The Once Unknown Familiar

First published in 1994, The Once Unknown Familiar explores the mysterious relationship between human beings and the animal world through folklore, magical tradition, ritual, and direct experience. Moving beyond the familiar image of the Witch's animal companion, Timothy Roderick explores ways of connecting with the animal spirit found in magical and spiritual practices across the globe.
Drawing from Old European traditions, Timothy explores drumming, dance, animal fetiches, charms, incantations, shapeshifting, and ritual methods for entering the animal realm and awakening its transformative power. The original work is brought to life for a new generation with fresh commentary, historical context, and reflections that draw from more than thirty years of experience.
Strange, dark, and steeped in tradition, The Once Unknown Familiar returns as an invitation to enter again into the old world where the human and animal are not so far apart.
