⭐ Reader reviews
Reader rating
This set is a robust entry into high ceremonial magic, yet it explicitly demands prior interest in esoteric systems. It does not suit casual hobbyists seeking simple fortune-telling or those uninterested in complex Qabalistic correspondences. The material requires dedication to understand the 'essential temple symbolism' and 'intricate layers' described. Readers looking for lightweight, accessible divination will find this overly dense and academic. However, for the dedicated occultist, the combination of Chic and Sandra Tabatha Cicero’s expertise with Llewellyn’s production quality makes it a vital tool. It is not for everyone, but for its specific audience, it is remarkably thorough and authentic.
