Celtic Sex Magic: For Couples, Groups, and Solitary Practitioners [Paperback]

Jon G. Hughes (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: December 1, 2001

The first written account by a contemporary Welsh initiate of the ancient tradition of sex magic as practiced by generations of Celtic druids.

• Reveals authentic, accurate, and fully illustrated instructions.

• Provides detailed instructions for crafting, purifying, and energizing all the necessary ritual tools.

Sex magic is an important component of Celtic spiritual practice. Unlike other ritual practices that look to intermediaries or deities to execute the participants' wishes, druids believe that individuals can directly influence exterior reality by focusing their own internal sexual energy. Sex magic potentizes and projects this energy so that it reaches its full power, allowing the participants to liberate their consciousness from everyday awareness and influence reality at will.

Written by a practicing druid with more than forty years in the tradition, Celtic Sex Magic explains the fundamental principles involved in channeling the vast amounts of energy generated during orgasm for the purpose of projecting spells and elevating consciousness. The secrets of this tradition have been passed down orally for generations and are revealed here in print for the first time. This workbook contains authentic, accurate, and fully illustrated instructions for a wide range of sex magic rituals that may be used by couples, groups, and solitary practitioners. The author also provides detailed instructions for crafting the necessary ritual tools and brewing the potions used in these rituals. Celtic Sex Magic offers the keys to unlocking and directing the enormous potential of sexual energy.

5.0 out of 5 stars amazing new information and instructions, April 3, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Celtic Sex Magic: For Couples, Groups, and Solitary Practitioners (Paperback)

I have a number of books on sex magic but this is undoubtedly the best. I was not aware of the Celtic history of sex magic until I read this book. It contains easily understood information and instructions all of which are written in simple, easily-understood language. There are some amazing revelations in the book, some of which have changed my understanding of sex magic as a whole. I think that this is a really important book on this subject and should be read by everyone who wants to learn more about sex magic.

5.0 out of 5 stars a difficult subject very well dealt with, June 20, 2002

This review is from: Celtic Sex Magic: For Couples, Groups, and Solitary Practitioners (Paperback)

I purchased this book in anticipation of jon Hughes' forthcoming tour of the US in order to explore his ideas. I began reading it with some caution as it is a subject that could easily be exploited, made vulgar and commercialised. I was more than please to discover that Jon Hughes has handled the subject well, in a sensitive manner with easily understood language. I have learned a great deal from the book and would recommend it to anyone who wishes to explore Celtic magic and in particular sex magic. It is refreshing to see Jon explore areas other than the tantric-style sex magic which emphasises the development of sexual prowess and performance, In Hughes' book we can see how these energies may be directed outside the body for a wide variety of uses as opposed to using the energies to improve ones own sexual performance. A good book, well written

3.0 out of 5 stars Exercise Discernment and Caution, May 16, 2002

By 

Frank MacEowen - See all my reviews

This review is from: Celtic Sex Magic: For Couples, Groups, and Solitary Practitioners (Paperback)

My first comment is that I would urge readers to exercise discernment and caution with this subject matter in general. As a shamanic counselor who has worked with survivors of ritual abuse (and ritual sex abuse) the domain of the subject of this book is ripe for abuse and misinterpretation. While the author does offer some interesting information, does offer due diligence to things like health safety, and does seem to have a grasp of the advanced energy mechanics of tantric practices, etc., I think this work could have received much more care in its presentation and I also feel that more could have been written about the nature of responsibility and ethics in ritual work.
