A Practical Guide to Qabalistic Symbolism
Condition: (P) One of the volumes that was once in G. McCaughry's personal library is one that is referenced in the Introduction to (h)Aurorae as having been badly damaged by water, which served as the catalyst for the creation of (h)Aurorae.
A Practical Guide to Qabalistic Symbolism
by Gareth Knight
In this groundbreaking book, Knight shows how the Qabalah and its basic diagram, the Tree of Life, is a system of relationships among mystical symbols that can be used to gain access to the hidden reaches of the mind. He also demonstrates how the Qabalah is applicable to all mystical traditions and religious beliefs, including Christian mysticism, Greek, Egyptian and Celtic mythologies, and even Native American beliefs.
It is indeed symbolic of our universal search for the Divine. Included here are two books in one. The first compares the Western Mystery Tradition with the Eastern system of yoga, analyzes the Tree of Life in full detail, and describes the practical application and theories of Qabalistic symbolism. The second gives the most comprehensive analysis ever published of the twentytwo 'Paths of Concealed Glory' that join the Spheres of the Tree of Life taking into account the Hebrew alphabet, astrological signs, and tarot trumps.
A large section explores the history of tarot design and the varying systems of correspondence with the Tree of Life.
