“Sepher Rezial Hemelach: The Book of the Angel Rezial” edited by Steve Savedow

"Sepher Rezial Hemelach is the long-awaited first English translation of this famous magical text, a translation from the ancient Hebrew in the rare and complete 1701 Amsterdam edition. According to Hebrew legend, the Sepher Rezial was presented to Adam in the Garden of Eden, given by the hand of God, and delivered by the angel Rezial. The myth thus suggests that this is the first book ever written, and of direct divine provenance. A diverse compendium of ancient Hebrew magical lore, this book was quite possibly the original source for later, traditional literature on angelic hierarchy, astrology, Qabalah, and Gematria. Moses Gaster mentions this in his introduction to The Sword of Moses (1896) suggesting...>>

“Tarot and the Archetypal Journey: The Jungian Path from Darkness to Light” by Sallie Nichols

"In this new edition of the classic work on Tarot and Jungian symbolism, Sallie Nichols demonstrates how to approach any Tarot deck via the archetypes and Jung's methods of word association, active imagination, and dialogue. Nichols explores symbolic meanings relevant to everyone and lessons regarding the human condition, psychological states, and attitudes that can lead to genuine personal insight. Through analogies to the humanities, mythology, and the graphic arts, the significance of the cards is related to personal growth and what Jung termed "individuation". The Major Arcana becomes a map of life, and the hero's journey becomes something that each individual can relate to one's personal life. First published nearly forty years ago as Jung and...>>
