MAGIC SYMBOLS

This fascinating and highly pictorial book
is an outstanding introduction to the main
magic symbols-the images which hide an
inner meaning-found in the Western
world. Oriental and Arabic symbols that
have been incorporated into the western
magical tradition are also included.

All the main areas where magic
symbols and devices may be found are
explored, from amulets and animal magic
to magic numbers, talismans and rituals,
and there are also biographies of famous
occultists such as Madame Blavatsky and
Robert Fludd.

Magic Symbols reveals a mysterious
world which the reader will wish to
explore even further.… (altro)
