Synopsis:

Magick may be one of the most difficult, diversified, and fascinating of all the occult sciences. Understanding the theory behind this rich Western tradition is crucial to becoming an accomplished magician. This comprehensive and well-rounded introduction to magickal practice provides a solid foundation for furthering one's magick studies. Instead of issuing spells and rituals like a recipe book, this magick primer explains the basic laws governing magic. The author also discusses what it means to be a "good" magician, emphasizing self-discipline and training one's will, imagination, and trance. Many facets of high magick are covered, including The Lesser Banishing Ritual of the Pentagram, sigil magick, ritual magick, visualization, the Greater Ritual of the Pentagram, planetary magick, tools of the magician, trance work, and much more.
