In depth description Magickal Self Defense A Quantum Approach to Warding

The Quantum Mechanics of Self-Defense

In 1931, famed occultist Dion Fortune published a book on psychic self-defense. Since that time there have been numerous other books on the subject, all stressing the importance of traditional ceremonial magick rituals or the use of simple herbs and forms of sympathetic magick. They all have value, but they're also all very twentieth-century. Welcome to the future.

In Magickal Self Defense, retired police officer and Wiccan author Kerr Cuhulain achieves what many have claimed is impossible. He brings the concept of psychic self defense into the twenty first century by comparing ancient concepts with the latest scientific discoveries in the field of quantum mechanics. In doing so, he reveals why many old magickal techniques are effective and provides keys to improving them. He also approaches the subject from a Wiccan perspective, making this the first book to combine modern science, ancient magick, and Wicca for self-defense.

Perfect for beginners and experienced practitioners, Magickal Self Defense is so thorough that it is an instant classic. In the future, all books on the subject will be compared to this one, although with all this practical and usable information, it will be hard for any book to approach Magickal Self Defense.

The Witch's Pyramid
According to Cuhulain, 'The Witch's Pyramid is a five-sided model that helps us understand the interaction of five important magickal principles: ‘To Know, To Keep Silent, To Dare, To Imagine, To Will. 'These five principles or axioms are the cornerstones of magick.' Here you will learn how to apply all of these specifically to psychic self defense. The truth, however, is that the more you learn about how to use the techniques described by The Witch's Pyramid, the more you'll improve all of your magick and your entire life.

Magick and Quantum Mechanics
In this section you'll discover the simple steps that make up the typical structure of a magickal ritual. First there is some form of purification, then a technique to achieve a non localized state of consciousness. This is often followed by a meditation on the elements and then an invocation of deities or spirits that will assist in the magick. Then you raise energy, focus on the target of the magick, and connect to that target. Finally, you visualize the result and ground the energy.

Cuhulain explains that the visualization creates a resonant template that helps collapse the multiple probabilities into the particular result that you want to achieve. You release the energy into the target while strongly visualizing the target achieved energizing the resonance in the target.

This is not your grandparents magick! It's not even your parents magick. This is something truly unique and modern and directed toward psychic self defense. It's also an entirely new understanding of magick and the universe, and your part in it. If you're looking for a way to make your magick more effective, this is it!

Editorial Reviews: Magickal Self Defense: A Quantum Approach to Warding

'It is no surprise that a man who has spent the majority of his life defending others would write the definitive book on magickal self defense. Kerr Cuhulain puts a new face on the old art of magickal warding by presenting us with material backed by quantum theory, the branch of physics that, every day, brings science closer to explaining the magickal arts Pagans have practiced for a long time. Kerr pulls quantum theory down from the lofty bookshelves of the halls of science and breaks it down into fresh and practical concepts anyone can understand and use to protect the body, mind, and spirit. This is a must have book for anyone who wants to live a life unrestricted by needless fear.' - Edain McCoy

'I found Kerr Cuhulain's Magickal Self Defense much more than a brilliant book on psychic self defense. Kerr demystifies psychic self defense in a clear no-nonsense approach that invites the reader to deepen in awareness and personal growth. He explains and teaches techniques in the art of being fully present and response-able, with implications for magickal practice and daily life. His message demands that we develop ourselves as a tool in our own defense as peaceful warriors in a sometimes dangerous world.'

- Ruth Barrett, priestess, musician, and author of Women's Rites, Women's Mysteries

'A realistic and wonderfully effective approach to defensive magick, Kerr Cuhulain's latest book is a must-read for all of us. Straightforward, easy to understand, and delightfully in-depth, I particularly recommend it for healers, pagan parents, and anyone planning to attend pagan festivals."

- Kristin Madden, author of The Book of Shamanic Healing and Pagan Parenting
