As a magician, I must choose carefully which grimoires I dedicate my time to. A Working sometimes can take years to complete, and life is short.
Some Left-Hand Path initiations are part of what I call High Risk Spirituality (HRS). It is HRS because you are in contact with archetypes who are chaotic and who can take a piece of you if you let them. In fact, they do. This kind of work is better done when you have detached yourself from your ego as much as you can, not taking seriously your misfortune or success.
Hands Up! I´ve got a sigil!
Fantasy Novel Review: Dead Set by Martin Shannon
By A. B. Neilly
It is always fun to read about magic, especially if you are an occultist yourself. Martin Shannon's novel is a fantasy novel that mixes some of the classic themes of magic, such as demons, spells, and sigils, and takes them into a ride with one of the funniest characters I have found lately: Gene Law.
