Facsimile of 1938 Edition. Dion Fortune is acknowledged as one of the most knowledgeable and level-headed writers on Esoteric matters. In Sane Occultism she is adamant that magic and occult studies, though often dealing with unseen forces, must still be grounded in Reason, and she explains how claims of psychic ability and past lives can, and should, be verified. The book covers a vast swathe of topics, from meditation and psychism, through numerology and astrology, to such 'black' Occult practices as psychic vampirism, blood sacrifice and other aspects of the Left-Hand Path. The need, or otherwise, for vegetarianism, strict obedience to a master, and secrecy, are also covered in detail. Sane Occultism is a refreshing, no-nonsense look at esotericism, being at the same time an excellent introduction to the subject and a book that will give even the experienced practitioner much to think about.
An original novel in which the 15th and 20th centuries meet with uncanny results, due to the invocation of Pan. This work is of special interest to students of magic and the Western Mystery Tradition.
People widely recognize Dion Fortune as one of the most influential occultists of the contemporary era. He is a recognized expert whose approach is transparent, succinct, and grounded in reality. As a result, he has been responsible for making knowledge of the occult sciences accessible to a much larger reading audience. In one of her first writings, The Esoteric Philosophy of Love and Marriage, she portrays the occult meaning of marriage and love as expressions of the principle of sex, or polarity, a universal force that operates from the highest to the lowest levels of existence. In this book, she reveals the occult meaning of marriage and love. For example, some of the topics discussed include the ideal marriage, the karmic bonds between souls, the process by which souls choose their spouses, and the esoteric doctrine about 'twin souls'. She gives strong esoteric reasons for her remarks, justifications that raise issues about the wisdom of today's moral relativism. The book's attitude on matters like contraception, masturbation, and abortion may look puritanical to contemporary eyes, yet Dion Fortune provides these reasons. Any occultist who is interested in one of the most essential components of life on this level of existence, as well as all other planes of existence, should undoubtedly read this book.
Fortune completed seven novels during her lifetime. Four were occult and fantasy themed: The Demon Lover, The Winged Bull, The Goat-Foot God, and The Sea Priestess. The literary scholar Susan Johnson Graf categorises these alongside the work of H. Rider Haggard, Algernon Blackwood, Charles Williams, and Arthur Machen. The other three were romantic thrillers published under the pseudonym of V. M. Steele The Scarred Wrists, Hunters of Humans, and Beloved of Ishmael. Writing thrillers was one of few activities Fortune took part in unconnected to her magical work, and was something she did not publicise. Knight believed these three novels testified to the idea that she must really have loved writing for writing's sake. An eighth novel, Moon Magic, was left unfinished but completed by her protégé and published posthumously.
Fortune saw her occult novels as an important part of her Fraternity work, initiating readers into the realms of occultism by speaking to their subconscious, even when their conscious mind rejects occult teachings. She thus perceived them as a means of disseminating her teachings to a wider audience. Each was related to one of the Sephirah on the Qabalic Tree of Life: The Winged Bull was associated with Tiphareth, The Goat-Foot God with Malkuth, and The Sea Priestess with Yesod.
The Goat-Foot God revolves around a wealthy widower, Hugh Patson, who teams up with an esoteric bookseller to seek out the ancient Greek god Pan. They achieve this with the aid of a poverty-stricken artist, Mona Wilton, who becomes close to Patson as the novel progresses. Richardson described The Goat-Foot God as a masterpiece ... the finest occult novel ever written. (wikipedia.org)
