Objects, spirits, and ritual craft

Matthew Venus’s guide brings together effigy-making and practical ritual preparations within a framework of animism and spirit work. It covers the creation of poppets, effigies, and spirit houses as vessels, alongside instructions and ingredients for ritual oils, incenses, washes, and smokes. The book’s subject matter links hands-on crafting with questions of how practitioners engage with spirits and magical power, giving its treatment both a material and devotional dimension. Its scope is specifically oriented toward practitioners of the Arte, while also addressing witchcraft, magic, and spirit work more broadly.
