Simplified Magic : A Beginners Guide to the New Age Qabala

A wonderful book that gives some much needed basic information to anyone interested in the Qabala from a non-religious background. Ted Andrews shares his wisdom in a practical way that will protect anyone interested in working with the Qabala. He teaches the importance of being balanced and being mindful before starting. It shows a little of his vast knowledge on the subject and is the first of the books he has written on the subject.

Compact and Useful

Many books on the market today are all about wasting time and going on a tangent that the reader doesn't even understand yet. This book is really straight-forward, honest, and sincere. Putting the ideas in a small bite that the reader can understand, especially if they are a new comer to the realm of magick.Ted takes the reader and explains things in a light that is easily understandable and fun to read. This would be an excellent primer to reading any other works by Mathers, Crowley, and Fortune.

Straightforward

This is an excellent book for the beginning student on the kabbalah, it's easy, and straight to the point. And best of all it's blabber-free.

THE LITTLE BOOK THAT IS TRUE TO ITS TITLE

I had always been intrigued by the qabala, but found all the books on the subject too daunting to keep me interested. So when I came upon this little book in the New Age shelf at Scribners I was sold after just a brief look. I finally understood what qabala is! As a previous reviewer stated, the exercises really work. Therefore, I must warn any casual dabblers out there - this is not a game! If you are interested in the subject, by all means read on and enjoy the book, however do not attempt to practice its principles unless you are a serious student. Approach the practice with seriousness and reverence or you may find yourself in a predicament not unlike that of Pandora!

Excellent Guide for the Beginning Qabalist

Thanks to this little book, I am now a practicing qabalist. The meditative techniques described are easy to follow and bring very powerful results. Ted Andrews provides the reader with sufficient working knowledge of the Tree of Life without intimidating or confusing with unnecessary detail. Unlike other books on qabala, this one encourages understanding through practice. I couldn't recommend this book more. It will always be one of the gems of my personal library.
