Is shamanism all that different from modern Witchcraft? According to Christopher Penczak, Wicca's roots go back 20,000 years to the Stone Age shamanic traditions of tribal cultures worldwide. A fascinating exploration of the Crafts shamanic origins, The Temple of Shamanic Witchcraft offers year-and-a-day training in Shamanic Witchcraft.
Penczak's third volume of Witchcraft teachings corresponds to the water element — guiding the reader into this realm of emotion, reflection, and healing. The Temple of Shamanic Witchcraft contains twelve formal lessons covering shamanic cosmologies, journeying, dreamwork, animal/plant/stone medicine, totems, soul retrieval, and psychic surgery. Each lesson includes exercises (using modern techniques and materials), assignments, and helpful tips. The training concludes with a ritual for self-initiation into the art of the Shamanic Witch — culminating in an act of healing, rebirth, and transformation.
