Rollin George Bennien (known as “Rod”) entered the world of the occult in 1967. He was born March 25, 1942 (Aries) and passed April 27, 2022, a few days before the May Eve Sabbat. He was known to the occult world by his pen-name Tarostar, and wrote a number of books with some of them published for the world to read and also private manuscripts for the tradition. The tradition of Wicca that he taught came down through June Day-Zabawsky (known in occult circles by her pen-name Charmaine Dey) and Sybil Leek.

Like any Occultist, you collect and utilize a number of tools along the journey. We wanted to share with our readers a few photos of his occult tools from his collection for historical purposes and study. We keep them clean and dry as we use these now in ritual. Being a practical occultist, he would have appreciated his items being put to use in the tradition that meant so much to him. Blessed Be!
