 I'm enjoying "The Inner Temple of Witchcraft" by Christopher Penczak.

 

Connect with the Source of Magickal Power with this Foundational Course from Renowned Teacher Christopher Penczak

This limited-edition hardcover celebrates the anniversary of Christopher Penczak's groundbreaking work, The Inner Temple of Witchcraft.

The inner temple is your personal sacred space where there are no boundaries and all things are possible. With enhancements, corrections, and a focus on inclusivity, this edition of The Inner Temple of Witchcraft is an updated course for developing the magickal and psychic abilities that are the birthright of the witch.

Discover the history, traditions, and basic techniques of witchcraft, followed by thirteen hands-on lessons that culminate in a self-initiation ceremony equivalent to the first-degree level of traditional covens. This year-and-a-day course of study explores a wide range of topics that support and inform the dedicated witch:

· Ancient and modern magickal philosophy

· Modern scientific theories supporting a new definition of reality

· "Instant" magick techniques for protection, healing, and serenity

· Energy work and anatomy, including chakras and auras

· Astral travel, dreams, and spirit guides

· Healing techniques for body, mind, and spirit

In addition to serving as the textbook for the Temple of Witchcraft Mystery School's first-degree course, this book is designed to be used by witches everywhere. With study, dedication, and practice, the lessons and exercises will empower you to transform the repetitive rigors of the daily grind into a witch's web of magickal experiences.

The Keys to the Gateway of Magic. Dr Stephen Skinner. David Rankine. Occult. Grimoire

 I'm reading through "The Keys to the Gateway of Magic: Summoning the Solomonic Archangels and Demon Princes." Edited by Dr. Stephen Skinner and David Rankine.

 

This classic text of the Nine Great Keys details the invocation of the Archangels, the full hierarchy of spiritual beings (including Olympic Spirits and Elementals) and the evocation of the four Demon Princes.

Highly sought-after, this edition of a rare early seventeenth century grimioire has never before appeared in English. Occult scholar Stephen Skinner, along with magician and author David Rankine, trace the history of the Keys and offer full transcriptions of four key seventeenth century manuscripts in the British Library and in the Bodleian Library.

The Sixth and Seventh Books of Moses. Grimoire. Magick. Edited by Joseph H. Peterson

The Sixth and Seventh Books of Moses. Grimoire. Magick. Edited by Joseph H. Peterson
The Sixth and Seventh Books of Moses. Grimoire. Magick. Edited by Joseph H. Peterson

 I'm reading through "The Sixth and Seventh Books of Moses" grimoire edited by Joseph H. Peterson...

For people interested in folk magic. The Sixth and Seventh Books of Moses, arguably one of the most popular magick books ever published, contains two secret apocrypha ascribed to Moses, perhaps pseudepigraphically. The book consists of a collection of texts,which claim to explain the magick Moses used to win the biblical magick contest with the Egyptian priest-magicians, part the Red Sea, and perform other miraculous feats. It includes instruction in the form of invocations, magick words, and seals for calling upon the angels to affect worldly ends, from the sublime (calling down a plague of locusts and frogs upon your enemy) to the mundane (getting more money). Many manuscripts and printed pamphlet versions circulated in Germany in the 1800s, and an English translation by Johann Scheible first appeared in New York in 1880 that had not been corrected or re-edited until now. In creating this restored, corrected edition, Joseph Peterson drew on Scheible's final edition of the text and his original sources. It will be of great interest to those who have suffered through prior editions and anyone looking for a traditional source of Western magick. * Used in various modern traditions of American folk magick, from Pennsylvania Dutch hexmeisters and contemporary eclectic magicians, to voodoo practitioners and African American root workers. * Updated or fresh translations from original German, Latin, and Hebrew sources and restoration of censored or left out passages in earlier editions and 35 pages of text never before translated. * Describes the biblical magick ascribed to Moses and its application. * Extensively illustrated with over 100 magical seals, signs, and sigils.
