About this Book

Discover the amazing links between two of the world's oldest spiritual systems and how you can make use of them today, when you read Witchcraft and the Shamanic Journey (previously titled North Star Road) by Kenneth Johnson.

This is an inspiring guide for those who seek to reclaim the ways and lore of their ancestors. Witchcraft and the Shamanic Journey reveals the spiritual experience at the core of the world's religious traditions--shamanism. Johnson has uncovered compelling evidence for the existence of a variety of ecstatic traditions throughout medieval and Renaissance Europe--regional cults that survived into the so-called "Burning Times," when their members were ruthlessly persecuted as Witches.
