By Arthur Edward Waite

Book Overview

""The Threshold of Magical Science"" by Arthur Edward Waite is a book that explores the history, philosophy, and practice of magic. Waite, a prominent occultist and member of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, draws on his extensive knowledge of esoteric traditions to provide a comprehensive overview of the subject. The book covers topics such as the origins of magic, the symbolism of the tarot, the use of ritual and ceremony, and the role of the magician in society.
