Abrahadabra:
Understanding Aleister Crowley's Thelemic Magick
By Rodney Orpheus
Thelemic magick, as it is practiced today, is based on the works of Aleister Crowley. Those works can be dense, and Crowley’s suggested course of study intimidating to beginners. In Abrahadabra, Rodney Orpheus offers a much simpler and more immediate path for working with the same magical current Crowley used. His approach is grounded in practice—you don’t need to read tomes before you begin to meditate and participate in rituals and practical exercises and manifestations. Abrahadabra is a perfect primer for anyone who is curious to know what magick is all about, but it is also a wonderful sourcework for those looking to augment their own Wiccan or pagan practice with ritual magick or who seek a deeper understanding of Crowley's classic works.

Unknown God:
W.T. Smith and the Thelemites
The first documentary study of Aleister Crowley's contemporary followers in North America, told through the life of their de facto leader, Wilfred Talbot Smith. Smith met Charles Stansfeld Jones (Frater Achad) and through him, the works of Aleister Crowley. Although Crowley and Smith met only once, their twenty year correspondence proved to be a major link to the few and the faithful attracted to Crowley's work in the US and Canada. Smith's spiritual life centered first on the initiatic structure of the Order of the A.A., complemented by the emerging fraternal and social schemes of the Ordo Templi Orientis (OTO). To promulgate the Crowleyan teachings, in 1934 Smith incorporated his own "Church of Thelema". The following year he initiated OTO activity in Los Angeles which attracted its own cast of occult characters. Smith's life reached a strange conclusion when Crowley sent him off on a retreat to determine which God he was incarnating. It was a journey from which Frater 132 never returned. This is a fascinating story, intimately interwoven with the lives of most of Crowley's disciples in the US including C.F. Russell, Jane Wolfe, Max R. Schneider, Jack Parsons, Louis T. Culling, Frederic Mellinger and Grady L. McMurtry as well as occult teachers like H. Spencer Lewis (AMORC) and Paul Foster Case (BOTA).

Learning Ritual Magic
By John Michael Greer
A training manual for anyone serious about improving their magic based on the western mystery traditions, including tarot, ritual magic, Qabalah, and astrology. Just as no one expects to run a marathon or play a Bach violin concerto without sufficient training, so practitioners of the magical arts shouldn't expect to work complex, powerful magical rituals without a solid grounding in the techniques of Hermetic high magic. By spending at least a half hour a day practicing the lessons found here, the solitary apprentice attains the proper groundwork and experience for working ritual magic. Provides lessons on meditation and a set of exercises designed to develop basic skills in imagination, will, memory, and self-knowledge, all of which are absolute fundamentals to magical attainment. While the authors discuss the essentials of magical theory, they focus on daily, basic perspectives rather than launching into details of advanced practice. Designed for the solitary practitioner, Learning Ritual Magic concludes with a ceremony of self-initiation.

Ceremonial Magic
Power of Evocation
By Joseph C. Lisiewski
For centuries, the ceremonial evocation of spiritual beings has been Magic's darkest corner. Reputed to fulfill the Magician's material desires, evocation has been the topic of the most famous Grimoires---the Grammars of Magic. From the Sworn Book of Honorius the Magician, to the Greater Key of Solomon and the Goetia; from the Grand Grimoire, to the complete treatise of the Lemegeton, all give direct, yet difficult, directions to the individual desiring to have the 'good life' in the here-and-now. But the simplest of Grimoires, the Heptameron of Peter de Abano, has escaped the attention of modern Ceremonialists. Its simplicity and power in summoning the Aerial Spirits is second to none. Ceremonial Magic lays bare the operation of the Heptameron. Its Magical Axioms, extensive Commentaries, copious notes, and personal instructions to the reader---all gained from Dr. Lisiewski's forty-years of study and practice in Ceremonial Magic---make this a resource that no serious student of Magic can afford to be without. It is all here, as in no other Grimoire. Use its instructions and the world of evocation and personal gratification are well within your grasp!

