Andrew Chumbley: ONE THE GRIMOIRE OF THE GOLDEN TOAD
2nd. 2025 80pp Xoanon hardback in dustwrapper. Midnight blue boards. NEW.
Ltd. ed. 777 copies. First published in the year 2000, this unique text was the first grimoire to treat specifically, and from personal account, the Traditional East Anglian ritual called 'The Waters of the Moon,' the solitary initiation of the so-called 'Toad-witch'. The textualisation of this magical process was, in this unique instance, undertaken as an extension of the ritual itself - a perfection of its cycle of arcana to a point of individual crystallisation. The book contains a précis of the ancient Toad-Bone ritual, an account of the author's own experience with the rite, and an exposition of its governing spirits and arcana via Sabatraxas, the Toad-Devil. Through pilgrimage, sign, vision and oneiric revelation, One circumscribes the mystery of the Current of the Unmanifest, and shadows forth its points of alignment with the Sabbatic Tradition. This new edition features an Afterword by Frater A.H.I. and Soror I.S., the present Magister and Magistra of the Cultus Sabbati.
