Blue Lotus Perfume Oil

The unfolding petals of the Blue Lotus flower suggest the soul’s expansion. The growth of its pure beauty from the mud of its origin holds a spiritual promise. When Shiva requested the gift of knowledge from Kali, he embraced the thirst for knowledge that permeates the vast conscious universe. This is the same hunger that drives us to create art, music and life. The hunger that ignites in our hearts the passion to study and learn science, medicine, alchemy, philosophy and magic.

In both Egyptian and Hindu cultures, the Blue Lotus is well known for promoting spiritual growth, healing, balancing and rejuvenation.

The captivating scent of Blue Lotus Absolute essential oil is truly one-of-a-kind. Blending warm, spicy, sweet, and floral notes all at once, the fragrance has a complex intensity that is perfectly balanced with subtle refinement. The Egyptians and Hindus of ancient times believed that such exquisite smells were signs of the divine’s presence – symbols of transformation and rebirth. This theory has been extended to suggest that fragrances can shape our mental and emotional states as well. Upon first inhalation, Blue Lotus evokes a sense of longing for both the past and future; love is not far away. As the aroma fills your senses, they become filled with pure pleasure and appreciation for the physical world’s beauty. And with every breath, an overwhelming sense of euphoria begins to take hold – comforting us like a hug from the Goddess herself.

Review of JSM 5: Journal for the Academic Study of Magic, Volume 5

The fifth volume of the Journal for the Academic Study of Magic (JSM5) continues its tradition of offering rich, scholarly insights into the multifaceted world of magic and esotericism. This edition is particularly noteworthy for its broad range of topics, which span different cultures, historical periods, and perspectives, providing readers with a well-rounded exploration of magical practices and beliefs.

Philip Jewell’s article on Flavius Josephus offers an intriguing examination of how Jewish magic was adapted to fit Roman sensibilities, shedding light on the intersection of religion, culture, and power. Dan Harms’ discussion of grimoires in the conjure tradition provides a deep dive into the practical and ritualistic uses of these texts, making it a must-read for those interested in the tangible aspects of magic.

Dana Winters’ analysis of Doctor Faustus highlights the integration of Hermetic and Cabalistic elements in Marlowe’s work, revealing the complex layers of Renaissance esotericism. Sabina Magliocco’s piece on Italian cunning craft introduces readers to a lesser-known tradition, offering preliminary but valuable observations that encourage further study.

J.A. Silver Frost’s exploration of secret astrologers operating within mainstream professions is both fascinating and accessible, showing how these individuals navigated societal norms while practising their craft. Patrick Maille’s article on martyrs, magic, and Christian conversion presents a thought-provoking look at how magic influenced religious transitions.

Kennet Granholm’s study of Pekka Siitoin provides a critical examination of the darker intersections of anti-Semitism, Theosophy, and Christianity in occult doctrines, offering a sobering reminder of the political dimensions of esoteric beliefs. Lastly, Marguerite Johnson’s exploration of sex magic in 1950s Australia offers a glimpse into the intersection of sexuality and the occult, a topic that remains relevant in contemporary studies.

Overall, JSM5 is a compelling and diverse collection of essays that will appeal to both scholars and enthusiasts of magic. It successfully bridges the gap between academic rigour and the captivating nature of its subject matter.

There are many books on how to do magick, but not so many with stories about actually doing it and what happens. NakedTantra lays bare the inner states of the two brave souls involved in this extended magical work.

An experiment, two people, two countries, one mind, experimenting in tantra meta-magick, cosmic astral travel to the land of no boundaries, looking for the doors of perception.

Of necessity, the contents of this grimoire might be considered erotic. And, with that thought in mind, it might also be that the reader is occasionally aroused by our story as it progresses. Some might find this an unwanted intrusion, into what is otherwise an exploration of a magical world. Others we surmise will take this in good part, accepting that, a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down. To those who do not share these sensibilities, and are unmoved by what you are about to read, we offer our sincerest apologies.

Sexuality is one of the keys to magick. In this book, first published in 1988, Katon Shual presents some of the secrets of sexual gnosis within  western magick – a system that is often misunderstood. The book begins with a look at the revival of sexual magick in the early part of the 20th century, especially within the ranks of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn and some of the post Golden Dawn magical groups such as Aleister Crowley’s Thelemic cult. The book goes on the look at the modern fusion of western Hermetic and eastern Tantrik sexual gnosticism. On the way it discusses in a progressive manner gay, straight and solitary sexual magick. The book goes on to introduce the ancient deity Seth as an archetype of the sexual magician. The book includes an unpublished grimoire of sexual magick, as well as several other unusual sources, including an authoritative exploration of the chakra system, a magical approach to Kundalini and an introduction to the relationship between the sacred sexuality and the external landscape.

‘Makes the subject of sexual magick accessible and lucid and above all relevant to contemporary magical practice’

RADICAL DESIRE
Re-written with much new material
Completely new illustrations & 3 bonus short stories

“The wit and wisdom of Mark Ramsden’s illuminating text delivers a gripping journey through a rich seam of sexual expression. Read this book, enjoy this book, for it deserves your utmost attention. Over 40? Fat? The style gurus say you’re not sexy, not horny, this book says ‘Bollocks!’ An essential reference work… And bloody good fun too.” – – John Carter

Radical Desire review on Amazon

“This slim (140 pages) book is part brutally honest, unpretentious and often hilarious autobiography, (page 28 is a full page photograph of Mr Ramsden’s pierced penis with the caption “The author making a dick of himself with his eighth Prince Albert upgrade”) part encyclopaedia of fetish (including Piercing, Corsets, Rubber, Switching and Scarification) part tour guide for fetish-loving tourists (“Some say the dungeon play (at Club Rub) is not as extreme as at certain clubs but then I don’t go to a club to see perverts fisting each other. I can get that at home.”) part fine visual art (all illustrations by Ruth Ramsden) and part fiction (2 kinky short stories, here’s an excerpt from “Madam Petra”: Sometime, somewhere, we are always together. Exchanging fragments of dreams and whispered prayers. In the long, slow, sweet dance of desire. Warmed by a pussycat smile.) and entirely satisfying.

Radical Desire: Kink & Magickal Sex, is not so much a book as it is an experience; one that kinksters, new, experienced, or jaded, should not miss.”
– Madeleine
