The Powwow Grimoire by Robert Phoenix Pdf

"Out of the culure of the Pennsylvania Germans comes a tradition of faith healing and folk magic known as Powwow. Rooted in the grimoires of the Medieval Catholic church and preserved amongst the early settlers of Pennsylvania, Powwwoing has endured for over two hundred years as a collection of charms, spells, cures, and practices that are used to heal, combat witchcraft, protect the homestead and exemplify the power of faith in God. Robert Chapman, expert on the tradition of Powwowing, presents an in-depth look at the practices of the Powwow Doctor; including healing charms, protection charms, ceremonial magic circles, divination, herbalism, astrology, anti-witchcraft charms, and more. This is the most comprehnsive how-to guide on the subject in the spirit of the old grimoires and a must read for the would-be Powwower"--Back cover.

Pow-Wow: Traditional Folk and Grimoire Magic by Mark Stavish Pdf

This Study Guide is based on a long awaited seminar on traditional magical teachings found in 'pow-wow' or Brauche of the Pennsylvania Germans. These practices include the traditional grimoires, as well as the teachings of Paracelsus and Agrippa, and the rare philosophical and visionary end of the spectrum of Jacob Boehme, Johannes Kelpius, and Conrad Beissel. Because the world view of the Renaissance magus (from which the braucher is a direct descendant) is somewhat different than what we see in many modern magical groups. Topics to include: -Offering prayers, the various classes of beings, and how to address them. -How to make traditional red protection cords, as well as black. -Traditional charms, their theory and practice. -A survey of the Three Books of Agrippa, the Fourth Book, and the Arbatel in practical magic. -A short course on defensive magic: eggs for cleansing and healing, prayer cloths, witch bottles, and using the SATOR Square. -How to write a Himmelsbrief (Letter from Heaven) -Various forms of Holy Water, Holy Oil, Brauche bags, and making more tools of the trade. -Psalm magic as found with The Sixth and Seventh Books of Moses, as well as in hoodoo. -Parting the Veil and Collecting Spirits: Summoning angelic, demonic, elemental, and humans to the edge of the circle. -Invocation without a circle, magic mirrors, etc. This book is a rare and unique opportunity to learn about the fundamentals of these teachings and their importance in modern life.

Satan's Counterfeit Healing by Lawrence E. Burkholder Pdf

“The Christian church worldwide has been taken prisoner by Satan’s counterfeit healing.” This statement is based on the author’s personal experience, modest exposure to the Toronto Blessing, observation of parachurch healing ministries, and extensive historical reconstructions. Satan’s Counterfeit Healing presents and evaluates Satan’s supernatural healing from the Paleolithic period (ca. 45000 BCE) to the contemporary church. The guiding thesis is that Satan and his demonic surrogates perform miracles which are evident as psi paranormal phenomena. These manifestations include physical and exorcistic supernatural healings. Paleolithic and Neolithic periods produced Great Mother goddess worship and healing, which have persisted ever since. These idolatries, combined with OT nature gods, were a backdrop to Jesus’ true miracles. For two thousand years of church history there’s been a tug-of-war between true and false healing. Mother goddess as Mariological shrine healing joined with natural and demonic magic, and esoteric energy psi. Alongside these the Holy Spirit has raised up genuine healers and their ministries. Modern healing is marked by energy counterfeits and faith healing, the latter especially accompanied by trance, false prophecy, and psi transformations. True divine healing can be recovered when Christians repudiate nature gods, reject false prophecy, and restore proper eschatology.

Grimoires by Owen Davies Pdf

What is a grimoire? The word has a familiar ring to many people, particularly as a consequence of such popular television dramas as Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Charmed. But few people are sure exactly what it means. Put simply, grimoires are books of spells that were first recorded in the Ancient Middle East and which have developed and spread across much of the Western Hemisphere and beyond over the ensuing millennia. At their most benign, they contain charms and remedies for natural and supernatural ailments and advice on contacting spirits to help find treasures and protect from evil. But at their most sinister they provide instructions on how to manipulate people for corrupt purposes and, worst of all, to call up and make a pact with the Devil. Both types have proven remarkably resilient and adaptable and retain much of their relevance and fascination to this day. But the grimoire represents much more than just magic. To understand the history of grimoires is to understand the spread of Christianity, the development of early science, the cultural influence of the print revolution, the growth of literacy, the impact of colonialism, and the expansion of western cultures across the oceans. As this book richly demonstrates, the history of grimoires illuminates many of the most important developments in European history over the last two thousand years.

