⭐ Reader reviews
Reader rating
Finally got around to ordering this. A text you study rather than simply read. I found myself reading passages aloud just to sit with them. Recommended if you're ready to do the work.
First purchase from this shop. Not a light read, but far more accessible than I feared. Some chapters demand a slow, careful read, and that's exactly the point. Glad I finally picked this up.
Ordered this after seeing it referenced in another book I was studying. It pairs well with more modern commentaries on the same tradition. Would buy from this store again.
I've read excerpts online before, but having the full text is different. It pairs well with more modern commentaries on the same tradition. Shipping was quick too.
Grimassi provides a robust framework for ancestral work, blending practical instruction with rich folklore. The guide excels in offering specific techniques like the Spirit-Rider and altar construction, making it highly useful for hands-on practitioners. However, it may not suit readers seeking purely academic or historical analyses without magical application. Those uncomfortable with intense guided imagery or the concept of bloodline allies might find the approach too esoteric. It is best for those ready to engage actively with their heritage rather than observe it from a distance.
