Amazon Description:
Occult Scholar Mitch Horowitz Explores Magick in History and Practice for the Hands-On Seeker.
"Simplicity," wrote legendary occultist Jack Parsons "has been the key to victory in all idea wars and, at present, magick does not have it." Practical Magick, acclaimed historian and esotericist Mitch Horowitz responds to this call, distilling magick to its core essentials.
Drawing upon ancient, Hermetic, Renaissance-era, and modern sources, Mitch dissects the building blocks of magick and provides formulas of immediacy, simplicity, and potency. He also surveys the history of magick, from deepest antiquity through the work of modernist intellects ranging from Newton and Schopenhauer to Crowley and Spare, finding connections to current studies in psychical research, quantum theory, and perceptual-based reality.
Readers receive to-the-point instruction in sex transmutation, sigil work, Tarot, backwards causation, the power of silence, tilting the scales of luck, magickal environments, and "spontaneous deity petition.
