New Falcon Publications,U.S. Diary of the Antichrist
Book SynopsisDiary of the Antichrist is the written record of the Spirit of Life of the Antichrist, whose time is now at hand. Unlike other books about the Antichrist, this book comes from a High Initiate of prominent Occult Orders. It is not the false work of a mere man; it was rather composed by an Alien Intelligence that telepathically directed the mind and hand of the scribe while he was experiencing altered states of consciousness. Also in this book are the Scriptures of the Antichrist, as well as the Qabalah of the Antichrist.

Cornell University Press Trafficking with Demons
Book SynopsisTrafficking with Demons explores how magic was perceived, practiced, and prohibited in western Europe during the first millennium CE. Through the overlapping frameworks of religion, ritual, and gender, Martha Rampton connects early Christian reckonings with pagan magic to later doctrines and dogmas. Challenging established views on the role of women in ritual magic during this period, Rampton provides a new narrative of the ways in which magic was embedded within the foundational assumptions of western European society, informing how people understood the cosmos, divinity, and their own Christian faith.As Rampton shows, throughout the first Christian millennium, magic was thought to play a natural role within the functioning of the universe and existed within a rational cosmos hierarchically arranged according to a great chain of being. Trafficking with the demons of the lower air was the essense of magic. Interactions with those demons occurred both in hTrade Review"Trafficking with Demons offers a comprehensive overview of how early medieval magic was perceived. By offering an alternative interpretation of the period, Rampton has filled a gap in recent scholarship on the gendering of early medieval magic practices." -- Catherine Rider, Senior Lecturer in the Department of History, University of Exeter, and author of Magic and Religion in Medieval England"Martha Rampton argues that the greatest change to magic in a thousand years occurred when Carolingian elites discounted the effectiveness of many magical rites, especially those practiced by women. This sweeping book is an important contribution to the history of magic and of women in the first millennium." -- Michael Bailey, Professor and Director of Graduate Education , Iowa State University, and associate editor of Magic, Ritual, and WitchcraftTable of ContentsIntroduction Part 1: Studying Magic 1.

New Falcon Publications,U.S. Dream Illuminati: A Global Revolution Takes Wing:
Book SynopsisRevised and expanded edition. "I think this novel speaks very eloquently for itself -- to those who are ready to read between the lines. This book concerns dreams of flight, and the achievement of flight. Historically, dreams of flying appeared in the collective unconscious before the reality of flight existed in technology, and it seems plausible that if we understood our dreams better we would use our technology more wisely. Our machines manifest our dreams in matter crafted to coherence, and a psychoanalysis of our culture could easily derive from an examination of how we use science to materialise our fantasies and nightmares." - From the Introduction

New Falcon Publications,U.S. Neo-Something Doom Puzzle
Book SynopsisNeo-Something Doom Puzzle is a playfully evil and sometimes violent book. It tells the tales of several young hipsters and losers struggling for stability in a carnivorous universe. Neuroses and bad luck weave together the ambitious journeys of the multiple protagonists. Hopes and dreams are taken apart and perversely re-arranged in a universe full of manipulative bosses, occult horror, awkward romance, perverse desires, morbid absurdity, living symbolism, and adventure. Fast-paced prose and abstract story-structure add layers of meaning to an experiment in narrative form. Sam is a naive and neurotic young man who is bullied by his family. He has a ghost-limb and a dream to create video games. When he gets an internship at a video game studio his bosses take advantage of his lack of experience, using him to spy on each other. He learns they are in over their heads in occult pursuits, which becomes bad news for Sam. Meanwhile Sam''s deranged family won''t let him be. Ted is a drug-damaged introvert who tries to rescue old friends from a haunted mountain during a skydiving misadventure. He discovers a world full of monsters and magic where subtle meaning manifests itself as discrete entities, time plays strange tricks on lost wanderers, and personalities are mere toys for inexplicable forces. He also explores the nature of evolving relationships. Other characters pursue their own ambitions via violent orgies, dangerous job-hunts, and team-building exercises gone-awry. Alongside the hostility of capitalist predators these sad heroes also meet creatures from the void, manifestations of the universe''s unknowableness, and puzzles of cosmic power. This book depicts hipsters and young professionals who find their struggles and desires are just a thin veil over a gaping, mysterious horror show. It symbolizes the fleeting nature of human life contrasted with the ancient force of the raw universe which generates and dissolves all people. Strengths and weaknesses take on lives of their own as the characters are forced to learn the hard way. If somebody is pulling the strings that weave these stories together, it''s hard to see who, and harder still to see why.

