“Chinese Trigram Magic: Summoning the Spirits of the Eight Trigrams” by Stauros Rein

Magick Matters

"This is a brief manual on using the eight trigrams of the I Ching for magical purposes. Though the methods described in this manual have roots in ancient methods, they have been updated to suit a modern context, making use of some of the innovations brought into magic by what is known as Chaos magic. Chinese sorcery modernized itself many times over in its history, making use of newly refined metals and paper upon their invention and incorporating other influences—mainly Indian but also Mongol—when it seemed useful to do so. In this book I have blended both ancient Chinese methods and norms with the more simplified and direct ethos of Chaos magic, creating a hybrid ...>>

“Creating the Soul Body: The Sacred Science of Immortality” by Robert E. Cox

Magick Matters

"Ancient peoples the world over understood that individual consciousness is rooted in a universal field of consciousness and is therefore eternal, surviving the passing of the physical body. They engaged in spiritual practices to make that transition maximally auspicious. These practices can be described as a kind of alchemy, in which base elements are discarded and higher levels of consciousness are realized. The result is the creation of a vehicle, a soul body, that carries consciousness beyond physical death. These spiritual preparations are symbolized in the Vedic, Egyptian, and Hebraic traditions as a divine stairway or ladder, a step-by-step path of ascent in which the practitioner raises consciousness by degrees until it comes to rest ...>>

“The Siren Call of Hungry Ghosts: A Riveting Investigation Into Channeling and Spirit Guides” by Joe Fisher

Magick Matters

"Mediumship dates back to the Greek Oracles and beyond, but millennia later nobody yet knows for certain what transpires when a medium enters a deep trance. Today, the practice of channeling spirit guides through hypnotized mediums is hotly debated. This strange phenomenon is either dismissed as a dubious parlor trick, or regarded as a form of communication between this world and the next. Many view "the guides" as a source of love and wisdom, but are they? For five years, Joe Fisher painstakingly investigated the claims of channelers and the mysterious voices that speak through them. The Siren Call of Hungry Ghosts is his gripping journey into a realm of darkness and deception. Joe Fisher, ...>>

“At the Bottom of the Garden: A Dark History of Fairies, Hobgoblins, Nymphs, and Other Troublesome Things” by Diane Purkiss

Magick Matters

"At the Bottom of the Garden is a history of fairies from the ancient world to the present. Steeped in folklore and fantasy, it is a rich and diverse account of the part that fairies and fairy stories have played in culture and society. The pretty pastel world of gauzy-winged things who grant wishes and make dreams come true—as brought to you by Disney's fairies flitting across a woodland glade, or Tinkerbell’s magic wand—is predated by a darker, denser world of gorgons, goblins, and gellos; the ancient antecedents of Shakespeare's mischievous Puck or J.M. Barrie's Peter Pan. For, as Diane Purkiss explains in this engrossing history, ancient fairies were born of fear: fear of ...>>
