The Ice Veil

The Ice Veil: Mystical Beasts of January's Shadows is an occult folklore exploration of the hidden forces believed to emerge during winter's deepest threshold. Across cultures, January has long been regarded as a liminal period-when silence thickens, boundaries thin, and unseen guardians step closer to the surface of the world.

This book documents the beings said to inhabit frozen forests, open tundra, glaciers, and storm-bound passes: Shadow Wolves that judge awareness and intent, icebound spirits formed from unfinished journeys, and glacial guardians that respond to imbalance beneath the ice. Drawing from preserved folklore patterns, symbolic interpretations, and survival-based myth traditions, The Ice Veil presents these entities not as fiction, but as cultural and occult archetypes encoded to protect human life.

Rather than storytelling, each chapter functions as a folkloric field guide-detailing the nature of each entity, its symbolic wisdom, traditional methods of appeasement, and the behaviors believed to prevent harm. The result is a rare convergence of esoteric study, seasonal mythology, and ancestral survival knowledge.

The Ice Veil is essential reading for those drawn to occult folklore, winter mysticism, liminal studies, and the ancient belief that cold does not empty the world-it reveals it.
