Find and hone the innate feral spirit within and discover your own inner animal self.
Rewild yourself. Return to an ancient, deeper way of being. Reconnect with the primordial, animistic world of the spirits and the powers of nature that have been patiently waiting for you to return. Once you become open to this reality, the spirits of nature will welcome you, bond with you, and help you.
In Feral Magick: Unleash Your Inner Animal Self, author Denny Sargent gives readers the tools they need to locate and work with their inner animal as well as with sacred deities and personal animal spirits. Through spells, rituals, and meditations, as well as shapeshifting and trance states, readers will learn how to tap into their natural instinct, intuition, and insight.
Practicing feral magick will lead you to form deeper intuitive bonds with your animal allies and to find the inherent power you already possess. The operating principles of intuitive spiritual animistic practices will enable you to better acknowledge and engage with all sorts of woodland spirits and will remind you that you, too, are a spirit of nature.
“At a time when so many of us feel that we are disconnected from the rest of Nature, Feral Magick offers a way of rewilding ourselves in body and spirit. By opening ourselves to an animistic worldview, we are invited to return to who and what we once were—and never really ceased to be.”
—Lupa, creator of The Tarot of Bones deck and book
“Was he raised by wolves? Author Denny Sargent reminds us in Feral Magick that a magician needs to nourish and honor their wild side. We magicians are human, but we are also animal, our most positive side. Strip away restrictive conditions, be ‘unfettered, nature-orientated, free of captivity and, most of all, wild.’ This type of spirited, free-form shamanism must become part of our basic skill set. This book represents the spirit of the old Neopagan mantra: ‘be wild, be free, be true to me.’ This, according to the author, is the way of all natural Pagans, and what he promulgates and teaches in this lovely book.”
—Mogg Morgan, publisher of Mandrake of Oxford
“A writer, teacher, and practitioner of esoteric traditions since the seventies, Denny Sargent conveys his scholarship and experience through his passion for animism and wildness. Feral Magick is a book that will awaken your primal self and help you reclaim your place in nature; it’s a reminder that we are feral, a howling call from the bowels of freedom itself.”
—André Consciência, author of A Guide to the Elementals and other books
“Feral Magick is a book that does not simply inform—it transforms. It stirs something ancient within the bones and awakens a primal fire in the very blood of our veins. It reminds us that we were never meant to be tame, that the spirits of the land are still calling, waiting for us to remember. This is a book for the seekers of deep nature, for the wanderers of the twilight places, for those who feel the pull of something wild and ineffable just beyond the edges of perception. Denny Sargent has given us more than a book—he has given us a key.”
—Gregory Peters, author of Yogini Magic and New Aeon Tantra
“Feral Magick is a call to unshackle the domesticated mind and awaken the wild intelligence within. Denny Sargent weaves a path of initiation that is as inevitable as it is transformational—reminding us that true power is not taken but embodied. Read it and remember what you were before the world told you otherwise.”
—Entelecheia, author of Erotic Liberation and The Adventures of a God“Denny Sargent’s Feral Magick might just be the most important book you read this year. As our present human society continues to be subsumed into the more dystopian developments of its ever-unfurling technocracy, Feral Magick offers a complete course in liberation from artifice and oppression, connecting the reader, through a series of practical exercises, to a world more thrilling, expansive and teeming with life and soul than could be guessed.”
—Kyle Fite, artist and author of Hoodoo Pilot, Advent of the Space Master, and Beyond the Golden Omen
“Feral Magick is an invitation to freedom. It is a call, not to ‘grow up’ but to ‘grow out,’ to open to all of the life that surrounds us with the senses of a child. To experience our ‘primal spirit’ radiating as pure love and a greatness of heart.”
—Dr. Louie Martinié, cofounder of Black Moon Publishing
