Companion for the Apprentice Wizard

"I can't think of a better, more qualified person to write a Handbook for Apprentice Wizards. Oberon is a Wizard!"

—Raymond Buckland

Buckland's Complete Book of Witchcraft

We are pleased to announce the upcoming release of the companion volume to Oberon Zell-Ravenheart's Grimoire for the Apprentice Wizard—Companion for the Apprentice Wizard. This new work consists not so much of informational lessons and teachings, as with the Grimoire, but rather focuses on practical exercises derived from them to develop psychic skills, plus instructions and templates for many projects to make and do. If you've wanted hands-on magickal training this is the book you've been waiting for.

Chapters are based on the sixteen Departments of Oberon's Grey School of Wizardry:

Wizardry, Magickal Practice, Nature Studies, Metapsychics, Healing, Wortcunning, Divination, Alchemy, Conjury, Lifeways, Beast Mastery, Mathemagicks, Cosmology, Ceremonial Magick, Lore, and Dark Arts

Inside you will find Materials and exercises from the vaults of the Grey School, and instruction by many of the faculty as well as from the headmaster himself, Oberon Zell-Ravenheart.

Step-by-step instructions are provided for:
