Six Ways by Aidan Wachter

Six Ways by Aidan Wachter

I cover the world that was and set it aside.

I create the world that is that I may inhabit it fully.

I build a bridge into the Otherworld,

a place between Awake and Dreaming,

a place between Matter and Spirit,

a place between what was, what is, and what is to come.

Six Ways is a guide to magic and sorcery - a veritable desert island

handbook of magical practices - distilled through years of Aidan

Wachter's private magical practice. It focuses on developing healthy

spirit ecologies by meshing you, the practitioner, within the larger

Field of manifestation and the allies that surround us, all viewed

from an animist perspective.

The practices contained herein are universally applicable and

accessible to anyone from absolute beginner to lifer magicians.

These approaches and entries help you to find your place within

the Field - the whole of manifest and unmanifest reality - and

strengthen your position within it. Engaging with Six Ways will

improve your capacity to receive useful information and discern

clear paths of action, and work effectively to bring about the

changes you desire.

Aidan Wachter is a well-known talismanic jeweler in the magical, pagan, and occult communities. In 1982, he first became aware of the magical arts, and in 1987, he began serious study, mostly as a means of obtaining control over unwelcome possession experiences. He is an eclectic witchcraft, chaos magic, ceremonial magic, folk magic, and freestyle sorcery practitioner who has worked with numerous streams of witchcraft, chaos magic, ceremonial magic, folk magic, and freestyle sorcery. He is an animist, and his work is guided by the spirit and focused on results. Austin Osman Spare, Rosaleen Norton, Dorji Banzarov, and Jan Fries are among his spiritual forefathers. With his wife, a pack of goats and dogs, and a small army of hens, he lives in the highlands of the desert Southwest.
