Synopsis

Quareia the Initiate Book Seven is one of fifteen workbooks containing two modules each. Book seven covers modules three and four from the Initiate section of Quareia: Power Dynamics of Creation, and Birth, Death and the Underworld.

The full section of the Quareia Initiate which includes all ten modules is also available in paperback and hardback forms.

The course is spread over three sections: Apprentice, Initiate, and Adept. Each section has ten modules, and each module has eight lessons. Each of the three sections is approximately five hundred thousand words: it is the most extensive, in-depth, and intelligent up to date magical course that is currently available worldwide.

The methods, information and techniques in the course enable the magician to engage any form of magic and work with it appropriately with the full knowledge of how that magic works, why it works and what is behind it. It also starts to guide the magician along the mystical path, a path that reaches beyond religions and faith, and one where the adept moves into mystical union with the universe around them.

The lessons are detailed: each lesson has a very practical application which in turn develops the ‘magical muscle’ within the magician, thus preparing them for the power they will be exposed to in subsequent study sections. It is not reference material or 'recipe magic' that can be dipped in and out of: the understanding of the foundations comes from the dovetailing, study, and layering of magic that forms within and around the apprentice. It is designed to be self-taught, with every detail and step assigned carefully and practically. By the end of this section, the apprentice will have all of the skills, knowledge and strength to take on the challenge of the next stage of training.

Author

The Quareia course is written in its entirety by magical adept and the Director of Quareia, Josephine McCarthy. Josephine has been involved in magic for forty years and has been teaching and writing about magic for over twenty five years. She is considered a revolutionizing force in the teaching of western magic, and one of the most prominent adepts of western magic alive today.

Quareia is a school that is open to anyone, and is free and accessible online at any time. It is a school that is entirely focused on teaching the most essential skills in magic, with unknown precision and depth in its materials. Yet it is free from any specific one style or specific religious overlay: various styles and religious patterns are studied and at times worked with in depth, but there is no one creed, culture or system that forms the foundation basis of the training: it is itself.

 

About this title

Review:

When I first took up the study of Magic(k) during the so-called 'Occult Explosion' of the 1960s, you could count on the fingers of one hand the number of genuinely potent books on the topic. I would have given anything for something as lucid and effective as this. It was said that the first lesson you had to learn on what was then called The Path, was the somewhat elusive Kabbalistic virtue known as Discrimination. That is, by sheer trial and error you had to filter out the gems from the avalanche of rubbish. With this book, you are straight in with a chance of finding the gems. - Alan Richardson, Author of 'Priestess, the Life and Magic of Dion Fortune
