Wizardry for the Uninitiated
Insights from a modern day Wizard
into the practices, philosophies and beliefs of this
ancient magickal tradition
By Thea Faye
Wizardry, supposedly the stuff of fantasy
and children’s novels, but if you dare look a little
deeper than Harry Potter, you will find traces of an
ancient tradition of magick which still exists to this
day, practised in secret by those who dedicate themselves
to this arcane occult science.
This book by Thea Faye, a modern day
Wizard, explores the beliefs and practices of Wizardry,
giving clues along the way for those wishing to explore
the tradition in more depth. Discover the concealed
history of Wizardry, practiced through the ages by men
like Moses, Merlin, Nicolas Flamel, Agrippa and Faust
through to the modern day illusionist Derren Brown.
The contemporary work of a Wizard in
the 21st century is explored, together with the tools
used by Wizards, and the basic skills every Wizard needs
to master, such as training Familiars, Astral Projection
and Commanding Spirits. The author further compares
and differentiates between the modern Pagan traditions
of Witchcraft and that of the Wizard, showing clear
differences in the beliefs and magickal practices.
Suited to “would-be-wizards”
of all levels of experience, as well as the purely inquiring
mind who wants to glimpse the world of this still obscure
tradition of the occult, this little book contains many
unique and excellent insights into the fascinating world
of wizardry.
