New Worlds of Body, Mind & Spirit Since 1901
In my book Tarot Magic I demonstrate how it is possible to do ritual magic with nothing other than a pack of tarot cards. But what if you don't have tarot cards? What if you don’t have anything to work with at all? Can you still do ritual magic? Yes, you can, because you still have your mind and your body. No one can take that away from you as long as you remain yourself. If you were trapped on a deserted island or thrown into a prison or lost in the woods, you would still have all you need to work what I have called kinesic magic—the magic of the mind and body. Kinesis is a Greek word meaning "movement" or "motion." Kinesics is the study of the use of body movements and ...
Yoga is not just for the purposes of increasing flexibility. It's more than anything a way to unite your consciousness with higher spiritual realms. Originally, it was a deeply esoteric practice that enabled practitioners to develop the ability to control the elements, see through the third eye, and experience enlightenment.

Most people describe American culture as a combination of Christianity and secularism, one deeply divided today by the tensions between them. Our choice, as individuals and as a society, seems to be between science and "religion."

What we loosely call polytheism is the natural experience human beings have always had of the world of spirit, and is a much more accurate understanding of the world within which we live than the secularism usually considered monotheism's alternative. Polytheism is not only more in keeping ...
Kinesic Magic contains a complete system of practical Western magic that has been stripped to its bare essentials—divested of the unnecessary trappings of the grimoires, arcane schools, and esoteric traditions that have grown up over the centuries. The system requires no ritual temple, no special robes or jewelry, no instruments, furniture, tools, or materials of any kind. It can be performed using only your hands, your body, and your mind. It can be worked anywhere, at any time, and once you learn it nobody will ever be able to take it away from you or prevent you from using it, because it will be a part of you. Kinesic magic may be thought of as the magic of the empty hand. If ...
