In writing this poem I have attempted to cut through so much of
what we now think of as Ancient Egypt, and only the bare bones will
remain. Symbolic figureheads such as Osiris and Amon will be
discussed, but not elevated, and favoured centres of apparent
importance or popularity will be by-passed. This will not be a book
for those who wish to play tourist, dropping off here for a quick
sensation, or stopping there for an imagined photo-shoot, it will
be an experience for all those who wish to embrace the origin and
notion of Set, and Set's values. In recording the mythical life of
Set, we have applauded him. The strength and warmth of his
intellect demand similar warmth in his dramatic performance
throughout ancient Egyptian history. To adopt an attitude of
detachment, particularly towards the ancient and unknown, can bar
from sight those many scenes glimpsed by the historian who
approaches the role of reconstructing an era with sympathy, insight
and understanding. Neither the truth nor the equilibrium of
scholarship is disturbed by controlled imagination and honest
praise of this much-maligned Egyptian god. We are portraying the
mythological concept and personality of Set not in order to worship
a hero, but to recognise him as a leader and a hero. Set strives to
take his stand against 5,000 years of a 'drift of history' with the
introduction of Osirion and Amonite tradition, and a
preconditioning before being replaced by Christianity.
Leap directly into the powerful undercurrents of Egyptian magick
and be changed forever. Venture into a hidden realm where true
gnosis and healing can be found. By invoking these deities of
ancient Egypt, you create a "stargate" whereby you can enter into
other dimensions, receive messages from the Neteru, and become one
with the gods once again.
Call upon Isis for boundless love, invoke Sekhmet for
protection, summon the jackal god Anubis when seeking to end one
thing and begin another. Combining elegant rites with an evocative
description of each deity's myths, this book invites you to begin a
soul-level transformation and awaken to your own strength, power,
and divinity.
"The visualizations here draw their imagery from classical
grimoires and Qabalistic philosophy. Plus, they have a specific and
useful goal. Each visualization takes you on a journey into the
symbolic realm of an archangel, where you are introduced to the
entity's sigils and symbols and other sacred imagery before
encountering the archangel himself. Each visualization builds upon
those before it, until the aspirant has been led through the seven
circles of heaven and has established a personal link to the
archangel that governs each one. At the end, the aspirant will have
learned to recognize the images, seals and symbols they will
encounter in the Solomonic and other advanced systems of angel
summoning. Such guided visualizations are certainly absent from the
medieval texts about angels. So, why should I urge anyone who
wishes to work with angels - even Solomonic practitioners - to
follow the instructions in this book? Simply put, this book is
based upon the same principle I described above: safely
establishing first contact. It accomplishes this without resort to
the full-fledged summoning ceremonies intended to call the angel
down to the physical plane - an advanced practice the grimoires
tend to jump into without preamble. This book even includes simple
rituals by which you can submit petitions to the archangels in
times of need - and these rituals are not entirely removed from the
methods of the grimoires. Therefore, working through the steps
outlined in this book can serve as a wonderful bridge between
"square one" and the fully adept practices of angelic summoning.":

In ancient Egypt a precious papyrus reveals the hiding place of a
legendary scroll. Prince Setne Khaemwaset uses its secrets to
create the magical collar of the seven ankhs. The ankhs are stolen,
and a riddle is set that will disclose their locations. Ramose, a
Time Lord, travels to the twentieth century to locate the riddle.
One piece is in the Cairo Museum, and the other belongs to Vida
Richardson Hardy in England. Her Granddaughter Meri copies this
fragment, and discovers a recipe for a magic mirror. Kenneth,
Vida's Grandson, identifies the second half of the riddle in Cairo.
On a visit to London, he and Meri de-code the riddle, and venture
back in time to Ancient Egypt to search for the seven ankhs. But
Kenneth realizes that Meri's in danger - with the aid of the magic
mirror, he goes to the rescue - but will he be able to save her?
