“The Wheel: A Witch’s Path Back to the Ancient Self” by Jennifer Lane

Magick Matters

"Do you ever find that the earth stills and you suddenly feel acutely alive? Have you ever looked into an animal's eyes and felt the pull of a more primal world? Do you sometimes feel panic rise, or isolation sink upon you, or simply feel out of kilter with the modern world? 'Inside my cauldron is a thick fistful of paper, old diary entries, work "to do" lists, notes I wrote while I was in a bad place and feeling trapped in a life that was keeping my mind small and narrow; thoughts and feelings that are holding me back, keeping me tied to a time I want to let go of. These papers are ...>>

“Magical Hymns from Roman Egypt: A Study of Greek and Egyptian Traditions of Divinity” by Ljuba Merlina Bortolani

Magick Matters

Fifteen hymns receive a line-by-line commentary focusing on religious concepts, ritual practice, language and style. The overarching aim is to categorise the nature of divinity according to its Greek or Egyptian elements, examining earlier Greek and Egyptian sources and religious-magical traditions in order to find textual or conceptual parallels.

“Fumigations of the 7 Planets” by S. Aldarnay (Guides to the Underworld)

Magick Matters

"The recipes in this pamphlet have been compiled using the writing of Cornelius Agrippa, the author of the famous Three Books of Occult Philosophy. In these books, Agrippa outlines the history of and working behind much western magic including lengthy chapters dedicated to the influences of the 7 classical planets (the Sun, the Moon, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, Saturn) on the world, and their applications in magical working. Owing to the inclusion of many animal parts or poisonous ingredients, many practitioners may feel perturbed at creating these recipes in their original form. In Fumigations of the Seven Planets, author S. Aldarnay offers alternatives based on the principles laid down by Agrippa himself."...>>
