A Basic Introduction to "the Occult", nevertheless a vital one.

If you are interested in occultism, whatever that may mean to you, and have no idea were to start, give this book a shot, it is a year worth of work, check the table of contents, it's less than a hundred pages long but topics it covers are extensive, like: -Body Awareness -Developing the Will -The Middle Pilar Ritual -Unity - All Is God. As the cover says, it's a year worth of work (actually, I'd guess it's much more) so don't be disheartened by it's size, it's more how you use it!.

The One Year Manual by Irael Regardie

This product is very giving for a magical adventure to being an adapt or to know one self more in Magick , This is very well written and he is known to be that way. And i could just feel the transformating in me while iam thinking about this mans book. It`s ok to take pauses with this book, cause he really reaches his points here. Buy It, and enjoy. I care according to Israel Regardie. Eve

Not that I can claim to be stating something new...

...but it's important enough to me to reiterate a point, that I'm willing to repeat words previously stated. If you are a "student" of magic/k, the occult, esoterica, the Western Mystery Tradition or whatever other term you may care to you, and you would like to make the transition into be a PRACTITIONER of the arts, this is the book for you! This book is exactly what the title claims it to be: a manual. Devoid of a lot of theoretical considerations, it moves directly into what to DO over the course of a year to get a firm footing into higher practices. Regardie's "The One Year Manual" was recommended to me by my guide, and I feel just as comfortable making this commendation.

good to go

a nifty and powerful little work that will assist you in increasing your powers of imagination and visualization. Great to load up in the backpack for a hike.

Great Start

I have only read the first two chapters of this book, but I wanted to put some feedback where there is none. The book is written for you to read one chapter with its specific exercize per month. Isreal Regardie is usually very WORDY as was typical for the time period and being a serious occult writer, BUT this book is not wordy at all. This book is a small quick and from what I can tell excellent place to start actually practicing the occult. For instance the first chapter and exercise is to just sit/lay and work on being sensitive with what your feeling. The second exercize is on breathing. The rest of the book seems to be very practical and from what I can tell I would recommend to any student on spiritual practices. This book is written not to exclude anyone with any particular religious belief but only to start a practical approach to spiritual practice.
