In the first few weeks following the publication of my book: Secrets of a Faery Landscape: new light on the Glastonbury Zodiac (Green Fire Publications, May 2012), I had a series of powerful dreams apparently generated by my magical connections to the land around Glastonbury Somerset. These DreamVisions came in the form of a magical journey and culminated in a final DreamVision in which I was given, almost word-for-word, a Faery Oath of Friendship. The DreamVisions and Oath have since become an important component of my magico-spiritual practice.... It occurs to me that others might also benefit from this work. Green Fire Folios The Green Fire Folios Series of full-colour chapbooks was founded in 2013 by Coleston Brown. Destined to be to become collectors' items, each volume combines succinct, insightful text with appealing, meaningful illustrations. Much more than introductory essays on important themes, Green Fire Folios are condensed, profound, practical guides to the essential teachings of the Magical Way and the Faery Tradition.

Harvard psychologist and philosopher William James' The Varieties of Religious Experience: A Study in Human Nature explores the nature of religion and, in James' observation, its divorce from science when studied academically. After publication in 1902 it quickly became a canonical text of philosophy and psychology, remaining in print through the entire century. "Scientific theories are organically conditioned just as much as religious emotions are; and if we only knew the facts intimately enough, we should doubtless see 'the liver' determining the dicta of the sturdy atheist as decisively as it does those of the Methodist under conviction anxious about his soul. When it alters in one way the blood that percolates it, we get the Methodist, when in another way, we get the atheist form of mind."

According to a longstanding interpretation, book religions are agents of textuality and logocentrism. This volume inverts the traditional perspective: its focus is on the strong dependency between scripture and aesthetics, holy books and material artworks, sacred texts and ritual performances. The contributions, written by a group of international specialists in Western, Byzantine, Islamic and Jewish Art, are committed to a comparative and transcultural approach. The authors reflect upon the different strategies of »clothing« sacred texts with precious materials and elaborate forms. They show how the pretypographic cultures of the Middle Ages used book ornaments as media for building a close relation between the divine words and their human audience. By exploring how art shapes the religious practice of books, and how the religious use of books shapes the evolution of artistic practices this book contributes to a new understanding of the deep nexus between sacred scripture and art.

An eye-opening biography of one of the most influential psychiatrists of the modern age, drawing from his lectures, conversations, and own writings.

Memories, Dreams, Reflections is that book, composed of conversations with his colleague and friend Aniela Jaffé, as well as chapters written in his own hand, and other materials. Jung continued to work on the final stages of the manuscript until shortly before his death on June 6, 1961, making this a uniquely comprehensive reflection on a remarkable life. Fully corrected, this edition also includes Jung's VII Sermones ad Mortuos.
