Every method is explicit and clearly described. "Each of us has a Guardian Angel---a companion and lover who waits just behind the images that flood our minds during sleep or reverie.

PsyberMagick: Advanced Ideas in Chaos Magick
by Peter J. Carroll
REVISED AND EXPANDED. A witty and iconoclastic commentary on magick and modern occult subculture by one of the founders of Chaos Magick. PsyberMagick contains astonishing, controversial and revolutionary ideas on the theory and practice of magick, the structure of the universe and the nature of the mind. It holds many surprises as it challenges many of the conventional assumptions and paradigms of magick. Filled with practical techniques, PsyberMagick give you the means to undo the fallacy of "being" and reach "sideways" into imaginary time to accomplish magic(k). Done in the style of Aleister Crowley's Book of Lies, and humorously illustrated by S. Jason Black, this book is a must for all Chaoist and Western magicians.

The Pseudonomicon - What is The Pseudonomicon? It's Cthulhu Mythos. It's Cthulhu Madness! It's a Cthulhu Pathworking!! First published in a very limited edition in 1994, and reprinted only once since, The Pseudonomicon has been extremely difficult to find. By special arrangement with Dagon Productions, we have brought it back in this revised and expanded edition. The author says: "Disclaimer: It is generally agreed by experienced magicians that working with the Cthulhu Mythos is dangerous due to the high risk of obsession, personality disintegration or infestation by parasitic shells. Whilst giving this opinion due consideration, I have decided to release this material since, before the throne of Azathoth, questions of who is sane and who is mad become inconsequential." and: "Each god brings its own madness. To know the god — to be accepted by it, to feel its mysteries — well you have to let that madness wash over you — and through you. This isn't in the books of magic. Why? For one thing, it's all too easily forgotten, and for an other, you have to find it out for yourself. And for those who would sanitize magic, whitening out the wildness with explanations borrowed from pop psychology or science — well, madness is something that we still fear — the great taboo. So why did I choose Cthulhu — High Priest of the Great Old Ones — lying dreaming "death's dream" in the sunken city, forgotten through layers of time and water? It sounds so simple to say that I merely heard his "call" — but I did. Gods do not, generally, have a lot to say, but what they do say, is worth listening to." With a new Introduction and a completely new, and greatly expanded section on Banishing.

Condensed Chaos: An Introduction to Chaos Magic - Condensed Chaos provides a practical introduction to Chaos Magic, one of the fastest growing areas of Western Occultism.

All acts of personal/collective liberation are magical acts. Magic leads us into exhilaration and ecstasy; into insight and understanding; into changing ourselves and the world in which we participate. Through magic we may come to explore the possibilities of freedom.

The Montauk Files: Unearthing the Phoenix Conspiracy - Beginning with the infamous 1943 Philadelphia Experiment in radar invisibility, the path leads to modern-day scraps of evidence left at a desolate Air Force Station at the eastern tip of Long Island--scraps of mind-control experiments and other questionable activities that were undertaken even after the base had officially ceased to function. Connections emerge that weave an incredible tapestry ending with the author's personal involvement in a way which could never have been imagined. "It ceased to become an objective matter and instead became a subjective, and quite personal journey into my inner fears and growth. The mythical beast of Phoenix raised its head during my journey, pushing just hard enough to let me know it's alive and well. More to the point, alive and well-cared for. Synchronicity, the unusual connection of oneself to outside events through coincidence and happenstance, is very much a part of Phoenix. Do not be surprised if, by the process of digesting this book, your own vision of Phoenix rises to confront you in a manner that right now you cannot even begin to imagine."

Angel Tech: A Modern Shaman's Guide to Reality Selection - Angel Tech is a comprehensive compendium of insights and techniques for the direct application of Dr. Timothy Leary's Eight-Circuit Brain model for Intelligence Increase. What Dr. Leary posited as theory (Exo-Psychology) and Dr. Robert Anton Wilson brilliantly demonstrated in sociopolitical, mathematical and intellectual proofs (Prometheus Rising), Antero Alli has extended into tangible tasks, exercises, rituals and meditations towards an embodied realization of brain change through first-hand experience. Angel Tech challenges the reader to redefine "Intelligence" according to hir own direct experiences and finally, dares us to live accordingly. In print for over twenty years, the Third Revised Edition of this classic "performance" book has been updated and revised based on the author's most recent research results.

