“The real Mystery is only uncovered by the individual, and cannot be told, but only pointed to.”
~Robert Cochrane
Robert Cochrane – a name synonymous with Traditional Craft – is perhaps one of its most controversial figures of the 20th century. Scores of articles, books, blogs and webpages claim much in his name, each a pastiche of the other, and though they are a testament to his popularity, they offer little substance regarding his work, and even less in terms of factual information. Addressing this plethora of misinformation and lack, this book, Tubelo’s Forge, composed by Shani Oates — the Maid and Matriarch of the Clan of Tubal Cain — brings much needed light and clarity to the work initiated by this most profound yet perplexing pellar and mystic of the Craft.

Description
Archival transcript material provides the foundation of Cochrane’s early works constructed as a gramarye supplemented with insights and intimate knowledge of the Clan from within its discreet conclave. Driven by an insatiable thirst for Wisdom, Cochrane’s ruthless pursuit of Truth led him to explore all aspects of the Craft. This book reveals those early forays and formative experiences that molded Cochrane’s articulation of the Craft and his vision for the Clan he founded to demonstrate it as a lived tradition.
Tubelo’s Forge is an accessible work of immense value to those interested in Cochrane’s approach to the Craft, whether as a newcomer to his work, or a seasoned follower of his art. Capturing a significant moment of history, this unique body of work offers, for the first time, a working model as a platform for understanding the origins of the Clan of Tubal Cain, but most importantly, its evolution since, both in his time, and in continuance, through the legacy of the Clan in accordance with the tenets he prescribed for it.
Following the popular format of Tubelo’s Green Fire by Shani Oates, and Witchcraft: A Tradition Renewed by Evan John Jones and Doreen Valiente, Tubelo’s Forge incorporates information relating to the Cosmology, Mythos and Ethos of the Clan, with writings that explore the working Compass, the Working Tools, Induction, Transmission, Tutelary Spirits, the Egregore, The Old Covenant, the Winds, Castles of the Mind and Compass, and Cochrane’s views on the use of Entheogens.
As a practical guide, Cochrane’s desire to combine all aspects mythical and mystical shine through these early works and Seasonal Rites that continue to inspire and intrigue. Though focussed heavily upon the practical elements of a working tradition, Tubelo’s Forge is substantially supplemented with Cochrane’s cerebral philosophy, being inexorably entwined, it could not be otherwise. Original sketches gathered from works relating to this period are sensitively recreated while other artworks offer inspired glimpses into his visionary world; words and images combine in this incredible tome to share a novel perspective on the Clan’s sacred mysteries.
