Download or read book Tactical Magic written by Aaron McKagantry and published by Covenstead Press. This book was released on 2008-02 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written for the professional mage, Tactical Magic gives techniques and tricks for dealing with the real mage's worst enemy-untrained ignorant dabblers. These gnats of the magical world, civilians, like to make ridiculous demands on genuine mages, making life difficult and making operating beneath the radar of the nonmagical public impossible. Ouija Boards, Possession and other sources of civilian hysteria are carefully deconstructed herein, with a no-nonsense fieldbook approach to dealing with typical nonmagical panic about things magical-identifying the source of the panic and neutralizing it in the most effective manner possible. Since magic is not as flashy or as exciting as civilians expect, tips for giving them the glitter they want while doing the small manipulations of energy they need are included. Non-Mages will find the book non-instructional, and should not bother looking within. This book is not about them, it's about mages living in the real world who have to deal with them.
Download or read book Magic written by Jamie Sutcliffe and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2021-12-14 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first accessible reader on magic’s generative relationship with contemporary art practice. From the hexing of presidents to a renewed interest in herbalism and atavistic forms of self-care, magic has furnished the contemporary imagination with mysterious and often disorienting bodies of arcane thought and practice. This volume brings together writings by artists, magicians, historians, and theorists that illuminate the vibrant correspondences animating contemporary art’s varied encounters with magical culture, inspiring a reconsideration of the relationship between the symbolic and the pragmatic. Dispensing with simple narratives of reenchantment, Magic illustrates the intricate ways in which we have to some extent always been captivated by the allure of the numinous. It demonstrates how magical culture’s tendencies toward secrecy, occlusion, and encryption might provide contemporary artists with strategies of remedial communality, a renewed faith in the invocational power of personal testimony, and a poetics of practice that could boldly question our political circumstances, from the crisis of climate collapse to the strictures of socially sanctioned techniques of medical and psychiatric care. Tracing its various emergences through the shadows of modernity, the circuitries of ritual media, and declarations of psychic self-defence, Magic deciphers the evolution of a “magical-critical” thinking that productively complicates, contradicts and expands the boundaries of our increasingly weird present.
Download or read book Tactical Magick written by Seth and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2004-10-01 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Magick is cheap and power is all around you. The most vibrant magick in the world is that of survival. If you know how it works you can use it anywhere, with anything, to do whatever you need or desire. Tactics is defined as the choice and application of technique in a specific situation. The purpose of tactical magick is to take the magick of survival and incorporate it into our daily lives. So called High Magick is chiefly concerned with expanding consciousness, contacting higher planes, and achieving gnosis. Tactical magick is about learning from the plight of those less fortunate and building upon their techniques to create an eclectic grimoire of daily survival. This is a patchwork system of pop-culture sorcery, techno-alchemy, and hermetic street magick.

Download or read book Design Evolution written by Tim Samara and published by Rockport Publishers. This book was released on 2008-01-01 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Presents diverse, international, in-depth case studies. While there are many books showcasing graphic design work, few present in-depth projects, exploring concept, designerÆs strategy, visual problem-solving, and specifics, illustrating the concrete use of design principles to achieve intended communication goals. As a result, readers are often left with only a surface understanding of how a project might have evolved or how the visual aspects of its design are brought together to convey its intended message. The case studies in Design Evolution comprehensively demonstrate the real-world application of visual principles discussed in a more formal, educational context. Readers will understand how the principles for image, layout, type, and color explored in volume 1, Design Elements, work in combination, to execute the overall solutions showcased in this volume. The depth and range of content presented in these case studies distinguishes this book from all others in the design showcase genre -- offering readers a chance to not only be inspired by the quality and innovation of showcased projects, but to understand how they were realized.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Too many people 'flunk' retirement--even after a lifetime of hard work. Why? Because they only plan on their financial needs, not their emotional ones as they move into the next phase of life. The key to a successful retirement lies in your personality, NOT in your bank account. My Next Phase--featured in The New York Times, BusinessWeek, and The Washington Post--offers a revolutionary, step-by-step process to figure out your personal "Retirement Style" and creates a unique retirement plan based on who you are. Take the My Next Phase quizzes and find out: WHAT'S YOUR SOCIAL STYLE? If you're outgoing, you'll need companionship through your days, whether you leave your job or keep working. If you're contemplative, you'll need solitude as well as social connection to find the fulfillment in the years ahead. WHAT'S YOUR STRESS STYLE? If you're resilient, you'll push yourself to find challenge--and get bored without it. If you're responsive, you'll need to pace yourself. Either way, you'll need a passion that gives you a reason to get out of bed each day. WHAT'S YOUR PLANNING STYLE? If you're structured, you'll prefer to schedule your time. If you're flexible, you'll want a freer, less scheduled life. And many more questions (and answers) to ensure a happy, fulfilling 'next phase' of life.
