<p>From the back cover: PAGAN MAGICK TRANSFORMED Nosce te Ipsum In Volume One we established or reestablished -- the original western system of the interior stars which had been superseded in the Victorian era by the eastern tantric laya yoga arrangement favored by Theosophists. Recalling that Solomon's muse was the Goddess Astarte, we applied Her and the rest of Her ancient Canaanite pantheon to the spheres of our straight-line chakra ladder. Now in volume two we will evolve this neo-mythical system into a Renaissance and Rosicrucian analog. The ancient Canaanite gods and goddesses will be replaced (or rather joined) by the angels and planetary spirits of western magick and the hermetic qabalah. This transformation is accomplished by Jesus Christ and his Lady Mary Magdalene following their sacred marriage in Tiphareth, which is allegorically and alchemically recounted in The Chemical Wedding of Christian Rosenkreutz. And replicated in a Rosicrucian yoga ritual using the hitherto secret Soul Travel Boat. All of this is substantiated by ancient documents and scripture. Jesus and Mary are the earthly representatives of Father El and Mother Asherat, the original supreme deities of ancient Canaan and Israel. Perhaps the most important revelation in this book is that Jesus' father-in-heaven is El, the original most high god of the Bible, not Jehovah. Using the latest biblical research Fraters Solomon and Thabion reveal that Jesus really was the King of the Jews and was in fact married to Mary Magdalene. Drawing upon the mysterious Naassene document they reveal how Jesus was the last of a series of pagan dying gods and that his casting out of Mary's demons was the purification of her chakras as also described in the allegorical Gnostic Christian Joseph and Aseneth. Their sacred marriage was fictionalized in the last of the Renaissance Rosicrucian documents The Chemical Wedding of Christian Rosenkreuz. Frater Thabion summarizes and interprets this ancient fantasy novel revealing that it was inspired by The Hypnerotomachia of Francesco Colonna and that the seven days of the wedding are in fact the seven houses of Christian Rosenkreuz's natal horoscope. Analyzing the medieval epic Parzival by Wolfram von Eschenbach, Thabion concludes that the Holy Grail was in fact a shewstone (scrying stone) that revealed the Holy Guardian Angels of those who were called to the Grail Castle. Persian and Harranian-Sabian sources are called upon to validate this revelation. It is also established that Parzival's half-brother, grandmother and original mentor were hermetic Sabians, who could be called Saracens but not Muslims. The sorceress Cundrie also confirms our restored Chakra arrangement in a poem blessing Parzival when he finally becomes the Grail King. As a last restoration of forgotten hermetic influence Thabion presents an argument that the original version of The Sepher Yetzirah was probably written in Greek and later translated into Hebrew although he concedes that there may have been an ancient version on clay tablets in cuneiform. This book reveals the great secrets behind the western mysteries. It restores the true balance of male and female divinity in the holy family and in the human family. In the true Rosicrucian spirit it offers a healing formula of personal salvation. Tu es Deus et Dea Frater Thabion (Poke Runyon)</p>
