Magick for Beginners: The Power to Change Your World (For Beginners (Llewellyn's))
In one book, J.H. Brennan has encapsulated an introduction to both low and high magick. He focuses mainly on the methods of the Golden Dawn (the most well known contemporary magical organization), but he also incorporates elements from sources such as theI Chingand practices such as dowsing. While there are other practical primers on magick available, none tackles the stickier concepts such as Brennan's revelation that the astral realm is not just influenced by imagination butisimagination. Brennan links magick to the mundane world in terms accessible to the novice and with demonstrations such as materializing a $100 bill to illustrate the fundamentals of magick.--Brian Patterson
