Book Description
" Applied Magic is a selection of Dion Fortune's writings on the practical applications of magical and esoteric techniques. Everyone has the ability to access the invisible planes of existence a whole kingdom of mind and spirit which cannot be perceived with the physical senses. Fortune provides invaluable guidance to anyone intent on increasing their inner awareness. She declares, Esoteric tradition admits of no exclusiveness; it is the very essence of its spirit that it blasphemes no God that has been hallowed by our devotion. It sees all religions as the expressions of our spirit rather than the personal revelation of a jealous God to His chosen people. It suffers from neither superstitious awe nor bigoted fear..."

Magic PDF Author: Gianluca Schrankel
Publisher: FriesenPress
ISBN: 1525572350
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 218

Book Description
Magic has been understood in a number of different ways throughout human history, from a sign of religious communion, to the invocation of the dark arts, to the magician’s employment of chicanery, to the best-sellers stacks of children’s fiction literature. And yet, at its heart magic is something far less elusive, and far more applicable to your ordinary, everyday life. Magic offers a profound philosophy on reality that is as natural as it is mysterious, with the power to practically inform the choices you make, your interactions with others, your perspectives, your experiences, and your ability to achieve the life you’ve always wanted. Magic is the attainable ability to tap into the interconnected web of natural forces, intangible energies, and collective consciousness that co-create human reality. Magic is not only a window into the inextricable relationship between consciousness and matter, it is also a tool that anyone can wield to build one’s own perceptual reality, and to take control of one’s own conscious experience in the modern era. Through explorations of magic, consciousness, energy work, altered states, and the interconnected threads that weave the fabric of human experience, Gianluca Schrankel offers a philosophy and a set of practices that can shape the way you see your life, and your ability to transform it.

A guide to England’s rich history of magical lore and practice “for readers of works like Harry Potter who have grown up a bit into wanting to know more” (The Hermetic Library). Through experiments to try and places to visit, as well as a historical exploration of magic and interviews with leading magicians, The Book of English Magic will introduce you to the extraordinary world that lies beneath the surface.

Richly illustrated and deeply knowledgeable, this book is an invaluable source for anyone curious about magic and wizardry, or for sophisticated practitioners seeking to expand their knowledge. “Playful and serious, respectful and amused . . . this will remain the standard work for years to come.” —The Sunday Telegraph “A magical mystery tour.” —The Times “Fabulous.” —Daily Express “Lucid and wonderfully easy to read . . . While it is indeed a perfect book for the ‘intelligent novice’ it’s far more than that—it’s a serious, in-depth survey of a massive topic.” —WitchVox “An accessible and immensely readable book . . . A fascinating insight into a hidden world.” —Booksquawk

Book Description
This electronic version has been made available under a Creative Commons (BY-NC-ND) open access license. The study of witchcraft accusations in Europe during the period after the end of the witch trials is still in its infancy. Witches were scratched in England, swum in Germany, beaten in the Netherlands and shot in France. The continued widespread belief in witchcraft and magic in nineteenth- and twentieth-century France has received considerable academic attention. The book discusses the extent and nature of witchcraft accusations in the period and provides a general survey of the published work on the subject for an English audience. It explores the presence of magical elements in everyday life during the modern period in Spain. The book provides a general overview of vernacular magical beliefs and practices in Italy from the time of unification to the present, with particular attention to how these traditions have been studied. By functioning as mechanisms of social ethos and control, narratives of magical harm were assured a place at the very heart of rural Finnish social dynamics into the twentieth century. The book draws upon over 300 narratives recorded in rural Finland in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries that provide information concerning the social relations, tensions and strategies that framed sorcery and the counter-magic employed against it. It is concerned with a special form of witchcraft that is practised only amongst Hungarians living in Transylvania.
