Rooted in the most foundational aspects of esoteric perceptions - the Doctrine of Correspondences and Contagion - and the symbolic and ritual practices that spring from it, this book will provide readers with not only an insight into a living tradition but also the means to practice it. Ritual Purification, Exorcism \u0026amp; Defensive Magic is the edited and refined transcripts from a seminar presented by Mark Stavish, in which he publically discussed for the first time little known aspects of traditional Pennsylvania German folk magic, also known as pow-wow or braucherei. These topics include: making of prayer cloths, so-called 'witch bottles, ' tattoos and body markings from the view of the invisible domain, dealing with ghosts and demons, creation of 'Letters from Heaven, ' magical barriers, and the role of esoteric tradition and connecting to the spiritual hierarchy of traditions.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Alfred DeStefano III, Mark Stavish\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1722494832\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781722494834\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/05\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 166\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.51lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.02h x 5.98w x 0.35d","brand":"Alfred DeStefano III","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43988003782911,"sku":"9781722494834","price":12.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_8ee9eaa7-547a-48db-b669-b122c1339172.jpg?v=1683292081","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/ritual-purification-exorcism-defensive-alfred-destefano-iii-9781722494834","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
