In 1909, Crowley received and wrote down his visions in the Sahara. In them, he gives an account of crossing the Abyss and attaining the grade of Master of the Temple. The core of this book is a record of his visions of the 30 Aethyres of the Enochian Magick developed by John Dee and Edward Kelley. It includes Crowley's own diagrams and the original typescript of the Commentaries. There is also a record of Crowley's magical work conducted with Victor B. Neuberg, and includes the "Esoteric Record of the Paris Working" as well as "The Holy Hymns to the Great Gods of Heaven".

I think this book should belong in the Library for all those whom practice the wondorous magick of the Enochiana. If you ever wondered what it was like traveling the Aetheyrs from TEX to LIL, then this book is un-equaled in it's class. If you ARE to travel the Aethyrs, this book gives each practitioner each of the necessary guide posts, that are unique to each Aethyr, that you should look for. It was well written, and gives you insight on what to expect and what you should avoid. On a side note, I think that you should find your own means of traveling to ZAX, pushing aside the rather dangerous method that is given in this book.

Liber 418 takes over where Dr. Dee and Mr. Kelly left off. One of the great works of Aleister Crowley. Put this on in your Shopping Cart, it's a long read, but worth every hour!

This book offers some major insight into his ritual of the 30 Aethyrs. It includes several other workings in much detail, and has so much symbolism in it just like the rest of his books. Check it out for a good read and valuable insight.

This is more esoteric philosophy than religion or magick. Philosophy is the reasoning behind things and deals a lot with morals. This is more occult oriented and harder to find. I noticed in this book several innuendos used by gimmicky shock rockers. It is worth getting just to see a different side of the beast besides the religious aspect.
