Andreah Vitimus and Jason M. Colwell welcome Frater Ashen Chassan to the show!
Frater Ashen Chassan: I am a practicing occultist and grimoiric traditionalist who has been involved in traditional forms of Western ceremonial magic for over fourteen years. My passions center on closely reproducing experiments from the Solomonic magical texts and judging their effectiveness for myself. The approach I take to such undertakings is a serious immersion and integration of traditional forms of magical ritual and spirit communication. My aim is to recreate experiments from magical texts as closely as I am able before altering any content. I practice on a continual basis and my comprehensions are always evolving. Beyond my traditional grimoric pursuits, I involve myself in a multitude of esoteric arts and methods to better understand spiritual phenomena which has occurred in my life since a young age.

Jo-Ann Byers-Mierzwicki
In 1979 Jo-Ann began learning her family’s magickal tradition of mysticism and witchcraft through numerous long distance phone calls to her great aunt in England, until the aunt passed away in 2002.
After practicing her family’s tradition as a solitary for many years, but wanting more, she was initiated and coven trained in 2001 through The Wiccan Order of Bast. She continued her training and in 2006 received the Priesthood degree through The Hermetic Order of the Wiccan Mysteries. Both of these coven lineages are through the Druidic Craft of the Wise of America (DCWA) based out of Eye of the Cat in Long Beach, California, which in turn came from the Druidic Craft of the Wise (DCW) in England.
Jo-Ann has been co-facilitating all of Tony’s workshops in Australia and the United States since 2004. In February 2010 she began working with Pendraig Publishing as their Interior Layout and Design / Cover Design and Graphic Artist. You can view her portfolio on her website JB Graphic Art Designs.
