“The Hidden Levels of the Mind: Swedenborg’s Theory of Consciousness” by Douglas Taylor

Magick Matters

In this book, Taylor pulls these loose threads together and weaves them into a simple, coherent whole, presenting Swedenborg’s teachings as a system that anyone can follow.

“The Spiritual Power of Masks: Doorways to Realms Unseen” by Nigel Pennick

Masks make it possible to activate ancient archetypes, with the mask wearer reanimating or personifying an ancestral presence or spirit, a deity or power, an animal or a being of the eldritch world.
