The Ninth Arch
The Ninth Arch is the final volume of the Typhonian Trilogies. It comprises an extended analysis of and commentary upon “Liber OKBISh, The Book of the Spider”, a transmitted text which was received in the course of the Workings of New Isis Lodge in the 1950s.
Beyond the Mauve Zone
Oblique to the paths that give on to other dimensions, and beyond them, there lies a region which the author has termed “the Mauve Zone”. Mystics, magicians, sorcerers, artists of many kinds have - over the centuries - skirted it, stumbled upon it, and fled from it.
Outer Gateways
The Typhonian Tradition discussed in this book matured and declined before even the monumental phase of the earliest civilizations. This is witnessed by fragments of magical and mystical lore once current in Egypt and the Far East. The Tradition lingered on and became corrupt with passing epochs and the gradual attrition of an ages-old lineage of Initiates.
Hecate’s Fountain
Hecate’s Fountain is a highly original approach to contemporary Hermetic thought and experimental occultism. During the rituals of New Isis Lodge (1955-1962) it was noted that not all of them achieved the object for which they were performed.
Outside the Circles of Time
Outside the Circles of Time explores a complex of such ideas, from Blavatsky’s Secret Doctrine, Crowley’s The Book of the Law, Lovecraft’s Necronomicon, and Frater Achad’s researches. It also explores the work of Soror Andahadna, a contemporary Priestess of Maat whose work has parallels with that of Frater Achad some decades previously when he announced the inauguration of the Aeon of Maat in April 1948.
Nightside of Eden
There exists a map of consciousness, with its light and dark byways, in the form of a qabalistic glyph known as the Tree of Life. It has its roots in the primal earth of Eden, but its branches extend into extra-terrestrial dimensions.
Cults of the Shadow
Cults of the Shadow explores obscure aspects of occultism that have been frequently, and mistakenly, associated with the negative and sensational phenomena of so-called “black magic”
Aleister Crowley and the Hidden God
Aleister Crowley vowed to free man from bondage by showing him how to invoke his latent genius; the Hidden God. It is characteristic of Crowley that to this end he utilised the mysterious energies of sex: the most potent, most obsessive of man’s illusions which, if used unintelligently, strengthens the false sense of individual existence that divorces him from the fullness of cosmic consciousness.
The Magical Revival
It provides a detailed analysis of certain occult traditions which existed long before the Christian epoch, survived its persecutions and anathemas, and reappeared in recent times with renewed vigour.
