Quest Magic
from
the blurb:
For hundreds of years an old faith had to be foxy. It was being harried by a new, organized religion that had political ambitions. So it turned to symbols and shielded its truths under the mask of conversion. The light was hidden and became known as Occultism.
Today, some people find history more existing than life and they turn Occultism into lurid entertainment. At heart they like cloak-and-dagger intrigue so the mythical padding and the external display have become more important than truth. They are locked in mystery and have lost the key.
In this book it is Amado Crowley's task to peel off the ornament and dissect the claptrap. He guides the newcomer towards an understanding of fear, self and motivation. He demonstrates that true, radical Occultism should play a meaningful social role. Magic is to do with people and power. It can be used to help individuals and couples, or communities and the world.
Quest Magic shows that Occultism is a great deal more than merely a hobby for eccentrics: it is a religion, a spiritual map and a guide that helps strangers find their way.
