Book Description

December 8, 2001

In this comprehensive reference manual, two leading occult researchers present step-by-step instructions, some never before in print, for developing the most basic and essential skills for magical practitioners of any tradition—creating thought forms through astral manipulation.

Magical Use of Thought Forms includes sections on the structure of reality and on new visualization techniques to build correct astral images for highly potent magical work, from creating a Familiar or Guardian to building a Memory Palace, Also revealed in this extraordinary guide:

  • The occult art of observation
  • How to build up desire as fuel for a potent astral engine
  • The three-point location of occult power in the physical brain
  • The creation of advanced astral structures including Godforms and angelics, audial images, and astral landscapes

The most spectacular aspect of this book is the instruction given for the performance of the legendary alchemical experiment: the creation of the homunculus, an animated form that can last up to several hours.

Editorial Reviews

From the Publisher

THOUGHT POWER

I want you to know right from the beginning that this is blatant pitch to get you to buy a special book.

When marketing people have suggested that I use my editorial space as a 'bully pulpit' to do just that, I have resisted the idea, but this book is too important and potentially too valuable to you for me not to make this extra effort. This book can give you: 1. One of the most powerful techniques to change your life and bring you enormous practical benefits. 2. One of the most powerful techniques to transform your life and bring enormous spiritual benefits. 3. The discipline to accomplish almost anything you can dream of.

* * * Think of your favorite dessert.

You saw an image of it. That's a Thought Form, and if you are salivating for that dessert now you realize how powerful it is. But that's insignificant in comparison to the power of a well constructed magical thought form and it is that skill that will bring you the three benefits listed above. All action starts with a thought form, but most thought is ineffective because it lacks the conscious technique and intentional discipline taught in this book.

* * * This book, The Magical Use of Thought Forms is sub-titled:

A Proven System of Mental & Spiritual Empowerment.

It is not merely a book about seemingly miraculous power but a detailed course of instruction with training exercises that is extraordinarily enjoyable to read and easy to put in to practice. You can call what is taught here any number of terms, but I prefer to call it magick because that very word stirs the imagination and it with a disciplined imagination that the Human Mind is brought to full power.

In simply reading this book you will learn many things: · How to use a magical mirror to double the power of desire, the first step in building a magical pyramid, followed by Imagination, Visualization and Organization. · The Importance of Pineal Gland. · How to create an effective Astral Body. · How to create an astral assistant. · How to build God Forms. · How to construct and use a unique Memory Palace. · The real secret to Drawing Down the Moon. · How to create a Household Guardian. · How to work with your Guardian Angel.

And many more practical matters once held to be occult secrets too powerful for any but initiates to know. But these matters are too important for your growth, survival and spiritual development to remain secret. Some of them have been published elsewhere, but here you have it from two authors who are trained initiates able to give the important exercises to actually train you and develop these skills. It takes work to become a magician, but being a magician is exactly what you are here to do.

You will learn about the true natural of reality as perceived both through the Ancient Wisdom and Modern Quantum Physics. You will learn all about the Astral Plane, and how important it is to everything that manifests in the Material World in which we live. · The Astral Plane is Key to Magical Results. · The Astral Plane is the Foundation of the Physical Universe. · The Astral Plane is the Imagination of the Universe. · The Astral Plane includes the Manipulation of Thought Forms.

You will be trained in the building of Occult Forms, and you will gain understanding of how they function and interact, how they can gain strength and endure or how they can be erased when no longer needed. You will access special instruction in the use of the Hebrew letters to draw upon their inherent power and meaning from their long established magical usage. You will understand the nature and use of prayer. You will learn about Astral Guardians and their use. You will be taught to construct, and guard, an Inner Temple for your true magical work. You will be given an actual ritual to create a Golem and the HTML code to create web pages with which to experience the concept of cyberspace. And you will be given a series of exercises that will transform all your reading and study into practical and workable skills you can employ anytime anywhere.

YOU WILL BE EMPOWERED! That's the point I want to make. This is not a book about magick, nor is it a book that requires a life time of work for results. This is a Llewellyn Magickal Arts Book that I personally endorse. Use it, follow the instruction and practice the exercises, and you will gain expertise in the building of magical thought forms and learn how to use them.

4.0 out of 5 stars A brilliant text for the neophyte, May 21, 2004
By 
Don Eglinski (Edmonton, Canada) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Magical Use of Thought Forms: A Proven System of Mental & Spiritual Empowerment (Paperback)
I don't know what the other reviewers are complaining about, there are numerous texts on magic in print and many of them are for the more adept student (why not try Julius Evola's work), but I found this to be one book I recomment most highly to beginners. It covers the most important aspects of what is fundamental to all magical workings: concentration and visualization exercises. This book, in conjunction with Peter J. Carroll's Liber Null & Psychonaut, lay down the groundwork using semantics that are easy to grasp and not overly burdened with ritual, dogma, and other baggage from magic's past. Highly suggested.

5.0 out of 5 stars This book is destined to become a classic of occult writing, December 8, 2001

This review is from: Magical Use of Thought Forms: A Proven System of Mental & Spiritual Empowerment (Paperback)
Finally a book that is written for the advanced practioner. This is not a rehash of material written by others. This is unique. This is material you haven't seen before. Mrs. Ashcroft-Nowicki and Mr. Brennan have put together a true workbook for those interested in the advanced magical work of the creation of the homunuculus, along with practical exercises for developing the ability to do so. Make no mistake, this is work. But if you are willing to put in the effort to perform this art, the tools you will need are here.

5.0 out of 5 stars Cogito ergo sum, February 12, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Magical Use of Thought Forms: A Proven System of Mental & Spiritual Empowerment (Paperback)
Truly magical. This book comes under the heading of "I wish I had read this years ago". These two authors write seamlessly, you can hardly tell where one leaves off and another begins. They interact very well. On the theoretical side there is a wealth of knowledge to delve into and thimk about. This part alone kept me alternately reading and thinking for almost a week. I did not want to miss a word. Then I got to the practical side and had to keep re-reading paragraphs because I kept getting new insights.

All in all a remarkable book . I hope they write more. The combination of scientific and practical information is stunning, and so down to earth, unlike the airy fairy stuff that is published nowadays.
