This book contains a unique blend of folklore and hands-on Witchcraft, all centered around the use of animal skulls. Contained herein are the manifestations of the author’s own personal style of Witchcraft as well as methods for magically finding a skull, ways of purifying the skull, and instructions on how to imbue the skull with spirit presence for the purpose of divination, insight, and other acts of magic. Also included are rituals for the physical manifestation of the spirit and instructions for petitioning magical favors by way of spirit intervention. The Witch seeking a stronger, more intense connection with the spirit world will find good use of the rituals and methods given.\nBlake Malliway, a Michigan native, has been a practicing Witch since childhood. As a self-proclaimed oddball, Blake has always had an affinity for the other world and tends to incorporate his spirit allies into his practice whenever he can. When he’s not working magic, he can generally be found spending time at Malliway Bros, his Chicago-based Witchcraft shop that he co-owns with his brother, Wycke. Both Blake and his brother make a point to travel to Cornwall, England several times a year to disconnect from the hectic city life for a bit. While out there, they make a point to connect with other Witches to learn other points of view on the Craft and new ways of making magic. Blake currently resides in Highland Park, IL with his spoiled black cat, Feens.\nFrom the Author\n"This potent ritual will bring all of your senses to full attention. It's eerie, thought provoking, and can be downright terrifying for those who lack the mental clarity to carry out the rite in a peaceful state of mind. The purpose of this ritual is to give a visual manifestation of the spirit in the skull. It gives a face to the voice, so to speak, and lets you see who you are talking to."
