Product Description

Thelemic magick, as it is practiced today, is based on the works of Aleister Crowley. Those works can be dense, and Crowley’s suggested course of study intimidating to beginners. In Abrahadabra, Rodney Orpheus offers a much simpler and more immediate path for working with the same magical current Crowley used. His approach is grounded in practice—you don’t need to read tomes before you begin to meditate and participate in rituals and practical exercises and manifestations. Abrahadabra is a perfect primer for anyone who is curious to know what magick is all about, but it is also a wonderful sourcework for those looking to augment their own Wiccan or pagan practice with ritual magick or who seek a deeper understanding of Crowley’s classic works.

Customer Reviews

An understandable view of Thelema
Finally! Wow this book is the clearest, easiest to understand book on Magick I have ever read. Now if only the author would write 12 more.
I am often left scratching my head when reading Crowley or books about Magick. If you dont have the IQ of a rocket scientist or an extensive education in every area of everything this book is for you. Thank you Rodney!

Excellent
Absolutely the best book written on Thelema, that I have read. Gives modern and updated material which is of great need in this system.

Straightforward book on Thelema
Rodney Orpheus is the singer from The Cassandra Complex and it turns out that he's good at explaining Crowley's magickal system to modern readers. Hard to think of any other recent books which successfully tackle this material. I understand that the O.T.O. (or one them anyway) recommends the book.
