The multiple strands which make up the Western Mystery Tradition
can present a bewildering tangle of paths for the seeker to
negotiate - and this book provides the roadmap by exploring them
with clarity and insight. Gordon Strong, who has written various
books on the Arthurian legends, Tarot, the goddess and sacred stone
circles, is uniquely placed to offer this journeyman's guide to
magic. Meditation and contacts, Tarot, Qabalah, shamanism and
polarity magic are covered, as are the British and Egyptian
mysteries. The Way of Magic explores the path of ancient secrets as
well as more modern adaptations of them, winding through the
enigmatic codices of Egypt and the early shamen through to the
modern use of Qabalah and practical magic today. Strong follows an
established path with the fervour of a pioneer, making new
connections and bringing fresh insights to age-old teachings. He
contends that "wisdom does not automatically follow in the wake of
a great deal of information, no matter how comprehensive" and
proceeds to offer a practitioner's manual for ritual magic that
emphasises commitment and self-discipline. This book will be an
invaluable guide to any student of the mysteries looking to find
some clarity in making their way forward. It will also appeal to
those interested in the history of various mystery schools and
their impact upon philosophical thought.
