The Primal Craft Grimoires

About

My name is Mark Alan Smith.

As a Child of Hecate I have heard Her call since my early years – although I did not, at those times, fully understand my role in this incarnation (one I now know to have fulfilled, in service to Hecate, lifetime after lifetime). Early childhood years were guided by Familiars. The Path of Re-Awakening is one upon which a young person must be led with great care – lest the mind become overwhelmed.

At 12 years of age, I was already heavily involved in evocation and possession work. At age 14, I taught ritual to small groups – illuminating the Path of Hecate’s Primal Witchflame Arte. In later years, as a Professional Soldier, my practice remained steadfast – although perhaps more hidden.

I still explored the paths of possession, healing, the intuitive artes and, if necessary, hexes and charms.

The Path of Evolution was intertwined with the Path of Self Discovery and the disclosure and Revelation of past life incarnations – all undertaken in Service of the Dark Witch Queen.

In later life, beyond the Crossing of the Abyss in the now infamous Primal Craft Phoenix Rite, I was led to Southern Spain. At this time, the communion at the Heart of the Crown Prince’s Throne and passage through the Vortices of the Backward Atlantean Way had intensified to what can be only described as a crescendo of Knowledge and Understanding. With the restoration of the Mother Temple of Four Pillars of Fire and the initiation of various powerful and devoted souls – such as our beloved Temple High Priestess and the Temple Apprentice, who walks between the worlds – Hecate implemented the return of the Primal Craft: The Atlantean Witchflame Current.
