At age 18, Damien Echols was sentenced to death for a crime he
didn't commit. "I spent my years in prison training to be a true
magician," he recalls. "I used magick - the practice of reshaping
reality through our intention and will - to stave off incredible
pain, despair, and isolation. But the most amazing feat of all that
practice and study was to manifest my freedom." With High Magick,
this bestselling author shares his first instructional book on the
powerful spiritual practice that helped him overcome his struggles
- so you can learn how to transform your own reality. What is High
Magick? The tradition Damien teaches is not about stage tricks or
illusions - it is an ancient discipline of spiritual realisation
kept alive for thousands of years. Here he offers clear training
for modern audiences on meditations and practices such as the
Four-Fold Breath, the Qabalistic Cross, the Lesser Rituals of the
Pentagram, using sigils and talismans, and working with angelic
forces of creation. "Magick is a journey," teaches Damien. "It's a
continuously unfolding path that has no end - meant for
questioners, seekers, and those who desire to peel away the surface
of reality to see what lies beneath." If you're ready to discover
your untapped potential for co-creating your reality with the
energy of the divine, then join this extraordinary teacher to begin
your training in High Magick.
In 1993, teenagers Damien Echols, Jason Baldwin, and Jessie
Misskelley, Jr. - who have come to be known as the West Memphis
Three - were arrested for the murders of three eight-year-old boys
in Arkansas. The ensuing trial was marked by tampered evidence,
false testimony, and public hysteria. Baldwin and Misskelley were
sentenced to life in prison, while eighteen-year-old Echols, deemed
the 'ringleader,' was sentenced to death. Over the next two
decades, the three men became known worldwide as a symbol of
wrongful conviction and imprisonment, with thousands of supporters
and many notable celebrities calling for a new trial. In a shocking
turn of events, all three men were released in August 2011. Now
Echols shares his story in full - from abuse by prison guards and
wardens, to portraits of fellow inmates and deplorable living
conditions, to the incredible reserves of patience and perseverance
that kept him alive and sane while incarcerated for nearly two
decades.
"Angels do not belong to any one single religion, system, or
dogma," teaches Damien Echols. "They are almost pure energy - the
very substance the cosmos is made of. They're also incredibly
willing to work with us if asked." With Angels and Archangels, this
bestselling author presents an essential resource for understanding
what angels are, how they make themselves available, and magickal
practices to invoke their power to transform your life. Invoking
angels and archangels gives you access to incredible potential for
manifestation, healing, and spiritual growth. In this lucid and
information-packed guide, Damien shares his unique understanding
and experience of magickal practices refined in the crucible of his
wrongful death row imprisonment. Illustrations include Damien's
original artwork, with a sigil for each of the primary archangels.
"When working with angels and archangels," says Damien, "I've come
to realize that they don't carry out the tasks we charge them with
just because we ask them to - they do it because they perceive the
divine within us." Now available in paperback, Angels and
Archangels is an essential resource for every magickal library, an
invitation by one of the most exciting modern teachers of the art
to discover the enormous potential waiting for your call.
The New York Times bestselling memoir by Damien Echols of the West
Memphis Three, who was falsely convicted of three murders and spent
nearly eighteen years on Death Row. In 1993, teenagers Damien
Echols, Jason Baldwin, and Jessie Misskelley, Jr.-who have come to
be known as the West Memphis Three-were arrested for the murders of
three eight-year-old boys in Arkansas. The ensuing trial was marked
by tampered evidence, false testimony, and public hysteria. Baldwin
and Misskelley were sentenced to life in prison; while
eighteen-year-old Echols, deemed the "ringleader," was sentenced to
death. Over the next two decades, the WM3 became known worldwide as
a symbol of wrongful conviction and imprisonment, with thousands of
supporters and many notable celebrities who called for a new trial.
In a shocking turn of events, all three men were released in August
2011. Now Echols shares his story in full-from abuse by prison
guards and wardens, to portraits of fellow inmates and deplorable
living conditions, to the incredible reserves of patience,
spirituality, and perseverance that kept him alive and sane while
incarcerated for nearly two decades. In these pages, Echols reveals
himself a brilliant writer, infusing his narrative with tragedy and
irony in equal measure: he describes the terrors he experienced
every day and his outrage toward the American justice system, and
offers a firsthand account of living on Death Row in heartbreaking,
agonizing detail. Life After Death is destined to be a riveting,
explosive classic of prison literature.
