The Freshwater Testament: A Grimoire of Rivers and Wells

The rivers remember. The wells whisper. The lakes mirror more than the sky.

With The Freshwater Testament, I have turned the cycle of grimoires inland — away from salt and blackwater, toward the rivers that carve valleys, the springs that rise from stone, and the wells that open like throats into the underworld.

This book is filled not with symbols alone, but with practical rites:

Pocket charms made from reeds, stones, moss, and dew.

Rituals of safe crossing, purification, and release.

Extended workings to call upon floods, waterfalls, and river guardians.

Pilgrimage and vigil practices to unite the practitioner with living waters.

The Testaments have always been about covenant — between practitioner and element, body and land. This third volume gathers the voices of inland waters and places them in your hands. It is a book meant to be practiced at the bank, the spring, the cistern, and the hidden pool.

Freshwater is renewal, but also peril. It heals and drowns in the same breath. To work with it is to remember that every sip, every drop, is a gift and a warning.

You can find The Freshwater Testament: A Grimoire of Rivers and Wells now in both Kindle and paperback editions. Carry it to the river’s edge. Dip its pages in mist. Let the waters speak back to you.
