Of all the oracle systems in use today, Tarot is arguably one of the better known. 78 Cards - 22 images which could be said to describe a journey through life and a further 56 which add people and textures to the main chapters of that adventure. As someone who has been exploring the Tarot for several decades, I can honestly say that it one of the most visually poetic embodiments of esoteric teachings available to the student of the arcane. It is frequently misrepresented as simply an oracle and given an esoteric history which is firmly in the realms of the fairy tale but when understood it is a symbolic initiatory system which opens a doorway to spiritual exploration. This book represents a way of taking a journey of self-discovery and in the process developing intuition and genuine insight.

There are several worlds of magic. The glittering world of the illusionist; the flippant world of the conjuror and the world of the 'real magician' manifesting change, summoning supernatural entities - the stuff of stories and legend. The truth is that Magic is Real and Magicians do work to understand their relationship with themselves, others and the Cosmos. This book is an attempt to reclaim the magician by recognising the role he or she plays and the wisdom to which they aspire. It is a brief journey through the worlds of psychology, science and ritual. It will set those seeking mystical 'truths' for the first time and offer food for thought to the established occult practitioner. This book explores aspects of psychology, physics, occult philosophy and offers practical steps and ideas for starting or continuing your own journey into the world of the real magician. Make magick relevant by reclaiming the Magician. Believe Everything and Believe Nothing Find the Magician Within

A leading spiritual writer recovers "The Desert Way of Believing" -- the spiritual pathway discovered by early Christian monks who lived in the Egyptian desert that is still relevant to Christians today. Alan Jones distills the elements that made this fully orthodox way of inner transformation a unique and important part of the early church. Refreshingly readable and filled with rich insights, Soul Making draws together the spirituality of modern literature and elements of psychology. Jones shows how the desert way can become for any spiritual seeker a soul-stretching means of experiencing the "wonder, mystery, and awe" at the heart of the Christian faith.
