Wake the sleeping god within by binding consciousness to ritual through Philip Farber’s revolutionary Meta-Magick.
Philip H. Farber bridges the chasm between ancient ritualism and modern neurolinguistics, offering a practical guide to constructing and commanding magical entities. By encoding an entity’s essence into this very volume, he invites you to activate Atem through focused intention and autohypnosis. This is not mere theory; it is a hands-on manual for evocation, trauma recovery, and self-transformation. You will learn to shatter habitual mental trances, replacing them with emergent metaphors that foster genuine cosmic consciousness and flexible freedom.
This work sits at the intersection of modern occultism and self-help, reflecting the late 20th-century trend of integrating psychological frameworks like neurolinguistics with traditional magical practices. It represents a shift toward empirical or cognitive approaches within the Western esoteric tradition.

First purchase from this shop. Not a light read, but far more accessible than I feared. The typesetting is comfortable for study, with good margins for notes. Would buy from this store again.
I keep coming back to this one. The historical context alone makes it worth the price. There's real depth here that reveals itself on a second reading. Recommended if you're ready to do the work.
My book club chose this last month. The symbolism is layered and generous to patient readers. The material is presented clearly and the structure makes it easy to revisit key passages. My only quibble is the cover feels thinner than expected. Happy enough with the purchase.
Not my usual area but wanted to branch out. You can tell why this work has endured. Recommended if you're ready to do the work.
Was skeptical at first. It pairs well with more modern commentaries on the same tradition.
Was skeptical at first. Some chapters demand a slow, careful read, and that's exactly the point. Definitely recommend.
A friend in my study group recommended this one. The historical context alone makes it worth the price. Challenging in places, but never needlessly obscure. Deserves a place on any esoteric bookshelf.
Philip Farber’s Meta-Magick is a bold attempt to reconcile ancient evocation with modern neurolinguistics. It succeeds as a practical manual for constructing magical entities and facilitating deep psychological shifts through autohypnosis. However, it does not suit readers seeking traditional ceremonial magic devoid of scientific terminology or those uninterested in the intersection of psychology and occultism. The dense integration of neuroscience may alienate purists who prefer purely mystical approaches. Ultimately, this is a specialized text for the intellectually curious magician willing to engage with complex concepts to achieve tangible internal change.
