Christopher is a Witch, teacher, writer and healing practitioner. His practice draws upon the foundation of both modern and traditional Witchcraft blended with the wisdom of mystical traditions from across the globe as a practitioner and teacher of shamanism, tarot, Reiki healing, herbalism, astrology and Qabalah.
He is the founder of the Temple of Witchcraft tradition and system of magickal training based upon the material of his books and classes. He is an ordained minister primarily serving the New Hampshire and Massachusetts pagan and metaphysical communities through public rituals, private counsel and teaching, though he travels extensively teaching throughout the United States.
His newest book, The Casting of Spells, was just nominated for a prestigious COVR Award — an award presented annually in the ‘Mind-Body-Spirit’ product industry by the Coalition of Visionary Resources and when you get a chance to read it, you’ll see why!

Traditions across the world honor and recognize the sanctified dead; not just the ancestors of flesh and blood we knew in life, but the ancestors of our spiritual traditions who died in a state of alignment and union with the divine. Known as Bodhisattvas, Saints, Ascended Masters, Secret Chiefs, and Inner Plane Adepts in other traditions, witches know our ancestors as the Hidden Company or The Mighty Dead. In truth, they are the guiding principles of our modern tradition, as inner world priests and priestesses to the gods. They consist of our elders in the modern and ancient world, united in the ecstatic dance of the Witch’s Sabbat. Learn to understand the nature of the Mighty Dead and how to work directly with them for your own healing and evolution and in your work in the worlds of flesh and spirit. Work with ancestral altars, oracular skulls, and spiritual merging. Learn to find guides, teachers, healers, and partners within the order of the Mighty Dead.
