Thinking back on my own love for the author Dion Fortune, I created this story about a teen's spiritual journey after discovering her empowering books. That part is true. But this particular tale is about fictional Effie Thomas, who likewise stumbles across books written by Dion Fortune that not only transform her life, but set her on an otherworldly adventure in search of meaning. Though wishing she'd meet people like the beloved characters that she read about, Effie eventually meets several like-minded people in her own town, who guide her through dangerous encounters and newfound abilities. Only by finding her own voice through writing about her experiences does she make sense of it all, and she ends up being a conduit for those who are ready to find their own personal adventures.

Portal of the King's Daughter is a journey through encoded Mysteries and Sacred Geometry, including the tesseract, while exploring an ancient Greek Formula, seen by the Pythagorean Androcydes as philosophical symbols, which are unfolded through the study of Heidegger and others, on a course of self-discovery. Then using the gates of the Sepher Yetzirah, fourth dimensional symbols from the Pythagorean Tradition in Freemasonry, 15 Rosicrucian plates, as well as guidance from Thelemic Libers, one is offered a doorway for exploration, with the end result of seeking to merge with one's Holy Guardian Angel and becoming its messenger.

The Scarlet Grimoire weaves a modern take on Greco-Egyptian magick for practitioners of wiccan and/or Thelema. After falling in love with the Egyptian Book of the Dead and The Leyden Papyrus, I sought to reimagine new life from them through creative writing and designing rituals, and this book arose from my earliest book in the 1990's, as a personal record of this time period.

A study of Liber 231. A journey through the Qliphoth, where the Holy Shekinah is hidden in the shells, where few venture to find Her. This is a grimoire for encountering and reconnecting with Her in the tunnels below, as we seek the return of the Bride/Daughter. She is everything we have been looking for, and shunning for far too long, and it is time to meet Her. This book is a personal trek into the Day and Nightside of the tarot, and a guide for anyone seeking the Daughter and the truth of oneself as they stand as a prism between the white and black, the Above and Below; inspired by Spare, Grant, Achad and Crowley.

Pan's Girl is a celebratory romp through inner and outer realms while engaging in self-exploration through writings of Jack Parsons, Dion Fortune, Aleister Crowley, Arthur Machen, as well as other writers and poets from different backgrounds with the hopes of reconnecting to Nature and unearthing the roots of personal as well as societal shadows. Come. Let us explore this Kingdom together and discover what Pan means to each of us. Warning-- Meeting Pan was said to cause terror, madness or death...or maybe even finding ourselves emerging with the new life of Spring. Either way, may it be an unforgettable adventure.

Many know that W.B.Yeats was a poet, but how many are aware of his esoteric writings and his work with the Anti-Self? Yeats tells us that we "...must move in cycles, running the whole gamut of conflicts and reversal, shuttling back and forth between contraries, between subjectivity and objectivity, between will and fate, between chance and choice, between thought and passion." In this book, we will explore his ideas as well as his techniques. We will also take a look at how psychologists view the Anti-Self and compare it to how an occultist or artist might approach it. From there, we'll experiment with letter writing to our Anti-Self to unravel what is either helpful, hidden or defeating in our lives."The other self, the anti-self or the antithetical self, as one may choose to name it, comes but to those who are no longer deceived, whose passion is reality."--Arnica Silentia Lunare. But in truth, there is nothing more terrifying than seeing one's true face and Yeats wrote about the masks people wear and the ordeals that we must inevitably face, because without doing so, we'll never traverse the gulf that divides us from who we and what we are and who and what we think we are. And that might lead to discovering our purpose and how best to create our destiny, though we learn "why there is a deep enmity between a man and his destiny, and why a man loves nothing but his destiny."Yeats writes: "[You said] You were my opposite. By association with one another we should each become more complete...if I would write a letter to you...and afterwards answer it in your name you would overshadow me in my turn & answer all my doubts..." Let's see how it works out.

Come, my Shining Ones, celebrate the Aeon of Horus, with meditations and rituals devoted to Horus using various sacred texts from The Book of Gates, The Pyramid Texts, The Egyptian Book of the Dead, The Demotic Magical Papyrus of London and Leiden (The Leyden Papyrus), and the Holy Books of Thelema...all in connection to symbols such as the Uraei, to share the mysteries from ancient Egypt to today, one aeon to the next. 93/93

An epistle for my imaginary daughter, as a reflection and symbolic journey for men and women into paths of the High Priestess and the Empress, the Divine Feminine, with influences from Aleister Crowley, Kenneth Grant, Dion Fortune and a selection of Gnostic texts to instruct my child in the New Aeon.

Netta Fornario always held a special fascination for me and it bothers me that people only remember her for how she died, and not for the Mysteries she served, and sadly her life's work has now faded to a few surviving pieces under the name of Mac Tyler. Knowing that she loved a fairy opera called The Immortal Hour, I wanted to create for her, her own story to star in. Even as this book encompasses two separate stories, one about Netta in the past and another about a writer in the future trying to unravel this enigma, it is a tale about what happens when worlds gently touch or violently collide together, such as cultural and/or religious oppositions, emotion and reason, real and unreal, fact and fiction, love and hate, life and death, and ultimately how we seek to reconcile or transcend them. As what happens any time I ever try to write about an Initiate, and she was a Co-Mason as well as a member of Alpha et Omega, the story is never what I set out to write and it becomes something more. This book is unusual because it seeks to hide fact in fiction and fiction in fact, and only in the interplay from one world to the other do we sometimes find what we are seeking.

This book is about exploring ourselves through the 10 vessels (X Vasa), which is knowing each part of ourselves by way of exploring the symbolism of the Tree of Life and the 50 Gates as a map to navigate our inner self. I invite you to accompany me on this journey, where we will approach the 50 Gates in 2 ways, one as a Gnostic Dialogue, and the other as a meditation on the "Operation of Shekinah," where Shekinah as the daughter guides us up the tree, first walking through the doorway of Tau and upward to the 49th gate to the mother, to Babalon, where we will stop and regard the 50th in silence. Along the way, we'll be looking at writings and rituals from Aleister Crowley to find our starting point.
