Nightside
of Eden by Kenneth Grant Out of Print in USA, try ABE (below) |
Famed occultist Kenneth Grant continues his
explorations of the left hand path in the compelling study that begins with
the evolution of the Sephiroth of the Qabalistic Tree of Life. He delves into
the almost unknown nightside of the tree , finding evidence of
extraterrestrial dimensions that, even now, stir our group unconscious in
potentially dangerous ways. We must understand these powers, says Grant, for
if they are not controlled, the violent disruptions which are already
overtaking civilization will become pandemic |

Hecate’s Fountain by Kenneth Grant. Out of print in UK, try ABE (below) |
This text began in the work of the New Isis Lodge
as they created what Kenneth Grant describes as tangential tantra a profound
disturbance which lies between dreaming and dreamless sleep in the realm of
Night. Much of this material had a Lovecraftian weirdness and intensity. It
is chronicled here with a poetic immediacy that outlines the manifestations
of the highest magical zone this side of the Abyss. A must for all students
of the occult. |

Zos
Speaks!: Encounters With Austin Osman Spare by Kenneth Grant |
This book consists of two
parts. The first is a collection of short letters by Spare and Kenneth &
Steffi Grant, and also extracts from Kenneth Grant’s diaries, all written
between 1949 and 1956, when Spare died, giving interpretations of Spare’s
magical philosophy and his art in a perhaps less enigmatic way then his
writings do. The second part is The Book of Zos vel Thanatos, containing The
Logomachy, The Zoëtic Grimoire: The Formulae of Zos vel Thanatos and The
Living Word, all later material by Spare published here for the first time.
The book is filled to the brim with Spare's art, including some beautiful
colour pictures. Spare was a major influence on contemporary magick and this
book deepens one's understanding of him greatly. |

Cults
of the Shadow by Kenneth Grant |
Many sincere occultists have hesitated to study the
notorious left hand path for fear of stumbling into incalculable evil and
ultimate damnation. As the last student of Aleister Crowley, Kenneth Grant
has no such hesitations. In he shows that the left hand path has no
connection with black magic-it is a legitimate balance to the right hand path
dating back to the primeval phases of consciousness. Grant leads us on a dark
pathway through Africa's Ophidian (snake) tradition Egypt's Draconian cult
and the Tantric secrets of India and Tibet into the present day. |

Outer
Gateways by Kenneth Grant |
As Aleister Crowley's last magical student at
Netherwood in the 1940's, Kenneth Grant has upheld a proud occult tradition
through a lifetime of study practice and writing. This latest book is not
only for experienced students of the occult; it is also excellent for those
who are new to Grant's work. Here is Grant moving through magic and beyond to
a new and controversial view of human evolution and the ultimate goal of
Undivided Consciousness. Topics include the primal grimoire the unfamiliar
spirit and the fourth power of the sphinx along with aspects of dream control
and the wisdom of S'lba. |
