These essays, now revised and brought together, represent the fruit
of a lifetime's study and experience of occult techniques. The
emphasis throughout is on practical methods of releasing the vast
inner potential on which magic depends, with the aim of finding
'the jewel of a new life' - a life full of creative possibilities
based on a radical renewal of consciousness.
Introduction from noted Golden Dawn scholar Pat Zalewski Includes
the Opening of the Watchtower Ritual for Self TransformationThe
proper working of ritual is at the heart of the Western magical
tradition. This book shows exactly how ceremonial techniques can be
used to concentrate and harness the enormous psychic and spiritual
potential of human consciousness. Dr. Regardie 's detailed analysis
and description of key rituals are based on his own considerable
experience and his knowledge of Golden Dawn techniques. In addition
to providing practical instructions on robes, ritual equipment and
decor, he also links current occult practice to broader historical
precedents.
Israel Regardie wrote "The Tree of Life, " a book many consider his
magnum opus, " "in 1932. It has continued to sell for decades. And
no wonder. Up until the time this book was published, very little
information about true high magic was available to the public.
In this book, Regardie reveals the secrets of real magic. He begins
with an explanation of what magic is and, just as importantly, what
magic is not. He explains that it is a spiritual study and practice
which, along with forms of yoga, forms the two branches of the tree
that is mysticism. Magic is not being a medium or a psychic. Then
he explains the tools of the magician, what they mean, and how to
use them. He explains the techniques of evocation and invocation,
skrying, and astral travel. He shows how the Qabalah unites
everything. He even gives a description of the secrets of sexual
magick. All of this is in a clear, lucid writing style. This book
is simply a must for anyone who is, or aspires to be, a real
magician.
Although Chic and Sandra Tabatha Cicero were friends of Regardie
and are Senior Adepts of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn,
what changes could they have made to this classic book? Well, they
did change the spelling from British style to American. And they
did change his transliterations of Hebrew into the more popular
style he used in his later books. But nothing vital was changed or
removed. Everything else they added was complementary to the text
that was there. And what incredible additions they are Extensive
annotations throughout every chapter; over 100 illustrations; more
descriptive contents pages; a glossary, a bibliography and an
index. They've even added a biographical note on Regardie and the
importance of this book to him and to the occult world.
This book contains some of the finest occult writing that has ever
been produced. And with the new material by the Ciceros, it becomes
a must-have for any magician
This title contains 2 CDs. This title gives an unparalleled and
unique opportunity to hear Dr Regardie's own voice providing
instructions on magical methods and The Golden Dawn.

colour insert, additional original material, and refreshed design

The classic book on working with the energy of the body for
spiritual purposes, The Middle Pillar by Israel Regardie, is now
more complete, more modern, more usable, and better than ever. The
exercise known as the Middle Pillar was devised by the Hermetic
Order of the Golden Dawn. Regardie expanded upon it and made it
public over 60 years ago in the first edition of this book. Since
that time, the exercise has been altered and adapted for just about
any spiritual use you could think of. It is a mainstay of many
Western traditions of magic. Now in its third edition, The Middle
Pillar is better than ever. ?It has been edited by Chic Cicero and
Sandra Tabatha Cicero, close friends of the late Regardie and
senior Adepts of the Golden Dawn. They have also added new material

In this newly rediscovered text, famed occultist Israel Regardie
sheds light on the psychological/spiritual meaning behind the
symbols and metaphors of alchemy. To this end, he presents an
important seventeenth century alchemical treatise for analysis,
"The True Book of The Learned Greek Abbot Synesius Taken out of The
Emperor's Library," written by an anonymous alchemist. As in his
previous book on alchemy (The Philosopher's Stone), Regardie
discusses "The True Book of Synesius" in the language of Jungian
psychology, magnetism, and hypnosis. But here the discussion is
more specific, with Regardie citing his own unique experiences as a
therapist and a healer. In Gold, Regardie explores the similarities
between alchemical theory, Taoist philosophy, yoga, hypnosis, Zen
Buddhism, and experiments with the human aura.
Fully edited and annotated by Chic and Sandra Tabatha Cicero,
Gold is the first new book by Regardie published in decades and
includes two important appendices. First, Regardie talks about the
practical use of the concepts, and the Ciceros reveal a previously
unpublished version of Regardie's The Art of True Healing,
containing the earliest version of this paper taken straight from
the author's personal advance copy, complete with Regardie's own
corrections penciled into the margins.
Long considered the best single introduction to the Qabalah for
magicians, the third edition of Israel Regardie's A Garden of
Pomegranates is now better than ever, thanks to the extensive
annotations and new material by Chic Cicero and Sandra Tabatha
Cicero. Their work has made A Garden of Pomegranates easier to
understand, more complete, and up to date. It now includes over 300
pages of never-before-published information from two Senior Adepts
of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn. --Expands Regardie's
definitive text into a practical manual for Qabalistic magic
--Includes pathworkings and guided visualizations for the 32 Paths
of Wisdom --Suggests a course of study for learning the Qabalah and
incorporating its teachings into daily life --Shows how to create
your own personal Qabalistic mantra using gematria or Hebrew
numerology --Includes a technique for Rising on the Planes, so you
can explore different Qabalistic worlds --Features a Middle
Pillar-style exercise for exploring and activating different parts
of the soul --Written by one of the most influential magical
teachers of modern times and two of his personal students
The Qabalah is the ancient system of Hebrew mysticism that is
the foundation of Western magical and esoteric studies. Its primary
symbol is the Tree of Life, a diagram that can aid in the study of
the nature of the Universe, the essence of God, and the human mind,
spirit, and soul. A Garden of Pomegranates is the clearest
introductory guide on this subject. When Israel Regardie wrote A
Garden of Pomegranates in 1932, he designed it to be a simple yet
comprehensive guidebook outlining the complex system of the Qabalah
and providing a key to its symbolism. Since then, it has achieved
the status of a classic among texts on the Qabalah. The full
annotations, critical commentary, and explanatory notes now make
this book the ultimate single resource on the subject. The new
material, including pathworkings, exercises, daily affirmations,
rituals, meditations, and more, not only complement the original,
full text included in this edition, but also make A Garden of
Pomegranates indispensable for modern magicians.

Regardie, born Francis Israel Regudy (1907-1985) was an occultist
and writer, author of books on the Hermetic Order of the Golden
Dawn. The exercise known as the "Middle Pillar" was devised by the

made it public over 60 years ago in the first edition of this book.
Since that time, the exercise has been altered and adapted for just
about any spiritual use you could think of. It is a mainstay of

technique to break the barrier between the conscious and
unconscious. This classic work provides an introduction to magic
and occultism while providing directions as to how to perform the
Qabalistic Cross, the Lesser Banishing Ritual of the Pentagram and
the Middle Pillar exercise. It remains a classic book in the field.