Book SynopsisIn this collection of occult poems Parry''s alter-ego Caliban muses on sexuality, seclusion and Shakespeare. Moreover, by trying to capture the dark dwarf''s metaphysical lyrics moment by moment, the author slowly confronts himself as a willing prisoner on the magical island of violence and desire. After all, Caliban would claim that neither Browning nor Nietzsche had fully grasped the ethics of redemption which can only be found in unadulterated selfhood.

Mandrake of Oxford Tankhem: Seth & Egyptian Magick, Second Edition
Book SynopsisThe Typhonian deity Seth was once worshipped in Ancient Egypt. Followers of later schools obliterated Seth''s monuments, demonised and neglected his cult. A possible starting point in the quest for the ''hidden god'' is an examination of the life of Egyptian King Seti I (''He of Seth'') also known as Sethos. When looking for an astral temple that included all of the ancient Egyptian gods and goddesses, the temple of Seti I proved itself worthy of examination. Many secrets began to reveal themselves. The essence of the real philosophy of the Sethian and indeed what Satanism is, stems from the author''s astral wanderings in this temple. The temple is a real place, and like any temple no part of its design is accidental. It is a record in stone and paint of the Egyptian wisdom. It also fits quite well with the Thelemic mythos and tells lots of interesting things about the ancient Seth cult -- if you have the eye to see it.

Mandrake of Oxford Song of Meri-Khem: A Pilgrim's Journey
Book SynopsisIn writing this poem I have attempted to cut through so much of what we now think of as Ancient Egypt, and only the bare bones will remain. Symbolic figureheads such as Osiris and Amon will be discussed, but not elevated, and favoured centres of apparent importance or popularity will be by-passed. This will not be a book for those who wish to play tourist, dropping off here for a quick sensation, or stopping there for an imagined photo-shoot, it will be an experience for all those who wish to embrace the origin and notion of Set, and Set's values. In recording the mythical life of Set, we have applauded him. The strength and warmth of his intellect demand similar warmth in his dramatic performance throughout ancient Egyptian history. To adopt an attitude of detachment, particularly towards the ancient and unknown, can bar from sight those many scenes glimpsed by the historian who approaches the role of reconstructing an era with sympathy, insight and understanding. Neither the truth nor the equilibrium of scholarship is disturbed by controlled imagination and honest praise of this much-maligned Egyptian god. We are portraying the mythological concept and personality of Set not in order to worship a hero, but to recognise him as a leader and a hero. Set strives to take his stand against 5,000 years of a 'drift of history' with the introduction of Osirion and Amonite tradition, and a preconditioning before being replaced by Christianity.

Mandrake of Oxford Supernatural Assault in Ancient Egypt: Seth, Evil
Book SynopsisYou are in your bed. It is dark, you hear footsteps coming up the stairs and into your room. There is someone there -- a presence. They lie on you or beside you, gripping you tightly, crushing you into the bed. You can''t move. There may be a sound, a grunt or a strange smell. Time passes, you are paralysed with fear. Eventually the entity changes, expanding or contracting, moving away from you, sinking to the floor. With a great effort of will you manage to move the tip of your finger, then the hand until movement returns to your whole body and the experience ends. You have been visited by the old ''hag''. Dreams, the real theatre or perhaps battlefield of magick, influenced by cosmic tides that ebb and flow through us as they did the ancient Egyptians. Over the millennia we have lost contact with these tides, and stand alienated from Nature. To restore that first ''Eden'' we must undertake an exercise in the archaeology of knowledge. We must reconstruct the ancient Egyptian Wheel of the Year, revealing archaic, pre-dynastic Mysteries, the Lunar Mysteries of Horus and Seth.

An intensive and lengthy occult praxis is entered in which dreams and dreaming practices are developed.

Book Synopsis"When the world is pregnant with lies, a secret long hidden will be revealed." -- an Odinist Prophecy. Just like the Cannibal Within, a chance encounter, although this time in the famous Atlantis bookshop, blossomed into a dialogue between the author and the anonymous adept of Odin. Called an "occult religion" for adepts, a "creed of iron" for warriors, and a "secret society" for higher men and women who value "knowledge, freedom and power", the Odin Brotherhood honours the Gods and Goddesses of the Norse pantheon. This non-fiction book details the legends, the rituals, and the Mysteries of an ancient and enigmatic movement.

