Review
“People seem to be aware of the importance of exercising their bodies, but too often they look in all the wrong places for mental stimulation. This book makes people realize how exciting their minds can be. The exercises described in the book are not only fun, but also provide ways to keep your senses open to all sorts of cues.”– Kathy Keeton, Founder of Omni Magazine “With interest growing in the training of the intuitive– the right side of the brain– it is timely that a book like this be available to a wide audience. Books such as this one serve as guides to enhance the breadth of human imagination. It was a particular pleasure and surprise to me to find this work not only helpful and useful but sensually pleasing as well.”– Ralph Blum, author of The New Book of Runes “I have read Dr. Keith Harary’s and Pamela Weintraub’s new book on out-of-body experiences and am eagerly awaiting my very next free period of time when I can try the methods they suggest. There must be a lot of people like me who are very interested in reports of this experience but, rather ruefully, have not yet had the experience themselves.”– Dr. Raymond Moody, author of Life After Life

Six Outstanding Lectures by Rudolf Steiner

The title of this book tries to be comprehensive in describing 6 very different public lectures by Rudolf Steiner, the philosopher, scientist, seer and educator who died in 1925. They are somewhat difficult to read, but very well worth it. The titles of the lectures are illuminating: “Free Will, Immortality”;”The Historical Evolution of Humanity”;”The Supersensible Being of Man”;”The Nature of Anthroposophy”;The Mystery of the Human Being”;The Scinece of Spirit and the Social Question.” Of all the lectures it is the last one that may be the most important one for today. It explains the failure of Robert Owen’s social experiment in New Harmony, Indiana. To be practical, Dr. Steiner explains that the main social law must be understood and followed. The success of civilizations (and ours) depends upon to what extent people follow this law.

The Illustrated Guide to Witchcraft is a journey into the mysteries and practices of witches dating from the beginning of history. One of the oldest religions, witchcraft’s popularity is increasing as we approach the Millennium. Its dark secrets have been retained over the centuries in a “closed shop” tradition.

Even in today’s world of high technology and scientific discovery, no other religion conjures up such fearful apprehension as does witchcraft. Even persecution has failed to subdue enthusiasm and witches now number tens of thousands throughout the world. These neo-Pagans have become the fastest growing religion.

As witchcraft never openly seeks recruits and outsiders are suspect, it became necessary in the writing of this book for the author to participate in covens, interview witches and gain the acceptance needed to take photographs. As a result, The Illustrated Guide to Witchcraft contains photos of ceremonies and traditional sacred working tools which have never been witnessed before.

In the Illustrated Guide to Witchcraft, solitary, hereditary witches and High Priests and Priestesses of covens have spoken openly about their lives, thier Gods, thier beliefs and the mysterious power they possess in the magic of spell casting.

Amazon Review:

I first read this some time ago when investigating Wicca. I still think it’s one of the most candid and accessible reads for the newcomer to the topic. Given the number of not-so-good, me-too books out there on the topic that we saw published in the 90s, it stands out even more.

Its strengths are a matter-of-fact style, a balanced and pretty unbiased portrayal that doesn’t try to make a political statement, and the large volume of information it offers. It is a sophisticated book that talks a lot about history, about initiatory experience, and about perceptions of divinity. The only flaw I can readily find is that it is a bit dry; just as its cover doesn’t look like Tinker Bell, neither is the style. I can hardly mark Crowley down for this, but it’s worth mentioning because it could affect the reader’s interest.

Will appeal most strongly to the serious seeker with mature tastes in reading who is looking to be informed rather than entertained.
