"The Arcane Veil: Ten Discourses on The Craft and The History of Magic" by Shani Oates
"Analogue of Craft historiography, brought up to date through the author’s own experiential praxis. A discursive investigation of magical beliefs and practises in England since 600CE to the post-modern fall-out of the 21st century, analysing in particular its influences and survival strategies. Emphasis is placed on Christian, Heathen, and Hermetic Praxis, with provocative, critical study of the concepts of Lucifer, Witch-Blood, Sin-Eating and their influences on modern Traditional Craft praxes. “A driving thirst for knowledge is the forerunner of wisdom.

“Tubelo’s Green Fire” by Shani Oates

"Tubelo's Green Fire" by Shani Oates
"This book explores historical and contemporary ideas of witchcraft through the perspective of the Clan of Tubal Cain - a closed Initiatory group aligned to the Shadow Mysteries within the Luciferian stream. As students of arte we mediate the ancestral stream, teaching through practice with the sacred tenets of Truth, Love and Beauty. The Word is thus manifest in deed and vision. “A driving thirst for knowledge is the forerunner of wisdom. Knowledge is a state that all organic life posesses, wisdom is the reward of the spirit, gained in the search for knowledge.

His powerful and idiosyncratic art masks a philosophy of arcane beauty, often overlooked by the undiscerning eye. In this essay his personal systems are explored, clarified and augmented with judicious application of the artist’s own words. Here are excerpts from Spare’s last unpublished grimoire The Logomachy of Zos alongside the early text of The Book of Pleasure, clearly demonstrating the strength and consistency of his vision through life.

"Mastering The Great Table" by Scott Michael Stenwick (Volume II of the Mastering Enochian Magick series)
"Following the Enochian material that would become the Heptarchia Mystica, John Dee and Edward Kelley received a grid of letters called the Great Table that encodes a complex hierarchy of angels and demons, and a series of conjurations in the Angelic language called the Angelic Keys. These conjurations and the structure of the Great Table itself have inspired individual magicians and entire magical orders for centuries. Author Scott Michael Stenwick now does for the Great Table what he did for the Heptarchia Mystica in the first volume of this series, presenting the material in a manner that is true to Dee and Kelley’s original schema along with a ritual template that includes both modern...>>
