Nathan Hall

Nathan's new book, The Path of the Moonlit Hedge, is available to order from Llewellyn books and at your favorite bookstores. Nathan makes his home in South Florida where he lives with his wife and son. He grew up without any real religious background but always felt connected with the spirits of the land. Because of this connection he has always felt a strong kinship with environmental causes and the primacy of nature over humanity’s exploitation of it. Nathan has followed many paths, including ceremonial magick, heathen, Druidic and witchcraft traditions. You can find more of his writing at his website, Moonlit Hedge (moonlithedge.com).
