. Selective survey of the may also help to form a framework for future research. Features of cluster analysis and a case example are given. Cultural differences are noted. Biological and transcendental interpretations have obvious pitfalls. An intermediate position is advanced here – that the NDE is a combination of individual hallucination and true extra sensory perception. The current models of mind are inadequate to explain NDEs. Study of NDEs is useful for a deeper understanding of mind. NDEs can be better explained if the existence of an extra-cerebral component is conceptualised in association with the brain even though this non-physical aspect is unobservable with the present day instrumentation. Characteristics of the NDE NDEs are experienced at the moment of imminent or anticipated death but before biological death. They are triggered by various situations such as accident, life-threatening illnesses, suicide attempts and operations or births. Near-death experiencers (NDErs) are quite often clinically dead.

  • An Elusive Roebuck Luciferianism and Paganism in Robert Cochrane’S Witchcraft
    Correspondences 1.1 (2013) 75–101 ISSN 2053-7158 (Online) correspondencesjournal.com An Elusive Roebuck Luciferianism and Paganism in Robert Cochrane’s Witchcraft Ethan Doyle White E-mail: [email protected] Web: http://ethandoylewhite.blogspot.com Abstract The English occultist Robert Cochrane (1931–1966) has remained an enigmatic figure ever since his death under mysterious circumstances almost fifty years ago. The Magister of a coven known as the Clan of Tubal Cain, Cochrane was a co-founder of Cochranian Witchcraft and a vocal critic of Gerald Gardner (1884–1964) and mainstream elements of the Wiccan movement. Cochrane’s legacy is today evident in a variety of contemporary magico-religious groups, including the rejuvenated Clan, the 1734 tradition and the wider “Traditional Witchcraft” current of Western esotericism. Recent academic thought has maintained that Cochrane’s tradition was a form of contemporary Paganism akin to that of Gardner, although this has not gone unchallenged; in recent years, Cochrane’s successor Shani Oates (1959–) has argued that Cochranianism is not a tradition of the Pagan Craft, but should instead be understood as a Luciferian and Gnostic spiritual path quite distinct from contemporary Paganism. In this article, the author endeavours to explore this complicated issue, using both historical textual sources and information obtained from oral histories.

  • Fireclown's Basic Booklist by Fireclown ([email protected])
    FireClown's Basic Booklist by Fireclown ([email protected]) Suggested reading for the confused AMC reader, with some pointers on locating as well as content, not comprehensive and extremely subjective. Basic Books-- Liber Null & Psychonaut, Peter J. Carroll This is the best basic intro, goes into much theory and some practice primarily rooted in Austin Spare, Aleister Crowley, etc...gives good info on Chaoist Jargon, such as use of the ideas 'chaos, kia, paradigm paradox modulated, etc. The sigils section is born out of the works of Austin Osman Spare, and are simple and basic. His work on the Alphabet of Desire might mean something to him, but in view of Spare I can't tell where he came up with the stuff. Good practical work in many sections, much odd theorizing, such as what happens to the Kia after death. All and all, an impressive work, which should be read by anyone interested in magick. Chaos Condensed, Phil Hine, original chapbook, 1992 Phoenix Publications and Chaos International. I love this book. It is short, extremely practical, often hilarious, and is everything that the book of the same name, published 1995 by New Falcon fails to be at four times its length. The Book of Results, Ray Sherwin,1978, 1980, 1983, 1992. The '92 edition published by Revelations 23 Press. This is perhaps my favorite Chaotext. Sherwin co-founded the IOT, and left sometime later, I can't recall when. Fifty pages of highly directed, highly intelligent, highly practical work using sigils to perform magick in all areas of life.
