First published in 1896, "The Magical Ritual of the Sanctum Regnum" is an interesting dissertation on the ruling of the world by the seven great archangels written by Éliphas Lévi, (1810 - 1875), a French author of occult literature and ceremonial magician. In this vintage volume, Lévi outlines how the world is ruled by one of the seven archangels, each for a period of 354 years. The archangels are represented by celestial bodies, with Michael being the sun, Gabriel being the moon, Samael, Mars, etc. This volume will appeal to those with an interest in the occult, and it is not to be missed by collectors of vintage esoteric literature. Contents include: "The Magical Ritual of the Sanctum Regnum", "The Priestess - La Papesse", "The Empress - L'imperatrice", "The Emperor", "L'Emereur", "The Pope of Hierophant - Le Pape", "The Lovers - L'amoureux", "The Chariot of Hermes - Le Chariot", "Justice - La Justice", etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new biography of the author.

Would you recognize an angel if you saw one? The majority of earth's inhabitants believe in Angels. Yet so few of us can claim to have seen one. Why? Perhaps it's because in order to encounter one, we first have to learn what to look for, and how to look! We live in a world where the natural and supernatural overlap. Angels are constantly on mission from God, and constantly at work in this world. From the Garden of Eden to the Book of Revelation, Scripture is filled with hundreds of references to these wondrous creatures. In this creative work, Scot McKnight explores what the Bible says - and doesn't say - about these majestic beings. And that's deeply important, because angels are still on mission today. They express God's love, confirm His presence, and even lead humans in redemptive worship. Don't just believe in angels. Learn how to recognise these messengers of God that are all around us and know how God might be using them to affect our lives.

Tarot cards have been used for over five hundred years, for gameplay, divination, creative inspiration and spiritual practice. The practice of reading Tarot comes with a rich, complex history, full of mystical, philosophical, and religious mystery. As old as the art form may be, its popularity in modern culture is growing rapidly- Tarot decks and cartomancy play a significant role in many present-day metaphysical healing practices, spiritual training, as well as artistic and creative circles...


With detailed illustrations and cryptic symbolism, Tarot can easily pique your interest--but where should you begin? There is an overwhelming amount of information out there, and since Tarot is an esoteric practice, it's difficult to know which sources have enough authority to provide accurate and reliable instruction...


In truth, there is no right way to use Tarot, nor is there a wrong way. The practice of cartomancy is all about intuition. If you don't consider yourself a deeply intuitive person, then the cards can be used to enhance your emotional instincts. Alternatively, if you are already guided by your visceral sensations, you might use Tarot to articulate and explain your gut instincts, elevating the things you feel to things you believe, understand, or "know"...


The only way to know how useful and impactful Tarot could be in your life is to try it. Roll up your sleeves and dive in, whether you already have a deck or are simply considering how and where to acquire one. The best time to get started is right now...
