Re: [Thaumatology] Real world magical traditions

It's the approach taken in Cabal, which I like, but I get that it's not what Icelander is looking for. My primary source is the Torah, which goes into great detail on the matter. The practice has come in and out of vogue with various sects of Judaism through the centuries, but it's still an important theological point. The Kosher preparation of animals involves ritual slaughter, i.e. a form of sacrifice. But my core point was not that any Jewish sects currently practice it (I don't know if they do), but that it's been an important part of the religion for all of its (written) history, and therefor could quite plausibly show up in an esoteric practice.
