The Candle and the Crossroads: A Book of Appalachian Conjure and Southern Root Work

Explore authentic Appalachian conjure and root work.

If you've ever been curious about the mystical traditions rooted deep within the Appalachians, "The Candle and the Crossroads" could be a fascinating journey for you. Orion Foxwood offers a sincere window into the soulful practices of Southern magic, including spirit sight and conjuring. It's more than a peek into regional folklore; it's an invitation to connect with a rich, often underrepresented, spiritual heritage.

The Candle and the Crossroads shows how to create magic in today’s world with the old ways and traditions of Appalachia.
