A manual combining ritual sensibilities with neurolinguistics and memetics to create magical entities.
Philip H Farber outlines a system that fuses magical traditions with contemporary psychological concepts. The volume establishes Atem as an inner healer, transpersonal shaman, and personal guide designed to assist readers in achieving self-initiation. The system relies on experiential journeys, personification, and intentionality to facilitate emotional clearing and unlock creative expression. By avoiding standardized imagery, practitioners build personalized metaphors that encourage internal freedom and self-knowledge.
This work draws on traditional ritual sensibilities alongside contemporary concepts of neurolinguistics and memetics. The resulting system utilizes an icon created for the twenty-first century, functioning as a personal therapist and guide for self-discovery.

Why this book is worth reading
You will gain from this book if you seek a pragmatic, hands-on manual for self-transformation rather than abstract theory. It is ideal for practitioners interested in bridging ancient ritualism with modern neuroscience to achieve new states of consciousness. By encoding the essence of Atem into the volume, Farber offers a unique tool for evocation and trauma recovery. If you desire to shatter habitual mental trances and replace them with emergent metaphors, this guide provides the necessary framework. It fosters genuine cosmic consciousness and flexible freedom through focused intention and autohypnosis, making it essential for those ready to bind their consciousness to ritual in a deeply personal way.

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.
