Description
“DION FORTUNE” was the pseudonym of Violet Mary Firth (1890-1946), a medium and author and one of the foremost British occultists. She was a member of the Alpha et Omega order, before being expelled and joining the Christian Mystic Lodge of the Theosophical Society, of which she became president. Being dissatisfied with some of the views of the latter lodge, however, she left and formed the Community of the Inner Light. She wrote prolifically, both fiction and non-fiction, her works including Psychic Self-Defense (1930) and The Mystical Qabalah (1935), and the novels The Demon Lover (1927) and The Winged Bull (1935).
“The Flute of Seven Stops,” a short story originally published in 1936, which has previously never been reprinted and which is almost impossible to find, is presented here together with several other rare magical writings, including the six-part treatise “Occultism from the Inside” which has never before been printed in book-form.
The volume is available in two editions—a standard hardcover edition of 140 copies, and a deluxe, leather-bound edition of 7 copies.
Contents:
– The Flute of Seven Stops
– Experiences with the Element of Fire
– The Brocken Tryst
– Occultism from the Inside