Pacts with the Devil: A Chronicle of Sex, Blasphemy & Liberation - For the first time, a genuine manual of the dreaded "left-hand path." Braving the new Witchcraft Panic that has swept the world, S. Jason Black and Christopher S. Hyatt have written a book that places the Western magical tradition — and the Western psyche — in perspective. Sweeping aside both the historical fabrications of "neo-paganism" and the rampant mental illness of the religious right, Black and Hyatt explore history, psychology and anthropology to reveal the true "secret doctrine" of Western culture. This work confronts the reader with his own fears and inhibitions — and carries him beyond. Comprehensively illustrated, this volume contains a detailed history of European "Black Magic" and includes new editions of 17th and 18th century Grimoires with detailed instructions for their use. Extensively illustrated.

Rebels & Devils: The Psychology of Liberation - "When he put the gun to my head at 16, I left home..." So begins Christopher Hyatt's "Prologue" to this remarkable book. This third revised edition brings together some of the most talented, controversial and rebellious people of our time. Many, such as Timothy Leary, William S. Burroughs, Robert Anton Wilson, Osho and Aleister Crowley, are world-famous. Other contributors, such as S. Jason Black, Joseph Matheny and Peter J. Carroll, though highly accomplished in their own fields, are not as well-known. Still others are lesser-known — for now. But, every contributor, in every article, in every aspect of their lives, has had but one focus: to bring freedom to their world. In all of human history, the essence of the independent mind has been the need to think and act according to standards from within, not without: To follow one's own path, not that of the crowd. Inevitably it follows that anyone with an independent mind must become "one who resists or opposes an authority or established convention": a rebel. Usually rebellion is done so quietly that no one notices. But, when others — especially others with power — recognize an individual's 'disobedience,' the rebel becomes the REBEL. And, if enough people come to agree with — and follow — the REBEL, then he becomes a DEVIL. Until, of course, still more people agree. And then, finally, there is...GREATNESS.

The Infernal Texts: Nox & Liber Koth - Both NOX and Liber Koth were briefly published as booklets in the mid-1990's by Logos Press and have remained in high demand ever since--especially by those interested in Chaos Magic. Now, Falcon has made them available in a single volume. NOX includes 22 Infernal Texts from the Order of Nine Angles, the Werewolf Order, and the Esoteric Order of Dagon by such notables as Phil Hine, Anton Long and Stephen Sennitt. The diverse topics range from "Satanism, Blasphemy & The Black Mass" to "Lovecraft & The Dark Gods"; from "Are You a Werewolf?" to "The Rite of the Dark Star." Liber Koth is a book of invocations. It utilizes Lovecraftian symbology including Yog-Sothoth, Nyarlathotep, Cthulhu, Tsathogua and others. As the section on Azathoth says: "No one can undergo this experience unchanged. It is the culmination of the circle manifestation which the wheel of chaos (Koth) represents." Third Revised Edition. Extensively Illustrated.

Israel Regardie & The Philosopher's Stone: The Alchemical Arts Brought Down to Earth - In this book, Dr. Lisiewski reveals the role Dr. Israel Regardie played in the world of Practical Laboratory Alchemy. Not the world of idle speculation and so-called inner alchemy, but the realm of the test tube and the Soxhlet Extractor. Revealed for the first time are Regardie's own private alchemical experiments, his intense interaction with Frater Albertus of the Paracelsus Research Society, and later, with the author himself. You will learn of the first meeting between Regardie and Frater Albertus; their involvement with the Rosicrucian Order; their years of struggle in Alchemy; and the alchemical work they and the author explored. Such work includes preparation of the Ancient Planetary and Antimony Tinctures, the Herbal Stone, and the darkly fantastic processes of miniature animals and the Homunculus. Israel Regardie & The Philosopher's Stone is the definitive work on Israel Regardie's virtually unknown role in the practice of the Secret Art and Science that is Laboratory Alchemy, while revealing processes in the practical application of this occult work that have never appeared in print before!

