The Golden Dawn: The Original Account of the Teachings, Rites, and Ceremonies of the Hermetic Order


Israel Regardie - 1971
    The original Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, which started in the late 1800s, borrowed from a wide variety of occult traditions ó Kabalah, Tarot, Geomancy, Enochian Magic, Theosophy, Freemasonry, Paganism, Astrology, and many more ó and created a unique and viable system of magic that is still being practiced today. Almost every contemporary occult writer and modern group has been influenced, directly or indirectly, by the Order or its members, making The Golden Dawn one of the most influential occult books of the past 100 years. The book is divided into several basic sections. First are the knowledge lectures, where you will learn the basics of the Kabalah, symbolism, meditation, geomancy and more. This is followed by the rituals of the Outer Order, consisting of five initiation rituals into the degrees of the Golden Dawn. The next section covers the rituals of the Inner Order including two initiation rituals, equinox ceremonies, and more. Then you will learn the basic rituals of magic and the construction, consecration, and means of using the magical tools. Once you have these you can go on to evocation rituals, talismans, and invocations. The book gives explanations for how to design talismans, do skrying and travel on the astral plane. You will also learn geomancy, the Tarot, and Enochian magic. Filled with numerous illustrations, lists, and tables, The Golden Dawn provides guidance for a lifetime of magic and life-changing transformation. Get your copy today.

The Compleat Astrologer


Derek Parker - 1971
    "The Compleat Astrologer is the most comprehensive guide to astrology ever published. It is a history of more than 6, 000 years, from the astrologer-priests of Babylon to modern interpreters of the Age of Aquarius...The illustrations-400 in all, 64 in color-are in themselves a pictorial history of civilization told in terms of astrology."

Astral Projection, Ritual Magic And Alchemy: Golden Dawn Material


S.L. MacGregor Mathers - 1971
    Prominent adepts of the Golden Dawn, whose members included W. B. Yeats and Aleister Crowley, preserved these traditions in manuscripts to be circulated among initiates of the Order. These documents, known as the Flying Rolls, reveal secrets of astral projection, clairvoyance, exorcism, alchemy, and other magical practices and occult philosophy. Many of the Flying Rolls escaped print and remained secret for some time, only slowly being tracked down over the years. Here, Francis King presents all the previously unpublished Flying Rolls. • Renowned occultist Francis King includes previously unpublished secret writings of the Golden Dawn in this important collection. • These are essential texts for practitioners of magical techniques, and of great interest to any student of Western occultism. • New edition of Astral Projection, Ritual Magic, and Alchemy
