The Threads That Bind Us

Gerald Gardner's Book of Shadows delineates eight different methods of creating magick. The seventh path, "the Scourge" refers specifically to a flogger used in British Traditional Witchcraft. When contrasted with "the Kiss," it is a symbol of the pain and suffering of life. Scourging has been used in many different religious traditions to achieve enlightenment, as have symbolic death and rebirth rituals, which may come from ancient shamanic initiations and Mystery traditions. This video briefly covers as many of these dark mysteries as possible, including initiation, pain, confronting the Shadow Self, the Monomyth, Croning, near death experiences, and death itself. http://sablearadia.webs.com
