Reviews

[Edric Unsane · Rating 5 out of 5]

A very unique and unorthodox methodology of getting to know the Qabalah. The quirky exercises and writing makes this book easy to understand and digest. I would also recommend, although it is not quite necessary, reading the first book in the series and having it by your side as a companion guide. Needless to say, I thought this book was both quite excellent and an invaluable resource for those of us who are interested in a non-dogmatic approach to the Qabalah.

A little denser and less goofy than the first book, this is chock full of everything anyone ever needed to know about Qabalah.

What a great follow up to Chicken Qabalah! Lon is wonderful.

Even if you’re a seasoned occultist working in the western esoteric tradition, there’s a ton to glean from this book. Lon makes some really lofty concepts super simple to grasp, all with his signature wit no humor.

Definitely required reading for any other Thelemites or magicians working with the Golden Dawn tradition.

A good overview of getting to know and understand the Qabalah.

Filled with the same enjoyable sense of humor as its predecessor. Largely concerns initiatory ceremonies.
