Lon Milo DuQuette Knihy

Autobiografie hvězdy moderního okultismu. Vlastní životopis moderního mága, jenž v současné okultní literatuře představuje hvězdu první velikosti. Na rozdíl od většiny autorů, kteří jen opisují ze starší literatury, je Lon Milo DuQuette praktikujícím mágem a skutečným znalcem oboru. Avšak i když bere magii, kabalu, tarot a západní ezoterickou tradici velmi vážně, snaží se nebrat příliš vážně sebe sama.

Kniha Klíč k Šalomounovu klíči se zabývá legendární postavou krále Šalomouna z historického i esoterního pohledu, přičemž důkladně zkoumá historii řádu templářů a nabízí překvapivé odhalení jejich tajemství. V obřadech zednářů nachází důkazy o možném spojení templářů se zednáři (autor sám je významným členem Cechu). Součástí je i zasvěcený pohled na biblické příběhy Starého zákona, zkoumání jejich historické věrnosti, jakož i seznámení s vnitřními rozpory v církvi v prvních stoletích n. l. V části Šalomounova magie odhaluje a vysvětluje sedm Šalomounových tajemství a v příloze nabízí výňatky ze spisu Clavicula Solomonis Regis (Klíčky krále Šalomouna), uvádějícího některé magické symboly, rekvizity a formule, včetně popisu všech 72 pečetí. Nejedná se o spekulace ve stylu Dana Browna, ale o odbornou práci, která se přesto čte jako napínavý román. Je to jednoduchá, jasná a metodická studie poznání a nezávislého myšlení, která vede čtenáře krok za krokem k pochopení principů magie, ale i k poznání sebe sama.

"A clear and lucid guide to learning the fundamentals of Practical Qabalah"--

A unique and humorous -- and also practical -- approach to the increasingly popular study of Qabalah. This is a seriously funny book Traditional Qabalistic (or Cabalistic, or, indeed, Kabbalistic -- read this book to find out what the difference is...we know you've always wondered) sources tend to be a bit, er, dry. DuQuette spices up the Qabalah and makes it come alive, restoring the joy of learning the fundamentals of this admittedly arcane system by using simple, amusing anecdotes and metaphors. This account, written psuedepigraphically (fictitiously attributed to a supposed authority), allows DuQuette as Rabbi Lamed Ben Clifford to soar to outrageous heights and, when necessary, stand apart from the silliness to highlight the golden eggs of Qabalistic wisdom nested therein. Sure to be a revelation to those who think that learning about the Qabalah needs to be tedious and serious, DuQuette shows that great truths can be transmitted through the medium of laughter. * A Dilettante's Guide to What You Do and Do Not Need to Know to Become a Qabalist .

This book gives the student immediate access to the worlds most powerful, yet misunderstood system of Magick. Crowleys work on the Enochian system was originally published in The Equinox, his 10-volume Journal of Scientific Illuminism. It was the launching pad for all that followed. Originally published in 1912, it rent the veil of the Inner Order of the Golden Dawn and revealed its most precious jewel for all to see. Lon Milo DuQuette is a recognized expert on Enochian Magick who brings four decades of practical experience in the field to show you how to start using this powerful system right now.

In this ground-breaking book, Lon Milo DuQuette explains the symbology of the cards in his Tarot of Ceremonial Magick, a new deck published by U.S> Games. The concept is a breakthrough for occultists of all paths. Each card is illustrated with a list of the Zodiacal, Enochian, Ceremonial, Goetic, Tattvic and Elemental components. DuQuette explains how the cards relate to each other and makes immediately accessible the more difficult conceptual connections the Crowley made so easily. Through DuQuette's wit and decades of practical knowledge of magical practice, students of the arcane arts can gain a whole new level of udnertsnading of how and why magick works.
