Summary: An excellent general introduction to Enochain magick
Comment: Hyatt notes early in that he has 'found the Enochian system to be the safest, cleanest and most logical system of practical magick one can perform. But it is an art and as such requires not only study and practice but also inspiration and the love-hate relationship all artists have with their craft' (pg 59). He further advises the reader to 'resign yourself at the outset to take responsibility for your own magical reality. When you have firmly assumed this responsibility you will realize there is no Enochian universe per se. There is only your universe which you can access by the Enochian formulae. There is no Enochian magick per se. There is only your magick, facilitated by the methods of the Enochian system' (pg 21).

It contains Liber LXXXIV vel Chanokh, with detailed notes and further explanations preceding the text itself, providing a lucid and detailed guide to the Enochian system via Crowley, spiced with anecdotes describing the authors' personal experience with the Enochian system.

To further facilitate the ease of understanding the system the authors advise using coloured diagrams, noting that while 'all this may take a few hours to execute but it will save you months (or as in my case, years) of confusion' (pg 46) as through colour-coding it becomes more obvious how the tablets relate.

However, the section devoted to sex magick is small, only two short and somewhat vague chapters tagged on the end. Hyatt intends this 'for the reader who is already knowledgeable on these subjects', noting that he is merely offering 'a few helpful hints concerning how Enochian can be used in these areas' (pg 104). While this may be true, it also means that it doesn't quite warrant the slightly misleading 'Sex Magick' subtitle given to it.

Toward the rear of the book there is an Enochian dictionary; complete with several pages of Enochian words, their pronunciation and English translation. Also included is the Lesser Ritual of the Hexagram, and in the appendix there are several diagrams of the tablets, the pentagrams and signs, as well as eight 'sex magick symbols'.

Lucid, concise, precise in its language, the Enochian World of Aleister Crowley is excellent as a general introduction to the study Enochian magick through Crowley, if not a practical guide to sex magick.

Summary: One of the best books on Enochian Magick!!!
Comment: ENOCHIAN WORLD OF ALEISTER CROWLEY
ENOCHIAN SEX MAGICK
by Aleister crowley, Lon Milo Duquette, Christopher S. Hyatt, Ph.D.

Does Enochian Magick make you want to pull the hair out of your head because it is a complicated system? Then you may want to pick up the book Enochian Sex Magick even though Enochiana can be a complicated system Lon Duquette and Chistopher Hyatt make it more easier to understand. They clear up the publishing mistakes of the past and give you a basic Enochian dictionary in the back. They put in a lot of the works of Crowley but they make comments on it to help those who find Crowley complicated or who are just learning about the Enochian system of Magick. They also include some very important work that Crowley wrote Liber LXXXIV vel Chanokh (Enoch in Hebrew). This book gives out the fundamentals in an understandable user friendly way. Also they give you hints on things that will help your learning to become much more smoother. Also there are important illustrations in here as well. This is a book that will require to be read again and again from tim! e to time and also it makes a nice reference as well. Also the authers add their own experiences with Enochian magick as well. By the end of this book they give you a basic example of sex magick. Also you will find the Ritual of the pentagram & the Hexagram ritual and not the kind of ... ritual that the Schulers pulled off eighter. My only real big ole complaint about this book is why the heck did they make this book so short? I wish they added more since I really love this book! My sugestion to the authers would be to make another Enochian book! The book is 162 pages long and I doubt the serious magician who is interested in Enochian magick would find this gem disapointing. Well we all have our opinions on whats is good but I love this one. I will tresure this one until it falls apart.
out of a possible 5 stars this one gets all of them.
