Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

 

The secret writings of this mystical order reveal the keys to astral

projection, clairvoyance, and other magical practices. 

The present-day revival of the practice of magic owes much to the Hermetic

Order of the Golden Dawn, the fin de siecle secret society that

rediscovered many occult traditions dating back to antiquity. Prominent

adepts of the Golden Dawn, whose members included W. B. Yeats and Aleister

Crowley, preserved these traditions in manuscripts to be circulated among

initiates of the Order. These documents, known as the Flying Rolls, reveal

secrets of astral projection, clairvoyance, exorcism, alchemy, and other

magical practices and occult philosophy. Many of the Flying Rolls escaped

print and remained secret for some time, only slowly being tracked down

over the years. Here, Francis King presents all the previously unpublished

Flying Rolls. 

Renowned occultist Francis King includes previously unpublished secret

writings of the Golden Dawn in this important collection.

These are essential texts for practitioners of magical techniques, and

of great interest to any student of Western occultism.