Mandrake of Oxford NakedTantra: Record of a magical year
Book SynopsisThere are many books on how to do magick, but not so many with stories about actually doing it and what happens. NAKEDTANTRA lays bare the inner states of the two brave souls involved in this extended magical work. An experiment, two people, two countries, one mind, experimenting in tantra meta-magick, cosmic astral travel to the land of no boundaries, looking for the doors of perception. Of necessity the contents of this grimoire might be considered erotic. And, with that thought in mind, it might also be that the reader is occasionally aroused by our story as it progresses. Some might find this an unwanted intrusion, into what is otherwise an exploration of a magical world. Others we surmise, will take this in good part, accepting that, a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down. To those who do not share these sensibilities, and are unmoved by what you are about to read, we offer our sincerest apologies.

Golden Hoard Press Ltd Michael Psellus on the Operation of Dæmons
Book SynopsisMichael Constantine Psellus (1018-1178 C.E) was one of the most notable writers and philosophers of the Byzantine era. The Byzantine domain was effectively the eastern Greek speaking part of the Roman Empire centred on Byzantium (Constantinople, modern Istanbul) which split off from the Latin West in 364 C.E. Its intellectual legacies helped lay the foundations for the Italian Renaissance. It was the fall of Constantinople in 1453 that released a tide of Greek reading scholars into Western Europe, particularly Venice. With them came much of the magical and Hermetic knowledge which the Greeks in their turn had inherited from the Egyptians. The Key of Solomon was one such text. It is therefore essential to the understanding of such magical texts that one understands exactly how the Byzantines understood the nature of daemons. Psellus forms the bridge between the ancient world, Byzantine Greek, and the grimoire conception of the nature of daemons. Hailing from Constantinople, Psellus' career was an illustrious and practical one, serving as a political advisor to a succession of emperors, playing a decisive role in the transition of power between various monarchs. He became the leading professor at the newly founded University of Constantinople, bearing the honorary title, 'Consul of the Philosophers'. He was the driving force behind the university curriculum reform designed to emphasise the Greek classics, especially Homeric literature. Psellus is credited with the shift from Aristotelian thought to the Platonist tradition, and was adept in politics, astronomy, medicine, music, theology, jurisprudence, physics, grammar and history.

Book SynopsisOne day, Christopher Hyatt and his friend Rick were enjoying the day and 'tossing back a few,' as Rick would say. So, naturally, they broke out the video camera to conduct an 'interview.' The result is this fun-filled, straight-from-the-shoulder and definitely gossipy DVD. Hyatt discusses his lineage from Aleister Crowley; S. Jason Black as galley slave; his relationship with Israel Regardie; his rather 'unfulfilling' history with the OTO, sailing for AIDS research; the direction of his current work; his favorite cognac; the future of Magick, and a whole bunch more.

Oxford University Press Curse Tablets and Binding Spells from the Ancient World
Book SynopsisIn the ancient Graeco-Roman world, it was a common practice to curse an enemy or rival by writing an incantation on a tablet and dedicating it to a god or spirit. More than a thousand such texts, written between the fifth century BC and the fifth century AD, have been discovered in places ranging from North Africa to England, and from Syria to Spain. Until now, however, there has been no English translation of these tablets and indeed the texts themselves have remained virtually unknown. This volume makes these fascinating texts available for the first time. A substantial introduction supplies the full cultural, social, and historical context for the texts. The selected translations, arranged thematically, are fully annotated and accompanied by extensive commentary. Reflecting a wide range of social occasions, including lawsuits, love affairs, business competition, and horse-races, the tablets open a window into the hearts and minds of ordinary people, shedding light on a dimension of classical society in which historians today are increasingly interested.Trade ReviewThis welcome reprint in paperback format will make the study more widely available * Journal for the Study of the Old Testament *

Oxford University Press, USA The Mind Possessed The Cognition of Spirit Possession in an AfroBrazilian Religious Tradition
Book SynopsisIn The Mind Possessed, Emma Cohen considers how the psychological systems undergirding spirit concepts are activated in real-world settings.Trade ReviewWho is dancing before me: my neighbor or a powerful spirit? Where do minds go when the body is occupied by someone else? The Mind Possessed details the colorfulness of spirit possession while rendering it understandable. This gracefully written book potently models how the cognitive sciences should impact the study of culture and religion. Cohen demonstrates that a sophisticated understanding of human minds enriches anthropology and religious studies with scientific insights. Simultaneously she shows that careful ethnography can highlight questions for psychological sciences that might otherwise go unnoticed, in this case, complex issues concerning human minds and bodies. * Justin L. Barrett, Senior Researcher, Institute of Cognitive and Evolutionary Anthropology, University of Oxford, author of Why Would Anyone Believe in God?The Mind Possessed is an extraordinary accomplishment.
