American Folkloric Witchcraft

From EverybodyWiki Bios & Wiki



American Folkloric Witchcraft is a witchcraft tradition within the Cochrane's Craft founded by Laurelei Black and Glaux. The tradition is a Qayninite line, revering Tubal Qayn as the Witchfather and founder of witchblood. The Tradition also reveres the White and Black Goddesses, often referred to by the names of Hulda and Kolyo respectively, though these are considered aspects of an underlying essence, such that man goddesses can be considered a white or black goddess figure. This is not to adamantly say, that all goddesses are the same goddess, rather that there are expresses of pathos, patterns and archetypes which play out in the nature and lives of gods and [wo]men. Likewise Qayn is known as a red god figure, these being the three colors of the tradition.

The Compass[edit]

Coming out of Traditional Cochrane-Craft, the traditions frame-rite is that of casting compass, not the circle as is common in modern witchcraft and traditional Stregan practices. Compasses focus more on the directions, drawing the currents of the land to a central point rather than primarily focusing on rotation quarter to quarter. It empowers a central axis around which three worlds spin, pertaining more to a central crossroads than an outward barrier and in-between. Circles are not considered wrong, they are just not the default praxis in this tradition. Each does give much insight into the mechanics of the other.

Luciferian Current[edit]

Being Qayninite, the tradition is also part of the Luciferian current, working with Azazel, the watchers and Luciferian imagery.
