The Path Through the Labyrinth reveals the evolving culture of the West that hides a complete strata of folklore, of traditional skills and wisdom, of ancient arts and festivals. These are still emerging in myth and legend, in song and celebrations, each retaining aspects of a very great initiatory system rooted in the land and its magic. Most availalble sources tell the reader about the how to of magic, but for the first time this book explores the why of magic, and the what happens when . . . of modern magical techniques. In , Marian Green, a highly respected practitioner and teacher of the Western Tradition, examines these questions and guides the reader safely to the heart of the magical maze, and then out again.
