"Tarot: The Open Reading" by Yoav Ben-Dov

"The object of this book is threefold. First, it is an introduction to Tarot cards and their reading, bringing together historical, philosophical, psychological and magical considerations. Second, it is a practical guide to the “open reading” method, based on looking at the card illustrations rather than learning fixed interpretations by heart. Third, it is a handbook for reading the Tarot de Marseille, which is the classical version of the traditional Tarot. It can also provide you with a deeper understanding of other Tarot decks, which are new adaptations of the same original symbols. Whether you are a novice or an experienced Tarot reader, and whatever deck or reading method you are now using, this book...>>

“The Book of the Law” and “The Book of Lies” by Aleister Crowley

"The Book of the Law" and "The Book of Lies" by Aleister Crowley

"Aleister Crowley’s black magic masterpiece The Book of the Law is the central sacred text of Thelema, written or ‘channeled’ by Crowley in 1904, who claimed it was dictated to him by a disembodied entity named ‘Aiwass’ while he spent the night in the King's Chamber of the Great Pyramid of Giza. The Book of Lies consists of 93 chapters, each of which consists of one page of text. The chapters include a question mark, poems, rituals, instructions, and obscure allusions and cryptograms. The subject of each chapter is generally determined by its number and its corresponding Qabalistic meaning. This is the original 1912 public domain text without Aleister Crowley’s 1921 commentary and without any...>>

“Midnight Movies” by James Hoberman and Jonathan Rosenbaum

"Midnight Movies" by James Hoberman and Jonathan Rosenbaum

Ever since theater exhibitors got the idea of putting on special programs at midnight — mainly diverse kinds of marginal exploitation fare, ideal for Halloween spook-a-thons or rowdy...>>
