Printed in two colors with over 140 illustration!Gateways Through Light and Shadow is the second book by Bryan Garner known to his fellow ceremonial magicians as Frater Ashen Chassan and in it we are again offered the illuminating opportunity to observe and learn from a practicing magus engaged in his Work. Once more he offers instruction in the processes of grimoric ceremonial magic and shares the insights he has gained from his ongoing research and operations. However what may be most extraordinary about Gateways is that it allows us access to the detailed magical journal records of the communications received by Ashen Chassan and his gifted scryer Benn mac Stiofn during the evocations of such profound Spiritual beings as the seven Planetary Archangels the seven Olympic Planetary Spirits the four Spirit Kings of the Cardinal Directions and the Supercelestial Angels Sandalphon and Metatron.Gateways Through Light and Shadow is illustrated throughout with two-color line art of the talismanic magical implements used in the evocations including sigils seals lamens pentacles and magic circles along with new implements created by the magician under the guidance of the Archangels as well as new portraits of the evoked Spirits. This book is a major contribution to the study and practice of Western ceremonial ritual magic. This is a book that no serious practitioner of magic should be without.from the Foreword by Dr. Stephen Skinner
