De oude sjamanen waren behalve mystici en magiërs ook wetenschappers. Ze brachten veel tijd door in de natuur. Ze bestudeerden de dieren en leerden van alles over hen. Zo kon hun kracht vollediger ontwaken en konden ze hun boodschappen nauwkeuriger interpreteren. Ze hielpen anderen de spirituele boodschap of de spirituele rol van het dier te begrijpen. Tegenwoordig kunnen we dat zelf doen. Hoezeer we ons ook in beschaving hebben verpakt, we zijn nog steeds deel van de natuur, en de natuur spreekt voortdurend tot ons. Wat we moeten leren is hoe we dieren op een nieuwe manier kunnen ervaren. Dit werkboek zal je leiden bij deze wonderbaarlijke ervaring.

Dieren kunnen ons veel leren, bijvoorbeeld hoe je je moet aanpassen ; om te overleven, of hoe te reageren op ziekten. Dieren herinneren ons aan het enorme reservoir van mogelijkheden dat in ons schuilt, maar we kunnen pas van ze leren als we weten hoe we met ze moeten communiceren. Ted Andrews beschrijft in zijn Luisteren naar dieren hoe je met dieren als totems en spirituele wezens moet omgaan, door het bestuderen van hun natuurlijk gedrag. Hij geeft technieken voor het duiden van voortekenen en onthult de verborgen mythische krachten van tientallen zoogdieren, vogels, insecten en reptielen.
– Ontdek welk dier bij je past.
– Benut de verborgen krachten in jezelf, zoals die in je totemdier weerspiegeld zijn.
– Roep de bescherming in van je totemdier.
– Lees de boodschappen en voorteken,; die de natuur je geeft.

Applied Magic is a selection of Dion Fortune’s writings on the practical applications of magical and esoteric techniques. The whole of existence is not just what our five senses can comprehend. There is a whole kingdom of mind and spirit that comes from another plane of existence — the cosmos — where mystics and poets have gone to reach another kind of knowing. Everyone has the ability to access these invisible planes of existence — and to bring themselves into harmony with the great Cosmic Forces. Fortune also discusses practical applications, the group mind, the psychology of ritual, the three kinds of reality, and people who have been involved in esoteric study. She provides invaluable guidance to anyone intent on increasing inner awareness. She declares, “Esoteric tradition admits of no exclusiveness; 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”. This edition includes a glossary that defines terms used in the study of the Western Mystery Tradition when she was teaching her group in London, a new introduction by Gareth Knight, and an index.

A this unique collaboration of two magical practitioners and teachers, presented with a valuable and up-to-date text on the practice of ritual or ceremonial magic as a practical, spiritual, and psychic discipline.

Each chapter is supplemented and expanded by a companion chapter on the same subject, by Gareth Knight.

Seanachai: Modern Celtic Fairy Stories
Over the last 15 years, Janet Farrar (best known for her books on Witchcraft) has gained a reputation as a storyteller among those who have seen her perform in this role at festivals and conferences in the US and Europe. After much demand, she has released some of her favourite stories on DVD. Produced and directed by Gavin Bone, her partner, this set of Modern Celtic Fairy stories, many written by Janet, includes scenes of Ireland, the land of the mists and fairy folk, set to music invoking the spirit of the Celtic Lands. These stories include:

• Onessa: One of a Janet’s own stories. An ancient Goddess of Scotland is banished by a Christian monk and becomes a well-known legend, which passes down the ages, waiting to be awakened.
• Peter Kagan and the Wind: A traditional story passed down by the fishing folk of the Celtic Isles. A Selkie – a seal woman – marries a fisherman who challenges the North Wind and loses. She makes the ultimate sacrifice for her love.
• John O’Malley and the Banshee: A story by Janet. An Irish American expects to be carried away by his beautiful family Banshee when he dies but gets the shock of his life – or death – when she appears and admonishes his for his behaviour!
• Jack Be Nimble: A story by Janet’s father, rewritten by Janet. A young welsh boy has a visitation during a fever. As an old man, the visitor returns when he is dying, and is not what he first seemed to be!
• As I was going to St. Ives: A short traditional mystery rhyme from Cornwall. ‘Kits, Cats, Sacks, and Wives…’
