A unique collection of magical pathworkings based on the thirty-two paths of the Qabalistic Tree of Life. Pathworking is the occult term for a specific kind of visualization exercise in which the mind-self is projected into a series of situations and landscapes that can be viewed on a mental screen, or, once the mind has been trained, experienced as a participant with full sensory perception. Each working is preceded by a discussion of the individual path and of the experiences, correspondences and symbolism associated with it.

The Door Unlocked: An Astrological Insight into Initiation by Dolores Ashcroft Nowicki and Stephanie V. Norris. The idea of initiation has enthralled and entranced mankind since time began. An arcane process that changes the initiate forever, it is rarely talked about and thus continues to be cloaked in secrecy. This astounding book, co-written by one of the most respected teachers and Initiators alive today, explains exactly what it means to be initiated into a group, who chooses to follow that path, and what they have to go through in the process. This book is especially powerful because it also examines, through astrological charts, the inner path, and challenges, of the person undergoing the initiation. It is a book to treasure.

The New Book of the Dead is written specifically for Westerners. It is a detailed guide for dealing with death and bereavement in all its forms: natural and violent, children and old people.

This is not a book of sorrow and foreboding, but teaches us how to accept and even welcome death, as a great teacher, the last great mystery and culminating experience of life.

Pathworking is a term given to a specific kind of guided visualization exercise in which the mind is projected into a series of situations and landscapes that can be viewed on a mental screen. Tracing them from the earliest cave paintings, through the Egyptian Book of the Dead, the Bardic tradition and the story-tellers of Ireland, Dolores Ashcroft-Nowicki shows pathworkings to be a part of a much greater structure in the make-up of man, pertaining to his hopes and dreams and his ability to make those dreams come true. Used with purpose and by trained minds, the pathworking becomes a series of controlled thought patterns - and thought is the basis of creation.
