INTRODUCTION
        
        
                Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law.
        
        Magick may be described as a system of communication, a  language 
        used  exclusively between the conscious (the logical  mind),  and 
        the  subconscious  (the  thinking mind).   During  dialogue,  the 
        Magician's  objective  is  to use his or  her  logical  mind  and 
        convince  the thinking mind into revealing a method by  which  to 
        directly   access  the Super Conscious, the  Higher  mind...often 
        called; God, Christ Consciousness, Godhead, The Higher Self, etc.  
        We will refer to it as THE HOLY GUARDIAN ANGEL.
             
        Every  2,000 years or so we enter into a New Age.  At this  time, 
        the  subconscious changes, and so does the language to  which  it 
        responds.   Once this shift has occurred, the Magician must  make 
        the necessary adjustments if he wants to keep the dialogue  open.  
        Should  you  fall  into  the  rut  called  "Tradition"  (as  many 
        Magicians  do) you will no longer be able to effect those  subtle 
        forces  which  you are trying to stimulate because you  will  not 
        understand them.
        
        In 1904 we entered such an Age.  The Angel Aiwas announced   that 
        Horus,  the hawk-headed god, had taken his seat at the throne  of 
        the  Gods.   The  Aeon of The Child was upon us.   As  with  most 
        children,  it is natural for the rebellious attitude towards  the 
        old  ways,  and  the insistence on creating  new  ways  of  doing 
        things.   The New Aeon brought with it a new Law;  "Do what  thou 
        wilt  shall be the whole of the Law" and "Love is the  law,  love 
        under   will".   This  unprecedented  Law  demands   the   utmost 
        discipline.  It suggests that we all have a purpose, a Will;  and 
        that  we  have  a responsibility to follow  that  Will,  live  in 
        harmony with the rest of the Universe, and be who we truly are.
        
        By  virtue  of  this  Law,  not only are  we  freed,  but  it  is 
        emphasized that we protect our originality.  The Magical  formula 
        for the New Aeon must be structured in such a way that it can  be 
        distinguished  from the old formulae, yet it must be  capable  of 
        overwhelming tolerance in order to allow great diversity.    
        
        The  purpose of  this book is to help you  to  discover  the  new 
        language  by which to communicate to your Self, it will help  you 
        to further understand the books already on your shelves, and most 
        importantly;  it  will give you a foundation on which  to  create 
        your  own,  unique methods.  Methods that will work  better  than 
        anything  learned  from any book; because you  created  them  for 
        yourself.  Although one will find ritual and instruction in  this 
        book,  it is presented solely for the purpose of  presenting  the 
        reader  with some effective procedures.  It is my hope  that  you 
        will   familiarize  yourself  with  the  mechanics  involved   in 
        Ceremonial  Magick,  thereby  becoming fit  to  design  your  own 
        rituals.  
        
        Originally, I wrote this book for my three children, and for that 
        reason  you  will  find that I have written  it  in  the  "second 
        person";  I  hope this informality does not offend  anyone.   The 
        purpose of this little work is not to show great literary  skill, 
        but  rather  to shed light on a difficult  subject  further  made 
        obscure  by  authors  looking for  scholarly  recognition.   This 
        limited  volume  does not contain "all that there  is".   No  one 
        could boast about having written such a book.  You should  simply 
        view this as a primer.
        
        The  only thing that I ask from the reader, is that they  keep  a 
        diary.   This  will serve you by creating a "book of  spells",  a 
        reference that you can review to charter your progress along  the 
        Path.  It will also serve those that come after you by  providing 
        them  with insight to an otherwise unknown approach.   No  matter 
        how  swiftly you have progressed if you have left nothing to  the 
        next   generation  of Magicians, then your  contribution  to  the 
        Great   Work   will  have  been  limited  to   its   evolutionary 
        representation. 
        
        The  Path  is a great road to travel, it has been  frequented  by 
        many  great  names:  Aleister Crowley,  MacGregor-Mathers,  Dion 
        Fortune,  Helena Patrovna Blavatsky, Eliphas Levy, to name but  a 
        few.  You will see their footprints along the way.  It is my hope 
        that this volume will encourage you to find your own bearing,  so 
        that you may open up a road not previously charted.
        
                        Love is the law, love under will.
