The Magical Pantheons: A Golden Dawn Journal (Bk.4)
Calling on the gods and goddesses of ancient times is part and parcel of most Western magical traditions, but just who are these figures of power? Are they actual beings, bending their ears to our calls, or are they thought forms given power by our persistent prayers? Chic and Sandra Tabatha Cicero have collected articles answering these and other important questions that arise from the renewal of interest in ancient deities. From the incorporation of Irish and Norse pantheons into Golden Dawn ritual magic to the connections between Osiris and Christ in the Golden Dawn system to a complete ritual for determining for yourself whether or not the gods really exist, these essays address the vital questions serious practitioners of Western magic will inevitably ask.--Brian Patterson
