Dreams of the Moon &
​Nightmares of the Sun

is on pre-sale now

Picture
Dreams of the Moon & Nightmares of the Sun is a two-part work. In its first portion, it presents a lucid, accessible, and potent grimoire of historically based workings of Elementalism, containing the full texts of rituals by which a careful operant might gain influence over the spiritual beings who indwell the four classical elements, in the cause of creating sorcerous feats of gain or desire.

This grimoire, called Letamnin, was the result of occult research and experimentation done by Robin Artisson between 2008 and 2014, and then refined through private co-workings with sorcerous collaborators in the years afterwards. These Elementalist workings have not been seen publicly in this form: fully revised, updated, and with expanded historical and metaphysical materials.

The second portion of this worthy tome is a collection of Artisson’s more recent occult writings, also revised and updated for publication. Topics covered include deep-dive explorations into historical Witch-lore; trance induction techniques and a study of the occult dimensions of sleep paralysis and the lucid states it can produce; ancient protective talismans; spirit-conjuration utilizing simple and old, ground-level methods; an extensive study and analysis of a Welsh Cunning Man’s personal grimoire and an unlocking of many of his esoteric practices and spells; an in-depth study of the relationship between the old Faery Faith and ceremonial magic from Medieval and Early Modern Britain; and a revelatory study of the dreaded Taghairm Nan Cat ritual from Early Modern Scotland.

Dreams of the Moon & Nightmares of the Sun is a masterwork of occult literature, blending real (and sometimes disturbing) occult history with the teaching of practical esoteric techniques that are as well suited for modern practitioners as they were for the sorcerers of earlier times.

For years, Robin Artisson and those he has worked with have discussed the nature of Witchcraft in terms of rituals, charms, and spells from our common and shared history, and ways to bring them to life in the modern day. Adjacent to ritual, in the many works published by Artisson over the years, has always lurked an underlying spectral ecology of relationship with spirit-beings, expressed in different ways.

Now, a deeper and more complete vision of spirituality for Witchcraft, alongside its necessary ritual expressions, is available for a limited time in the form of Artisson’s chief Magisterial work on Witchcraft: Ahrabelos Bok.

This book began in unpublished collections of ritual papers and notes accumulated by Artisson for 30 years, notes of his private workings and research, and work done with human and other-than-human collaborators. From these papers came the foundational documents of organizations like Covenant DeSavyok and the later Elphane Witchdom. From them, came the popular Upon the Rood Day course in practical Witchcraft.

These materials are the cores of a life’s work: Ahrabelos Bok is a clear crystallization of the breakthroughs and critical moments in Artisson’s own private devotional life, and the fruits of his efforts (often in conjunction with others) to comprehend the deeper meaning of historical Witchcraft and its presence in the modern day.

Ahrabelos Bok is a very personal and intimate work, only to be made available to the public for brief periods of time, in this special Draco edition. Inside is found an endless feast of Witch-lore and instructions in the Witching Art, including the process for using the body to empower sorcerous works and many other esoteric feats, descriptions of the great spiritual beings who empower Witchcraft in every age of this world; the casting of Witch Rings and the creation of Witched Water; many devotional rituals to historical and pre-historical spirits who are tutelary powers for Witches; processes for interacting with the Saturnian Land-dwelling Spirit Host; extensive collections of ritual charms and prayers; the full conjuration of The Black Goat and the Earth Children; and an extensive deep-dive into the concept of the Wheel of the Year, with its core metaphysics well elucidated, and accessible rituals and “deeds and doings” that will allow anyone to access it as a wisdom-granting spiritual vision of life.

Featuring interior art by Molly McHenry and Robin Artisson, as well as evocative historical art, Ahrabelos Bok, Draco edition, is 100% human created and produced, down to every tiny level or detail.
