Its principal aim is the exaltation of the paradoxical force of Opposition —an essential dynamic patterning of Sabbatic Witchcraft— which animates the Art of Magic itself. This aphoristic grimoire deepens the linkage of the Current of Opposition to Sabbatic Craft philosophy, specifically its mystical and ‘poetic prose’ traditions. Birthed from the atemporal strata of the void-vessel of the Circle, the book is further empowered with elemental automata drawn by the Author, and an afterword written by Soror Illithiya Shemhiya and Frater Akarais Hran-Issiyah of the Cultus Sabbati.\u003cbr\u003e+\u003cbr\u003eThe eternal Sabbat of the Witches contains within it both the Lawful and Unlawful. It is their recursive dance, through the Sorcerous Art, that animates the Current of Opposition. The comingling of Flesh with Ghost, Light with Darkness, Known and Unknown, Union and Disintegration, liberates the primordial power of the witch, known in the Sabbatic Tradition as Crooked Path Sorcery.
