CALL OF THE OLD GODS

In this reflective and richly personal work, scholar and Pagan practitioner Christopher McIntosh shares his journey into modern paganism and the re-enchantment of everyday life. Blending memoir with spiritual insight, he explores esoteric practices like Stav, sacred gardening, breath work and seasonal rituals, while recounting influential encounters with key figures in the occult renaissance. With an emphasis on deep connection to the land—the often-forgotten “fifth centre”—McIntosh reveals how nature, ritual and embodied experience can lead us to a more grounded, magical and fulfilled spiritual path.
