Download or read book The Great Equinox written by Gregory David Done and published by Albion-Andalus Books. This book was released on 2015-08-11 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Great Equinox is a testament to the power of family and the written word. Spanning a century in context, these collections of poetry and letters have come together through time and space to produce a rare work of literature. From new Word docs, old typed manuscripts, and hand-written letters, four voices emerge that speak from the heart and tell a small part of their story through the gift of poetry. "Somehow three poets of a single family line, all living west of the Mississippi, each attuned to the wheeling heavens, have kept to the work of poetry, across decades. The result is this unprecedented book. Kinship, astrology, peyote, folklore of the American West. Through it all runs a deep spiritual fervor and a holy love for one another. Is the poetry here, as one inquires, to burn up old family karma? Is it to fulfill the mysteries of the revolving planets, as another suggests? Poetry's first task is to investigate one's place on earth; this book does so-with abundance & overflow. - Andrew Schelling, author of Love and The Turning Seasons: India's Poetry of Spiritual & Erotic Longing "This profound book opens the door on three generations-four voices-of poets by the name of Done and Churchill. Their ensemble draws us into family bonds of searing sincerity, at once sensual and wise, that ask, what secrets do we also hold? Individually, the poems are stunning; together they are a tour de force to be savored again and again." - Acharya Judith Simmer-Brown, Naropa University, Author of Dakini's Warm Breath: The Feminine Principle in Tibetan Buddhism

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Volume II of The Best of the Equinox by Aleister Crowley, offers a treasure chest of dramatic rituals. The Equinox became the standard for English language esotericism in the early 20th century, aptly termed the "Encyclopedia of Initiation" by its principal editor and contributor, Aleister Crowley. This ten-volume collection had remarkable variety, depth, and the utility of its contents encompass Qabalah, tarot, yoga, and the essential papers of Crowley's teaching order, A. A. Unfortunately, much of this material is currently out of print. The Best of the Equinox, Volume II, curated by scholar and U.S. Deputy Grandmaster General of the O.T.O., Lon Milo DuQuette, collects the best of Crowley’s material from both in-print and out-of-print editions of The Equinox. For Crowley collectors and the curious alike, this is an accessible, affordable volume packed with high magick and secrets.
Download or read book The Equinox written by Aleister Crowley and published by Weiser Books. This book was released on 1990-01-01 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Along with his written works, Aleister Crowley's legacy includes the organization he is credited with founding, the OTO or Ordo Templi Orientis -- The Order of Oriental Templars. This book contains key introductory material to this contemporary occult society, along with a history of the Order after Crowley's death. The format of this edition matches that of the first Equinox series published with Crowley as editor and includes magical instruction, communications to OTO members (all the dirt on court cases the OTO has been involved in), and original works of fiction and poetry. As part of this latter category, this book features an illustrated study of the works of underground filmmaker Kenneth Anger with a complete filmography. It could be argued that Aleister Crowley (1875-1947) anticipated the entire New Age phenomenon with his methods of teaching, codified in the tenets of the OTO. A rich melange of ritual magic, traditional spiritual practice, drug use, and sex, borrowing from many different cultures and traditions, informed the development of this lasting magical system. Although he's been popularized (and demonized) as The Beast, 666, his teachings have shown lasting value.
Download or read book Equinox written by David Towsey and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2022-05-12 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this world, two souls inhabit a single body, one by day, one by night. But though they live alongside one another, their ends do not always align. For Special Inspector Morden, whose hunt for a dangerous witch takes him far from home, this will be a problem... Christophor Morden lives by night. His day-brother, Alexsander, knows only the sun. They are two souls in a single body, in a world where identities change with the rising and setting of the sun. Night-brother or day-sister, one never sees the light, the other knows nothing of the night. Early one evening, Christophor is roused by a call to the city prison. A prisoner has torn his eyes out and cannot say why. Yet worse: in the sockets that once held his eyes, teeth are growing. The police suspect the supernatural, so Christophor, a member of the king's special inspectorate, is charged with finding the witch responsible. Night-by-night, Christophor's investigation leads him ever further from home, toward a backwards village on the far edge of the kingdom. But the closer he gets to the truth, the more his day-brother's actions frustrate him. Who is Alexsander protecting? What does he not want Christophor to discover? And all the while, an ancient and apocalyptic ritual creeps closer to completion... Praise for Equinox: 'Clever, original and beautifully crafted, half the fun here lies in getting to grips with the ramifications of this complex world, but the story holds like a vice' Daily Mail 'Spellbinding fantasy... This innovative work is sure to please' Publishers Weekly 'An ambitious and gruesome tale of intrigue, witches, and the warring self – utterly transporting' Ian Green, author of The Gauntlet and the Fist Beneath
