Best book on practical application of magical techniques I've read. I do not practice magic myself, but it explained the techniques clearly and in detail. I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in learning the methodology of magical practice. (

Understanding how spells work mentally and physically is a vital part for me when creating spells, and this book helps draw out understanding of archetypes used in myth and magic. Includes a great test to help a practitioner discover his ruling element and great suggestions for which pantheon is best suited to a follower. (
