Voudon Gnosis – David Beth (Scarlet Imprint)

Description

A fascinating and challenging glimpse into the Voudon system, it is both a gateway for students and an inspiration for those looking for a more creative occultism. This book is a perfect introduction to the complexities of that strangest of all modern grimoires, Bertiaux’s Voudon Gnostic Workbook. Expanding upon the groundwork of his essay in “Howlings”, David Beth guides us through this eclectic, syncretic and highly personal system of sorcery which nevertheless has come from a genuine Haitian lineage. Those looking for the wilder atavistic energies of sex magick, as we find embodied in the art of Austin Osman Spare, will find much of interest in this book. Voudon Gnosis outlines a more complex and highly developed system of sex magick than is found in the secret grade papers of the Western magickal tradition. Voudon Gnosis covers: Las Prise des Yeaux, Points Chauds, Spider Sorcery and Time Travelling, Elemental Sex Magick, The Grimoire Ghuehde, with appendices on: Nganga and the Fetish, A-Mor, an initiated analysis of Love.”
