Master the craft with step-by-step guidance, honing your skills from basic sigil creation to weaving complex glyph arrays for long-term aspirations. Delve into the fusion of quantum mechanics, Kabbalistic teachings, and transpersonal psychology, transcending the traditional boundaries of sigilcraft. Uncover advanced activation techniques, secrets to embedding sigils in art and music, and methods for crafting sigils in digital and dream states. Navigate inner spaces with psychonautic sigils or delve into the intricacies of fractal sigils and alternate realities. This comprehensive guide delves into the mysteries of: · Giants of the Wild: Explore the dense forests where Bigfoot and Sasquatch are said to roam, and uncover the legends of the Yeti high in the Himalayas. · Bloodsuckers and Beasts: Learn about the fearsome Chupacabra, the eerie Moth man, and other cryptids that strike fear into the hearts of locals and livestock alike. · Shape-Shifters and Shadow Creatures: Discover the dark tales of werewolves, skin walkers, and shadow people—creatures that challenge our understanding of reality and identity. Whilst most enjoy the books a lot of them are fans of Bigfoot but don’t have any interest in other cryptids so I have taken all the Bigfoot Encounters from the cryptid encounters series and put them here into one book, plus there is bonus never before released encounters.
