Magic & the Occult

21st Century Mage, by Jason A. Newcomb

In "21st Century Mage", Jason Newcomb offers a hip, up to date approach for attaining what Aleister Crowley termed the "Knowledge and Conversation of Your Holy Guardian Angel", a concept based on the ancient practices in the 15th century text, "The Book Of The Sacred Magic Of Abramelin The Mage". Newcomb defines this mysterious idea as "the marriage of your human being with your divine self" or a way of connecting to your source of power, creativity and genius. A self professed "skeptical mystic" Newcomb clarifies and refines the diverse assortment of rituals in "The Abramelin" into a concise, six month plan of action, the "Abramelin Operation". This simple process is based on a course of daily prayer and ritual that can be custom fit to your own spirituality and lifestyle. Apply your current practice or integrate it with yoga, ceremonial magic, astral travel, Zen and even sex. Connect with your Holy Guardian Angel and awaken your potential for greater happiness, accomplishment and wisdom. Paperback, 162 pages. Also has a line of excellent hypnosis tapes.

Sepher Rezial Hemelach, by Steve Savedow

This is the long-awaited, first English edition of this famous magical text -- a translation from the ancient Hebrew in the rare & complete 1701 Amsterdam edition. According to Hebrew legend, the book was presented to Adam in the Garden of Eden, given by the hand of God, & delivered by the angel Rezial. The myth thus suggests that this is the first book ever written, & is of direct, divine provenance. A diverse compendium of ancient Hebrew magical lore, this book was quite possibly the original source for later traditional literature on angelic hierarchy, astrology, Qabalah, & Gematria. It could also be a primary source for many magic & qabalistic books of the Middle Ages. This is a compilation of five books: "The Book of the Vestment," "The Book of the Great Rezial," "The Holy Names," "The Book of the Mysteries," & "The Book of the Signs of the Zodiac." It includes explanatory text on the holy names of God, the divisions of Heaven & Hell, the names & hierarchy of the angels & spirits, as well as symbolic interpretations of both the Book of Genesis & Sepher Yetzirah. It also includes material on astronomy, astrology, gematria, & various magical talismans, most notably those used for protection during childbirth. In his introduction, Steve Savedow details the history, bibliographical citations, & lineage of this famous work.

The Key of Solomon the King, trans. by MacGregor-Mathers

The Key of Solomon is the most famous, or infamous, of magical textbooks. Although the grimoire is of unknown origin, MacGregor Mathers, who prepared this edition from seven manuscripts in the British Museum, believes it was written by King Solomon. The King instructs his disciples in incantations that summon and master the spirits. The process of summoning these beings illustrates the extraordinary complexity of Western ritual magic - choosing a time and place; preliminary prayers; fasting, fumigations, and preparations; as well as the need for magical equipment, robes, and trappings. Included in this edition is a new foreword by R.A. Gilbert, esoteric scholar and antiquarian bookseller. Gilbert highlights the importance of the Key as a primary source for those interested in Western ritual magic, as well as the historical background and contemporary magical contexts of MacGregor Mather's editorial work and commentary.

The Magus, by Francis Barrett

When first published in 1801, The Magus presented a complete study in the practice of ritual magic. It was compiled by Barrett from many different occult sources, such as Agrippa's work, the Heptameron, and various manuscripts of The Key of Solomon in response to renewed public interest in magic and the ancient, classic texts. As such it was the first readily accessible English translation, or republication, of rare, long out-of-print works, and was fundamental for many exploring the Western magic tradition at the dawn of the Victorian Occult Revival. The Magus is actually separated into three books combined in one volume; this facsimile is a photo-reproduction of all three books from the first edition. The five color plates have been reproduced from the originals using modern methods for color accuracy not achieved in previous reprints.

The Mystical Qabalah, by Dion Fortune

Remains a classic in its clarity linking the broad elements of Jewish traditional thought - probably going back to the Babylonian captivity, and beyond. With both eastern and western philosophy, and later Christian insights. Dion Fortune was one of the first adepts to bring this "secret tradition" to a wider audience some before her often only added to the overall mystery by elaborating on obscurity, but her account is simple, clear and comprehensive. The mystical qabalah works in a profoundly psychological way, its lessons for the individual are invaluable and this book is a must for all who feel drawn to know themselves better, so that their inner and outer worlds may be one. This revised edition includes an additional chapter of Fortunes original writing, and editorial update for contemporary readers and a foldout with tree of life diagrams to facilitate study of the text.

The Secret King: Karl Maria Wiligut, trans. by Stephen Flowers

Here are the real documents of Nazi Occultism. There is much speculation about the "occult roots" of National Socialism, yet very little concrete documentation has ever been translated into English -- until now. This book, ten years in the making, contains the collected occult writings of Karl Maria Wiligut, the runic initiate & shadowy "Secret King" of Germany. His works were originally published in the rare ariosophical journals "Hag All All Hag" and "Hagal." Heinrich Himmler -- the leader of the SS & possibly the most powerful figure in the Third Reich -- commissioned Wiligut to write private reports on Runes, secret Germanic traditions, & prehistory. It was through this position of influence that Wiligut came to be known after his death as "Himmler?s Rasputin." Adeptly translated by Germanic history expert Dr. Stephen E. Flowers, these writings allow a glimpse into the strange magical world that enchanted high-ranking officials of the most notorious political state of the 20th century. For anyone fascinated about the role occultism played in the Third Reich, here is the evidence. Never before have source documents of this nature been made available to the English-speaking world! 155 pages.

The Woman's Dictionary of Symbols and Sacred Objects, by Barbara Walker

Symbolism is a slippery subject. Any one symbol may have hundreds of interpretations, according to the differing beliefs of people who have interpreted it. So readily & intensely do human beings respond to symbols that it is hardly a surprise to find symbols deified & divinized in every human culture. Ultimately, symbolism boils down to human needs & desires. It is especially important for women to learn more about the language of symbols, because many common religious symbols were stolen from ancient woman-centered systems & reinterpreted in the contexts of patriarchy. While it is true that symbols are whatever one cares to make of them, it is also true that Western civilization?s symbolism has gone in directions that ignore or belittle the female principle. The author compiled this book with the intent of supplying women with time-honored female symbols that are more appropriate for contemplation by women seeking contact with their own inner essence. Another intent was to increase awareness of symbols generally. To gain clearer ideas of what certain visual stimuli meant to our ancestors is to learn a little more about our own symbol systems & personal responses to what we see. And that can be a useful kind of learning for anyone. This fascinating guide to the history & mythology of female related symbols features unique organization by shape of symbol or type of sacred object; 21 different sections, including Round & Oval Motifs, Sacred Objects, Secular-Sacred Objects, Rituals, Deities? Signs, Supernaturals, Body Parts, Nature, Birds, Plants, Minerals, Stones & Shells, & more; introductory essays for each section; 753 entries & 636 illustrations; an alphabetical index for easy reference. Softcover, 563 pgs.
