Summary: Magick for Beginners
Comment: I have been a fan of JH Brennan for the last twenty years and this book will show why. Too many times occult authors write with such arrogance as if from some mountain top. Not the case with Brennan. You get the feeling you are discussing these subjects over coffee with a sincere and experienced seeker of whatever reality there might be out there. Wonderful book for the beginner as well as the more advanced!

Summary: Magick for Beginners
Comment: J. H. Brennan has written more than 50 books and has lectured internationally. His latest book, Magick for Beginners: The Power to Change Your World, is an easy to understand introduction to using magic. It isn't about pulling rabbits out of hats or other sleight-of-hand tricks. Brennan defines magic as "a collection of techniques, dating back at least 70,000 years, aimed at manipulating the human imagination in order to produce physical, psychological, or spiritual results."
He emphasizes that there's more than one system of magic. Because his training was Qabalistically based, the techniques he describes include many elements from the Quabalah.
Auto-suggestion and imagination play a huge role in the success of magic. Human imagination is also described as "astral" and the astral world is as real as the physical world. Practicing magic brings one into contact with the astral plane, and sometimes with astral entities. For this reason, Brennan starts with basic safeguards that all magicians need to learn before doing anything else.
He then describes in great detail how and why magic works. He begins with "low magic," which includes instructions on how to produce a [$$$] bill. Low magic also includes divination, auras, chakras, and dowsing. Many of the low magic techniques are relatively easy to master and there are thousands of magicians practicing them.
Brennan then discusses "high magic." High magic requires far more work and dedication, but the rewards are enormous. It enables practitioners to "link [themselves] to the power and knowledge of the Universal Forces that underlie all reality." He includes instructions for rituals, pathworking, and conjuration. Brennan finishes the high magic section with instructions for making oneself "invisible."
Interwoven throughout the book are threads from the Qabalah, and quantum physics. Brennan draws parallels between the ancient and modern, and believes that science and magic will one day be recognized as one and the same.
He's used an informal approach in Magick for Beginners to help remove the dark mystery surrounding the practice of magic and show that "magic can be fun." Readers following his instructions can evoke magic to safely improve their lives. While it can be a serious endeavor, they'll find they can have fun with it also.
