Joseph Bearwalker Wilson
Joseph Bearwalker Wilson (1942–2004)〔 was a shaman and witch, founder of the 1734 Tradition of witchcraft, the Toteg Tribe, Metista, and a founding member of the Covenant of the Goddess.
Wilson was born December 11, 1942 and raised just inside the city limits of St. Johns in Clinton County, Michigan. He grew up with some Christian influence〔 chapters 1-3.〕 but developed an early interest in the occult, and in fully utilizing the powers of the mind, which he felt were barely tapped. During his early adult life he studied comparative religion, and encouraged such study in his teaching: "What they all have in common must be close to the truth". He died August 4, 2004 from complications of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and is recognized for his contributions to modern spiritual practice.
==Air Force career and spirituality==
Wilson joined the Air Force in September 1961, and in autumn 1962 he met another airman called Sean who introduced him to ritual practices designed to bring mental focus. Sean's wife also taught Wilson the use of roots and herbs to perform magic spells. Sean coached in a type of spiritual awareness which Joe felt was similar to, but not the same as, witchcraft.〔, chapter 5.〕 Sean also recommended readings to him, of which the most influential were ''The White Goddess'' by Robert Graves, ''The Magic Arts in Celtic Britain'' by Lewis Spence, and ''The Golden Bough'' by Sir James George Frazer, however Wilson found Sean's practical teachings more valuable than these written works.〔, chapter 4.〕
In 1964 Wilson started a four-page newsletter he called ''The Waxing Moon'' which was "a journal of the old religion" or "a witchcraft newsletter".〔 In 1965 an advertisement for Pentagram in ''The Waxing Moon'' put him in contact with Roy Bowers, alias 'Robert Cochrane', with whom he studied by mail until Bowers' death in 1966. Copies of their letters can be found online." Wilson founded the "1734 Tradition"〔The Reality of Things By Lee 'Red Oak' Johnson Page 145 paragraph three〕 late 1973 and 1974 when he compiled the Flags, Flax and Fodder booklet. He also participated in the formation of the Covenant of the Goddess, eventually leaving following their insistence that he adopt the Wiccan Rede.
