Hardbound Book &amp; Altar Icon Card Deck. Landscape quarto and deck of 55 cards. 212pp. Illustrated paper covered boards. This illustrated and "illuminated" hardback opens with a detailed historical resume of magical and esoteric thought before presenting the reader with three complete grimoires. From the publisher: "this superbly produced book contains extensive text by Peter J Carroll and over 50 large full colour illustrations from Matt Kaybryn, which are represented in the accompanying deck. Carroll's text begins with a historical resumé of magical and esoteric thought before moving on to present the reader with three complete grimoires. The first grimoire of Elemental magic deals with modern practical magical techniques and the classical and modern interpretations of the traditional elemental symbolism. The second grimoire of Planetary magic deals with the Pagan and Neo-Pagan-magical archetypes or 'god-forms', their contemporary roles in the human condition, and how the magician can access them for their inspiration and to borrow their abilities. The third grimoire of Stellar magic deals with the 'Elder Gods', those foci of awesome and dangerous extraterrestrial knowledge and power that await us in the vast deep reaches of the cosmos. This grimoire constitutes the latest upgrade to the ever evolving Necronomicon. Complementing and supporting the grimoires, further chapters deal with the history of symbolism, the creation and/ or the evolution of gods and goddesses, and the physics of parapsychology and extraterrestrial communication. All in all this book contains enough to keep any wizard, magician, esotericist or natural philosopher entranced and busy for quite quite some time to come." Accompanied by oversized deck of 55 cards, called a "Cartomagical tool for the 21st century, the Deck presents 54 Altar Icons spanning the three Spheres of Elements, Bi-Planets and Stellar god-forms.

Magician, Poet and Seer, Victor Neuburg  was the disciple of Aleister Crowley  and literary godfather of Dylan Thomas.     Really two books in one. Firstly a record of one man's extraordinary journey to magical  enlightenment. Secondly the story of the Aleister Crowley, the magus who summoned  Neuburg to join him in the quest. The book opens with the author's entry into the group  of young poets including Dylan Thomas and Pamela Hansford Johnson.   They gather around Victor Neuburg in  1935 when he is poetry editor of the Sunday Referee.   Gradually the author becomes aware of his strange and sinister past,  in which  Neuburg was associated in magic with Aleister Crowley.  Neuburg had been  Crowley's partner in magical rituals in the desert and in rites even more dangerous and controversial.  The author sought out the truth behind the rumours and with her intuitive understanding of deeper things presents a sympathetic and compelling biography.  'Vicky encouraged me as no one else has done,' Dylan Thomas declared on hearing  of Neuburg's death. 'He possessed many kinds of genius, and not the least was his genius  for drawing to himself, by his wisdom, graveness, great humour and innocence, a feeling  of trust and love, that won't ever be forgotten.' ' . . . there was a whiff  of sulphur abroad, and all of us would have liked to know  the truth of the Aleister Crowley's legends, the truth of the witch-like baroness  called Cremers, the abandonment of Neuburg in the desert.' - Pamela Hansford Johnson

The Magical Dilemma of Victor Neuburg - Revised

Fuller, Jean

Emily Dimmock was born in Standon, Hertfordshire. She followed the fate of so many poor working class girls, by working as a domestic servant, and then becoming a prostitute in London's Kings Cross. Witnesses last saw Emily alive on the evening of September 11th 1907. On the morning of September 12th, 1907, the body of Emily Dimmock was found in her rented rooms in Camden Town, London. The murderer has never been identified. This is the story of the victim; along with an account of the times in which she lived, and the circumstances surrounding her death. Is this another crime of the imagination? Recent books have seen parallels between The Camden Town Murder, the Whitechapel killings of Jack the Ripper, and The Peasenhall Mystery of 1902. This is also a social history and an account of the human condition of the people living in the Victorian and Edwardian eras; the upper classes and their domestic servants, the 'fallen women', the music-halls, the artists, and the demi-monde. All these moving against alternating backgrounds of greys, black and crimson, and enraptured with the vapours of wormwood.

VISUAL MAGICK: A Manual of Freestyle Shamanism

Jan Fries

A 'Sädhana' is an instrument that leads to a particular goal. In Tantra, it is a technical term denoting worship or spiritual practice. Tantra Sädhana is a collection of related instructional papers designed to aid the aspirant through a foundation Sädhana. Some say effective Sädhana requires an initiation (dékshé) from a qualified guru. This book is designed to act as a taster and to provide a short body of work suitable for the period of about one lunar month. In addition, the author had added several useful appendices - including the previously unpublished Tantrik Knuckle Bone Oracle.

Hinduism

This work describes the society in South India where priests and lay people claim supernatural powers and seek physical longevity and psychic immortality, and where arcane and sexual rituals take place. This study offers a vivid picture of their religious beliefs, magical rites and alchemical practices. It also describes their complex system of medicine and their tradition of poetry. Many examples of their poetry are included, poetry which is deeply religious but not without humour.

'If you have only one book on the Celtic past and present, this has to be the one'- The Pentacle 
'Imagine the forest. As darkness falls, the somber beeches disappear in misty twilight and shadows seem to gather under their branches. Far away, the blackbird's call tells of the coming of the night. The birds cease their singing, silence descends, soon the beasts of the night will make their appearance. Between tangled roots, hidden by nettles and brambles, the earth seems to ripple. A few humps of earth seem to emerge from the ground. They are the last traces of burial mounds, of mounds, which were tall and high 2500 years ago. Many of them have disappeared, hidden by tangled roots of beech and oak, ploughed flat by careless farmers, others again show caved-in tops where grave robbers have looted the central chamber. The locals shun these hills. There are tales that strange fires can be seen glowing on the mounds, and that on spooky nights, great armed warriors arise from their resting places. Then the doors to the deep are thrown open and unwary travelers have to beware of being invited into the halls of the dead and unborn. Here the kings of the deep feast and celebrate, time passes differently and strange treasures may be found. Who knows the nights when the gates are open? Who carries the primrose, the wish-flower, the strange blossom that opens the doors to the hollow hills?' 
'Highly Recommended' - The Cauldron
