In 2014, a new Western Mysteries magical training course was launched online, for free, by British adept Josephine McCarthy and German adept Frater Acher. The course was named Quareia - the quarry; a self-study course where the apprentice is slowly and carefully forged into a magical adept. The lesson modules have now been made available in paperback form, due to popular demand. Each paperback work book contains two modules from the thirty module course. The Quareia magical course has three sections: Apprentice, Initiate, and Adept. Each section has five books, and each book contains two of the study modules. Each study module covers eight lessons of in depth study on the module subject. Book five is the last of the apprentice section books, and contains module nine and ten: Planetary Powers, and Understanding Destruction. The Quareia course is written by British adept Josephine McCarthy, and together with Frater Acher, the two magicians have presented this course as a complete training method that is not aligned to any specific magical system, rather it reflects the underlying foundations of western magic itself.

The LXXXI Quareia Magicians Deck Book, second edition, is the book that accompanies the Quareia Magicians deck, and is available as a book only purchase for those who already have the deck. This second edition book vastly expands upon the original deck book, and has full page colour images of the cards, mundane as well as magical interpretations, and a wider selection of spreads/layouts. It is also a book that can be useful to the Quareia Magical student as the powers in each card relate directly to the Quareia magical path. In keeping with the ethos of Quareia, this book is available as a free download on the Quareia website, as it is a required tool for the Initiate and adept section of the course.

Quareia the Apprentice: Book four, covers modules seven and eight from the Apprentice section of Quareia: Elements as Tools and The Inner Temples. Quareia is a new Western Mysteries magical training course written by Josephine McCarthy, and is presented by Josephine McCarthy and Frater Acher, for use in self study.

Quareia The Apprentice: book Three is the third book in a series of fifteen books from the Quareia magicians training course that takes the student from apprentice to adept. Quareia is a magical esoteric training course designed and presented by Josephine McCarthy and Frater Acher.

The Magical Knowledge trilogy is a collection of work by Josephine McCarthy written between 2009 and 2011, originally presented in three paperback volumes as Magical Knowledge I Foundations, Magical Knowledge II The Initiate, and Magical Knowledge III Contacts of the Adepts. It is now presented as a complete hardback collection for the first time. The three individual volumes are still available in their second edition paperback form published by TaDehent Books. The Magical Knowledge Trilogy is a series that takes the reader through the twists and turns of serious magical study and practice. Written by Josephine McCarthy, one of the world's leading magical adepts, The Magical Knowledge Trilogy covers the necessary skills, contacts, and practices for lone magical practitioners studying and working within Western magic. It is a sampling of the teaching and magical work undertaken by the author over a twenty-year period, reaching from the early stages of magical practice right up to the adept level of work, and is designed for the lone practitioner. The writing of this collection signalled a turning point in McCarthy's work, as it began to develop more towards the in-depth training of magicians, which eventually manifested in the form of Quareia: an open source magical training course of unparalleled depth and scope. The trilogy covers magical advice, techniques for ritual, visionary work, utterance, divination, and sigil-making, and includes essays on the history of magic and a look at the mythic storytelling tradition. Josephine McCarthy is a Western magical adept living in the Southwest of England. An esoteric practitioner, teacher, and author, she has written over thirty books on magical theory and practice, including The Exorcist's Handbook, Magic of the North Gate, The Book of Gates - a Magical Translation, and Tarot Skills for the 21st Century. Josephine has taught extensively in the USA and UK since the early 1990s, and has lectured at various occult, esoteric, and hermetic conferences in the UK and USA. She is the designer and book author for the LXXXI Quareia Magician's Deck (2014 Quareia Publishing UK), produced with artists Stuart Littlejohn and Cassandra Beanland. McCarthy is also the author of Quareia, an extensive, in-depth, open source online training course in the theory, practice, and history of Western magic, which seeks to move Western magical practice into a deeper, more cooperative relationship with nature and the environment.
