From bestselling indie author and TikTok favorite Laura Thalassa
comes a witch fantasy set in the world of the Bargainer series. At
age twenty, Selene Bowers desperately hopes to be accepted into
Henbane Coven, an academy for young witches. Since one of the
requirements for entry is to connect with her powers via a quest
through the wilderness, Selene books a trip to South America. When
a nefarious supernatural force tries to drag her plane from the
sky, Selene's magic awakens to save her life-at a cost. Using her
powers devours her memories, one by one. Worse, when Selene braves
the jungle and discovers the source of the attack, she finds
herself awakening an ancient evil, Memnon the Cursed, who mistakes
Selene for his long-dead wife. The wife who betrayed him. Selene
manages to escape and begin her studies at Henbane, but when Memnon
turns up at the coven and witches are found dead across campus,
Selene becomes entangled in a dangerous plot. Accused of the
murders on the basis of her memory loss, Selene must rely on
Memnon's help for answers-and his plans for her will change
everything.
First published in 1975, B.J. Terwiel's "Monks and Magic" remains a
widely cited text. This is an absorbing study of Buddhism as
practised at that time in a community in rural Central Thailand. It
describes how esoteric spells and magical diagrams were the main
interest of children and adolescents but full ritual knowledge was
obtained in adulthood and tempered by life experiences. As death
approaches, the Buddhist world-view stimulates merit-making. This
fourth edition of the work is a major revision that updates the
original text, adds new material and offers a contemporary
perspective on the original study.
The Original Golden Dawn tarot cards with their correct esoteric
designs and colouring The Magical Tarot of the Golden Dawn
Deck comprises 78 fully illustrated tarot cards and an
instruction booklet, based on the Hermetic Order Golden Dawn tarot
lectures. The colouring used in this Golden Dawn/Stella Matutina
tarot deck is unique and is based on the four sets of Golden Dawn
colour scales. A comparative study between the current
Regardie/Wang deck and the classic Magical Tarot of the
Golden Dawn Deck will reveal a large difference in the
colouring, especially in the in the minor arcana, where the Wang
deck does not use the four colour scales. This coloured deck of
tarot cards is intended as a companion to The Magical Tarot
of the Golden Dawn book.
Advancing to higher levels of ritual magic with purpose and power
requires an exaltation of consciousness-a spiritual transformation
that can serve as an antitode to the seeming banality of modern
life.
Based on Kabbalistic techniques, the teachings of the Hermetic
Order of the Golden Dawn, and an Hermetic tradition spanning nearly
two thousand years, this innovative new work introduces the history
of the Golden Dawn and its mythology, the Tree of Life, Deities,
demons, rules for practicing magic, and components of effective
ritual.
A comprehensive course of self-initiation using Israel Regardie's
seminal "Golden Dawn" as a key reference point, "Kabbalah, Magic
and the Great Work of Self-Transformation" guides you through the
levels of the Golden Dawn system of ritual magic. Each grade in
this system corresponds with a sphere in the Kabbalistic Tree of
Life and includes daily rituals, required reading, written
assignments, projects, and additional exercises.
Knowledgeable and true to tradition, author Lyam Thomas Christopher
presents a well-grounded and modern step-by-step program toward
spiritual attainment, providing a lucid gateway toward a more
awakened state.
