Wisptober Day 6: Vestige

 "There used to be a mage living out in the woods, say the villagers. However, if you happen upon the vestige of the old atelier, all you might ecounter is a huge beast that has forgotten how to be human.“

Is this accidentally inspired by Witch Hat Atelier? Apparently.XD (I swear I only realised while doing the finishing touches.I blame it on me adding a cape.XD)

(Magick) Book Review Time!

Werewolf Magick by Denny Sargent

Hello all, I've been meaning to write this review for a while now and am just now finally getting to it.

I've noticed more people buying this book, and just wanted to give my opinions on it as someone who's been doing magickal workings for my whole life, especially werewolf related Magick as a born lycanthrope.

Of course, I will preface that it is totally okay if you disagree with my thoughts on it, if you enjoy this book and it's contents work for you, then that's not for me to tell you that you can't. Practices are very personal and I'm not an authority on what anyone can or cannot do. Anything I say also is to mean no offense to the author; Denny seems like an overall nice guy and I have watched some of his webinars, he seems like a pleasant and good person in all.

However this is a mainly critical review.

First, I would like to start off with the things I did like. I greatly appreciate the first chapters on lore of werewolves from around the world and different cultures. I feel like he did pretty well on this chapter, though there were some things left out. I understand that gathering this kind of data takes a lot of work, so I'm not going to pass judgement on some things not making it into the book.

The second thing I like is any sections (which are spread throughout the book) that explain being a werewolf / lycanthrope in a rather scientific way, using real science to back up why we do what we do and how.

Finally, I appreciate is that with every single subject, spell, and action he describes in this book he always starts off with or finishes with noting that this won't be for everyone and to do what feels personally right. I always like to see that from authors, and it's not something I see often.

Now onto my criticisms.

I feel that this book mixes a lot of practices in a less than sensical, conducive, or respectful way. I worry about this mixing because while it is okay to follow multiple pantheons and have multiple ways of practicing it is not okay to mix them in a way which conflates them with each other. I highly question this method of multi practice because it is not respectful to the cultures they originate from, and it is especially disrespectful to the God's and Goddesses. There are a few times methods reeked of appropriation, and other times it felt flat out unknowledgeable.

Something that personally bothered me because as my followers would know I work with this deity, is in chapter 8, titled; "Werewolf Magick with the dead" which contains the spell titled; "Ritual for Honoring and Guiding the Dead with Anpu". He notes in the beginning of this spell that in quote; "This ritual is a bit of an outlier because it honors and invokes the ancient Egyptian werewolf God, Anubis or Anpu, a deity not mentioned until now because until the writing of this book I did not know there was actually a wolf God."

Now I will take you back to the very beginning of the book, in the author blurb it reads in quote; "In the magickal world, he has been initiate of or an accepted member of a number of esoteric traditions and groups" which lists the "Horus Ma'at Lodge" as one of them. Seeing as how closely Anpu works with Ma'at and simply his plain out popularity amongst Kemetics I find it extremely odd that he would not have heard of Anpu while being a member of that lodge.

I will say, I did appreciate that he notes that the African Golden Jackal is in fact a wolf, but I digress.

Lastly, I just really did not vibe with the way the spells are written. They seem more fit to the young teen or preteen crowd. I could've seen myself getting more out of this when I was 13 in the early 00s because it does have some valuable information despite it's many flaws in my eyes. In modern day and age though newbies are much better off getting their information online than this book.

I find the flaws in it to be potentially dangerous to the crowd it would appeal to more; because as I noted before the rampant mixing of practices is not a good thing to do. Appropriation is unkind, whether done to be intentionally malicious or not (which I think it clearly isn't meant to be, but damage is damage). The flaws here could even potentially upset the God's, which is never a good or smart thing to do.

It also is very much written as his own exclusively personal practice and headcanon of the God's and Magick. The entire book is his own UPG, views, and mixed up practices that don't correspond with each other in reality or have any basis in how any of the practices he "borrows" from actually work.

To be honest, I was really disappointed because there are barely any books covering this subject at all. I was even more excited when I had read it includes Anpu in reviews, the end results being a huge letdown and feeling like I wasted my hard earned money. Now it is doomed to just gather dust in the back of my closet, I don't even wish to have it displayed on my altar bookshelf because it's embarrassing to have. I also don't feel right giving it away or donating it because the flaws I found in it, I do not want to condone it by being the middle man in someone's access to it. I do not want someone that is impressionable and new to practicing Magick internalizing things like appropriation or unethical practice mixing at my hand.

!! Looking to make more friends who are pagan/magick practicing werewolves (and wolves) !!

Please do reblog if you are one !!

And, if we find enough of each other, perhaps I’ll make a discord server for us if that is of interest??

Being a wolf therian and working with fenrir is so nice. The more I work with him the more connected to my wolf parts. It feels like I’m his pup and it brings me a lot of seratonin.