 Secrets of Ancient Magic:
Path of the Goddess
By Frances Harrison, Nineveh Shadrach
Nineveh Shadrach has unearthed a tradition millenia old, far older than the Golden Dawn and Wicca, and has resurrected it, made it new again, and brought it into the light of a new day. Many readers will see some familiar formula with the variations on the Middle Pillar and the LVX formula, but the enhancements raise the techniques to a new magnitude of power. However, what is much more plentiful are the lost Divine Names, magical alphabets, and ancient techniques never before found in print. From its step-by-step basics on breathing, relaxation and visualization for beginners, to its deep rich history dating back to the Chaldeans, to its calculative theory of magic squares and determining the name of your Holy Guardian Angel, to the intense and complex ritual practice of Magical Initiation the the Contact of that Holy Guardian Angel, this book has something special for every occultist, from Neophyte to Magister, from Kaballist to Kitchen Witch.

Understanding Aleister Crowley's Thoth Tarot:
By Lon Milo Duquette
To authoritatively discuss the Harris-Crowley Thoth Tarot, one must not only be a Crowley expert, but a tarot expert as well. Lon Milo DuQuette is both. For over 30 years he has studied and practiceed Crowley's magical system. He is also a Certified Tarot Grand Master and creator of the Tarot of Ceremonial Magick. Crowley's own Book of Thoth, written just before his death, was intended to be the accompanying text to the deck, but while the cards can be appreciated the moment they are taken out of the box, the Book of Thoth requires an intimate familiarity with Crowley's complex teachings. What has been missing, and what DuQuette has created, is an introductory text for the deck. In clear and often humorous language he provides everything you need to know about Crowley's fundamental principles to get the most out of using the deck. He starts with the basic background of the deck before delving intdescriptionsns of each card in depth. Each card is described in detail regarding it's traditional tarot meaning, which is then expanded upon with all the other attributions Crowley intended.

 The Chicken Qabalah of Rabbi Lamed Ben Clifford:
Dilettante's Guide to What You Do and Do Not Know to Become a Qabalist
By Lon Milo Duquette
A unique and humorous—and also uniquely practical—approach to the increasingly popular study of Qabalah. This is a seriously funny book! Learn the basics of Qabalah in spite of yourself! Traditional Qabalistic (or Cabalistic, or, indeed, Kabbalistic—read this book to find out what the difference is…we know you’ve always wondered) sources tend to be a bit, er, dry. DuQuette spices up the Qabalah and makes it come alive, restoring the joy of learning the fundamentals of this admittedly arcane system by using simple, amusing anecdotes and metaphors. This account, written psuedepigraphically (fictitiously attributed to a supposed authority), allows DuQuette as Rabbi Lamed Ben Clifford to soar to outrageous heights and, when necessary, stand apart from the silliness to highlight the golden eggs of Qabalistic wisdom nested therein. Sure to be a revelation to those all who think that teaching about the Qabalah needs to be tedious and serious, DuQuette shows that great truths can be transmitted through the medium of laughter.

 New Hermetics:
21st Century Magick for Illumination & Power
By Jason Augustus Newcomb
The New Hermetics is a powerful spiritual technology of the mind. It is a course of study and practice that teaches the science of illumination and the ability to alter reality. The ancient Egyptian form of Hermetic philosophy was that the mind shapes reality. The New Hermetics extends that philosophy – the universe is a great mind or consciousness, and we are a part of that consciousness; therefore by learning to control the mind, we learn to control our part of the universe. With updated versions of the ancient Rosicrucian brotherhood's 10 levels of initiation, combined with ancient and modern mind-expanding techniques such as visualization and NLP (neuro-linguistic programming), The New Hermetics progressively gives initiates power over their minds and world. Practicing these elements simultaneously makes it possible to undergo initiation into the mysteries of consciousness in a fraction of the time it was ever before possible. The course offered in the book lets practitioners master their minds in such a way that they will be able to achieve anything and everything they want in life, spiritually and physically.
