Apple Branch Press

As a Dianic High Priestess, ordained by Z Budapest, I created From the Branch Priestess Mentoring as an outreach program for those who wish to study Dianic Witchcraft within the teachings of the Apple Branch Tradition. We use the Sacred Tree Alphabet as a model of continuity of the energies of both the lunar and solar year combined with a great deal of practical experience in all areas of service to The Goddess.

Our approach to our magic is to remove the focus from the cerebral ~ to bring the energy down into the body ~ thereby removing barriers and limits to personal ecstasy and fulfillment. This is not always an easy approach, but in the long run becomes a full experience of the whole self, embodying all of our personal magic into an ecstatic experience.

Within the Apple Branch we invite you to work with "the divine madness of the shaman." We call you to journey to the Otherworld to bring back wisdom for application in your life and in the lives of others. Apple represents the spiritual warrior who fears not to travel beyond the mortal realm to face death, sacrifice, and hardship, in order to benefit his or her tribe. The apple branch represents shelter and protection on these intense shamanic journeys. Apple invites you to dare to be different in order to discover your own truth. The apple offers protection, strength, comfort, and respite for your ordeal.

From the Branch ~ A Primer in Dianic Witchcraft has been designed for one just coming into relationship with the Goddess. It is a Year and a Day study guide with all the basic ingredients of basic practice combined with in-depth material on the Ogham and the Sacred Trees. I invite you to discover Her Mysteries.