Aleister Crowley's Illustrated Goetia: Sexual Evocation - "Goetia [refers to] all the operations of that Magick which deals with gross, malignant or unenlightened forces." Goetia is sometimes thought of as a wild card, something that can get out of control, something which expresses the operator's lower desires to control others and improve his own personal life. And, in fact, this potential loss of control, this danger, the desire for self improvement and great power is exactly what attracts many people to Goetia while horrifying and repelling others. Crowley's Goetia is brought to life with vivid illustrations of the demons. Commentary by DuQuette and Hyatt bring the ancient arts into the modern day.

Enochian World of Aleister Crowley: Enochian Sex Magick - Many consider Enochiana the most powerful and least understood system of Western Occult practice. This book makes it truly accessible and easy to understand. Crowley's work 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. And now, for the first time, the reader is provided with instructions that bridge the gap between the material and spiritual worlds by integrating Enochiana with Sex Magick. Mr. DuQuette and Dr. Hyatt bring over forty years of practical experience in the field to show you how to start using this powerful system right now. Illustrated. This REVISED EDITION includes a new Table of Illustrations, improved graphics (especially the all-important "The Four Great Watch-Towers and the Black Cross"), an improved and easier-to-read Enochian Dictionary, and many text corrections.

New Wings for Daedalus: Wilhelm Reich, His Theory & Techniques - Though Francis Israel Regardie (1907–1985) is best known for his writings on the Western magical/mystical system known as the Golden Dawn, that is not how he made his living. He was a Doctor of Chiropractic under which license he practiced the psychotherapeutic methods of Wilhelm Reich, M.D. (1897–1957). Reichian Therapy was a revolutionary approach to dealing with psychological issues. Reich, who had once been an associate of Sigmund Freud, had developed important extensions to psychological theory and the therapy methods of the day. But in a clinical setting he and others were continually faced with the intractability of many patients against the therapeutic methods then in use. He came to believe that this "armoring" was not simply a "head issue," but was elaborated in actual physical armoring of the musculature. In time he developed a novel, and highly successful, approach to psychotherapy: rather than just talk with his patients, he manipulated and attacked the muscular armor directly. But today we see almost nothing of his methods except in Christopher Hyatt's Radical Undoing and Alexander Lowen's "Bioenergetics". First written in the 1950s and updated through the 1970s, this never-before-published tour de force provides a masterful description of both Reich’s theory and clinical practice. It is an indispensable tool for anyone interested in one of the most effective psychotherapeutic methods ever devised.

The Eye in the Triangle: An Interpretation of Aleister Crowley - Unlike the many "revisionist" biographies of Crowley which would have you believe that he was second cousin to some Christian saint, here is an objective biographical study of Crowley written by someone who lived and worked intimately with him. Dr. Regardie observed "The Great Beast" at close quarters while serving as his personal secretary and wrote The Eye in the Triangle many years later, after long contemplation. Regardie combines the psychological insight afforded by his professional training as a Reichian analyst with his grasp of Crowley's magical personality. First-rate! This new edition has been completely retypeset for easier reading.

Urban Voodoo: A Beginner's Guide to Afro-Caribbean Magic - This book fills a long-standing need in the literature: Voodoo, Santeria, and Macumba as practiced today in cities throughout the Western world. It is not another history or sociological study, but a candid personal account by two who came to "the religion" from the outside. It includes descriptions of the phenomena triggered by Voodoo practice, divination techniques, spells and a method of self-initiation. Illustrated.

Howlings from the Pit: A Practical Handbook of Medieval Magic, Goetia & Theurgy - Howlings from the Pit may be Dr. Lisiewski's finest work to date. For both the beginning and advanced students of occultism, it lays bare what practical magic is all about. A veritable modern magical "grammar," Howlings takes the reader step-by-step through the mental, psychological and physical preparations required by the "Fathers of the Grimoires", the authors of the classical books on ceremonial magic which include The Heptameron, The Lesser and Greater Keys of Solomon, The Sword of Moses and others. Lisiewski clarifies dozens of technical points critical to successful magical operations, including the most feared and desired one: evoking a spirit to physical manifestation. Alchemy, mysticism and even modern Science of Mind and New Thought are all examined in their relationship to Medieval magic. In addition, Mark Stavish's editing and extensive commentary on the original text, places the material in the context of the magical and philosophical traditions of both East and West, thereby adding valuable insight into the nature of magic as a living tradition.
