The Circle, Cubed: Erecting the Temple in Four Dimensions

The Circle, Cubed is an instruction manual for those proficient in erecting the temple rites, such as "Casting the Circle" or "Casting a Pentagram," who desire to go deeper in their understanding. Rather than rehashing the same three temple rites used by most Wiccans, Kaatryn MacMorgan-Douglas explains what the functions of the various pieces of the rite are, and how those pieces work as a coherent whole. The author also explores earlier and lesser-used temple techniques, as well as modern techniques, in part at frustration at the over-reliance of the Wiccan community on the elemental tetragram circle, a rite that many Wiccans are taught as if it is the sole temple rite, not one of dozens. The author encourages Wiccans to use the material herein to craft their own, personalized temple rite, an essential part of any Wiccan's personal practice. This exclusive edition also features bonus material including "The Ritual of the Compass Rose."
