Hello everyone,

I was wondering if this title was worth aquiring or if it was just a rehash of 777, I just wanted to hear from someone who owns the title.

Thank you

Invaluable book. It's not 777, not close. It's a very practical manual, easy to read, easy to apply. Well, that may be subjective, but it's concise and well written in any case, and very clearly expressed.

Another book, Kabbalistic Life Cycles and the Mastery of Life, is proving to be an incredible book as well, not just for magical practice, but really for all aspects of life. Practical Kabbalah in a very comprehensible mode.

Kabbalistic Handbook is about understanding and applying the kabbalistic analysis of ritual work, it's immediately applicable for basic ritual work, evocation, even daily meditation. Definitely get it if you have any interest in the kabbalistic tradition in relationship to magic which, everyone should. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

I would like to second what Vagrant Dreamer wrote about Kabbalistic Cycles. It really is an invaluable book as he said, and is for intellectual practioners of Magic. It helps frame Magical work but does not combine systems (this is frequently misunderstood). It is a work that requires time to actually study, but the results from it are wonderful after the stage of apprehension is achieved as is the case for the next book which will briefly be discussed.

Kabbalistic Life Cycles should be in every Magician's library. The reason for this is because it is crucial to understand how much in control we are over life events by the application of the Cycles...from when to purchase a Magical item to when to plan an interview, it is a system that WORKS splendidly well and is needed in the practice of Old System Magic.

Thank you for your kind attention,

Most Sincerely,

Mr. Curi
