(P/B) THE GOLDEN DAWN

Παρουσίαση

This masterwork by Israel Regardie reveals the complete curriculum of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, the seminal order that has directly or indirectly influenced virtually every occult group for more than 100 years. Membership in the Order included W. B. Yeats, Aleister Crowley, Dion Fortune, A. E. Waite, Florence Farr, and, of course, Regardie. "The Golden Dawn" is so complete that any dedicated individual can learn the rituals and secret wisdom of the Order. The knowledge lectures expose the mysteries of the Qabalah, tarot, geomancy, and astrology. Learn to perform the five grade rituals leading you to the Inner Order and the development of true magical power. Discover the inner mysteries and secrets of rites such as the lesser and supreme rituals of the pentagram, the hexagram ritual and its variants, and the subtle beauty of the Rose Cross. Included are instructions to design and consecrate magical ritual tools. Become proficient in clairvoyance and scrying, talismans and their consecration, and Enochian magic. This book is the key to achieving the goal of the Order: to become "more than human." (From the publisher)