The Red Church Or the Art of Pennsylvania German Braucherei by C. R. Bilardi Pdf

A comprehensive guide to the history, theory and practice of Pow Wow, this book draws upon historical documentation, traditional methods, and a life of personal experience. Pow Wow, or Braucherei, as it is known by its practitioners, is a system of folk magic that has its roots in Christian and Pre-Christian Germany, but its character is wholy American - the quintissential American magical system. Drawing on quotes from the Bible, qabalistic principles and old gromoires, it is empowered by the Holy Trinity, and most practitioners consider themselves to be Christian, much like the Cunning Folk of England. The final chapter, about Doctor Santee, references material and uses a photograph that is copyright GLHoke, and used with permission. "The Red Church: The Art of Pennsylvania German Braucherei is the finest book on German magic to be seen in decades. Comprehensive in its historical, philosophical and cultural roots, The Red Church is a book that will be appreciated by academics and modern practitioners of not just folk and ceremonial magic alike, but also energetic and faith healing, symbolism, and cultural psychology. Extensively researched and documented, no one interested in the survival of Medieval and Renaissance magic into the modern era should be without a copy of it within easy reach." - Mark Stavish, Director of Studies, Institute for Hermetic Studies, author of, The Path of Alchemy, Freemasonry - Rituals, Symbols and History of the Secret Society, and Between the Gates: Lucid Dreaming, Astral Projection and the Body of Light.

Powwowing Among the Pennsylvania Dutch by David W. Kriebel Pdf

Known in Pennsylvania Dutch as brauche or braucherei, the folk-healing practice of powwowing was thought to draw upon the power of God to heal all manner of physical and spiritual ills. Yet some people believed, and still believe today, that this power to heal came not from God, but from the devil. Controversy over powwowing came to a climax in 1929 with the York Hex Murder Trial, in which one powwower from York County, Pennsylvania, killed another powwower (who, he believed, had placed a hex on him). In Powwowing Among the Pennsylvania Dutch, David Kriebel examines the practice of powwowing in a scholarly light and shows that, contrary to popular belief, the practice of powwowing is still active today. Because powwowing lacks extensive scholarly documentation, David Kriebel&’s research is both a groundbreaking inquiry and a necessity for the scholar of Pennsylvania German history and culture. The fact that powwowing is still practiced may come as a surprise to some readers, but included in this book are the interviews Kriebel had with living powwowers during his seven years of fieldwork in southeastern and central Pennsylvania. Along with these interviews, Kriebel includes biographical sketches of seven living powwowers; descriptions of powwowing as it was practiced in years past, compared with the practice today; a discussion of the belief of powwowing as healing; and a discussion of the future, if any, of powwowing, and what it will take for powwowing to continue to survive.

Ossman & Steel's Classic Household Guide to Appalachian Folk Healing by Jake Richards Pdf

A long-treasured but forgotten classic of folk healing, with an introduction and commentary by the author of Backwoods Witchcraft and Doctoring the Devil. Ossman & Steel’s Guide to Health or Household Instructor (its original title) is a collection of spells, remedies, and charms. The book draws from the old Pennsylvania Dutch and German powwow healing practices that in turn helped shape Appalachian folk healing, conjure, rootwork, and many folk healing traditions in America. Jake Richards, author of Backwoods Witchcraft and Doctoring the Devil, puts these remedies in context, with practical advice for modern-day “backwoods” healers interested to use them today. The first part contains spells and charms for healing wounds, styes, broken bones, maladies, and illnesses of all sorts. The second part includes other folk remedies using ingredients based on sympathetic reasoning, including sulfuric acid, gunpowder, or other substances for swelling, toothache, headache, and so on. These remedies are presented here for historic interest, to help better understand how folk medicine evolved in America. It is Jake Richard’s hope that reintroducing this work will reestablish its position as a useful household helper in the library of every witch or country healer.
