The Witch's Book of Mysteries

by Devin Hunter

Overview

Reclaim Control of Your Magic and Your Life

Transcend Your Limitations and Enter the Pyramid of Light and the Labyrinth of Darkness

Devin Hunter, author of groundbreaking works The Witch's Book of Power and The Witch's Book of Spirits, makes a powerful statement on how you can deepen your Witch Power and further develop your relationships with familiars, guides, spirits, and gods. The Witch's Book of Mysteries invites you to embark on a pivotal journey designed to help break you free of the illusory cultural energies that hold you back from true magical vitality.

With spells and rituals drawn from the author's own book of shadows, this book explores energetic self-orientation, the Witch's Eye, and the Witch's Tree—techniques that will support and embolden you on your quest to achieve personal gnosis. Learn the extraordinary practices of the Witch's Dream and the Witch's Sabbat, and initiate into the mysteries of the Cosmic Grigori, primordial guardians of space, time, matter, energy, and quintessence. Ultimately, the path of the witch takes you to the six gates of the Labyrinth of Diana. Through these gates, the authentic nature of the soul is found and God Herself is revealed.

Editorial Reviews

"Devin's series presents us with a new kind of witch: one who does not merely learn spells, but lives them. ... Even if witchcraft is not your path, there is a treasure trove of information here useful to those who work with spirits, with psychic ability, and with any inborn power they're seeking to harness. Highly recommended."—Michelle Belanger, author of Walking the Twilight Path

"This book does not disappoint! The final installment of the Witch Power series delivers even more essential techniques to help you build your repertoire of witchy tools. It's exactly what this series calls for with additional ritual technology, insight, and stories to lead you on your path to personal mastery. So, what are you waiting for? Break your chains, tread the mill, and fly!"—Christopher Orapello, podcaster, artist, and coauthor of Besom, Stang & Sword

"For the reader willing to dive deep, to invest the time to gain the hands-on experience, and who has built (or is willing to build) a solid groundwork in the basics of meditation, energy practices, ritual, and psychic development, this is pure gold. To use a term that is too often used, it is truly a grimoire of modern witchcraft. 'Grimoire' is a word that gets tossed about a lot these days, and usually means a hodgepodge of old and new material wrapped in a fancy dress of pseudo-archaic language. This, however, is the actual item. Top notch, and highly recommended."—Aidan Wachter, author of Six Ways

"In The Witch's Book of Mysteries, Devin Hunter takes readers on an incredible journey into the deepest depths of Witchcraft. Masterfully combining elements of art, science, and magic, Hunter illuminates long hidden components of the Craft which add a felt sense of primordial connection within oneself and along one's individual path."—Kelden, author of the blog By Athame and Stang
