Imaginal Reality. Aaron B. Daniels

Imaginal Reality - Aaron B. Daniels

This is Volume Two of Imaginal Reality, a work that has been described as «The finest book on contemporary existential magic I've ever read» (George Holochwost, Magus (1), Illuminates of Thanateros).Readers will dive deeper into the imagination of magic and learn to develop the fictional gaze necessary to claim authority and authorship of their lives. This second volume contains an extensive glossary of over 300 scholarly entries on esotericism, existentialism, psychology, and the magical revival.This volume moves more explicitly into the practice of magic – that is, the ongoing journey of claiming our lives more fully and deeply. This cultivation of intentionality and vision, though never a one-time decisive victory, can become a more habitual attitude. To gird these hard-fought realizations, this volume presents the other four voids – Nothingness, Meaninglessness, Freedom and Responsibility, and Change and Finitude – in detail.
