  Branch Out from Antiquated Interpretations of the Tree of Life 
   
   
   
  The Hermetic Qabala is a rich framework for understanding ourselves, our magickal workings, and the universe, but outdated descriptions often obscure its intrinsically queer and nonbinary nature. With updated, affirming metaphors and word choices, this guide makes it easy for any practitioner to understand and work with the Tree of Life. 
   
   
   
  Enfys J. Book welcomes queer people to see themselves in this esoteric practice and offers a variety of pathworkings, exercises, and spells to deepen their understanding of each of the ten spheres (sephiroth). This book also shows magickal communities how to cocreate spaces and structures that are friendlier and more accessible to all. With a modern, inclusive understanding of the Qabala, you can enhance your magick, fully express your identity, and conquer life's challenges.

  Mythical Women - The Powerful...

  Throughout history, myths have played a crucial role in shaping cultures, beliefs, and societal values. Among these myths, female figures hold a particularly powerful and diverse presence, ranging from benevolent creators to fearsome destroyers, wise protectors to cunning tricksters. Mythical women embody complex archetypes that reflect both admiration and fear, highlighting their influence across different civilizations. Whether as goddesses, warriors, enchantresses, or tragic heroines, these figures have left an indelible mark on mythology and continue to shape modern perspectives on femininity and power.  
    
  One of the most striking aspects of mythical women is their duality. Many goddesses and legendary figures are revered for their nurturing qualities while also possessing a fierce and destructive side. In Greek mythology, Demeter represents the life-giving force of agriculture, yet her grief over her daughter Persephone’s abduction brings about the harshness of winter. Similarly, in Hindu mythology, Kali embodies both maternal protection and unrelenting destruction. This dual nature reflects society’s evolving understanding of women—not as one-dimensional figures but as complex individuals capable of immense strength and resilience.  
    
  Symbolism plays a key role in how these figures are perceived. Mythical women are often linked to natural forces, such as the moon, water, and fertility, reinforcing their connection to life and renewal. At the same time, they can embody chaos and transformation, disrupting the status quo to bring about necessary change. Figures like Medusa, once a beautiful priestess turned into a monster, and Lilith, a rebellious first woman in Jewish folklore, demonstrate how female power can be both feared and demonized. These stories reveal underlying cultural anxieties about female independence and strength, themes that persist in literature and media today.

  Buy now to get the main key ideas from James Lindsay's Race Marxism 
    
  Critical Race Theory is a revolutionary and generally neo-Marxist form of activism, based on the idea that systemic racism was developed and perpetuated by white people to maintain a social framework that gives them a myriad of unfair advantages over people of color, particularly black people. 
  James Lindsay asserts that CRT may sound innocent, but its goals are much darker than one would imagine – its adherents want to take over Western societies and reorganize them, pushing them closer towards Communism. In Race Marxism (2022), Lindsay aims to explore the roots of CRT in order to uncover its true intentions, the threats it poses, and how we can fight it before it’s too late.

  Of Gods and Men

  We are all familiar with the fact that man in former days 
  readily believed in the existence of an unseen world, a world 
  of ghosts, demons, nature-spirits which were worshipped as gods, 
  and a host of other supernatural beings. This world lay all about him 
  and in some respects was more real to him than the physical world. 
  It was his belief in it, and in the power of the forces it contained, that 
  gave birth first to primitive magic and later to religion. 
   
  Even today, vast numbers of people all over the world, and not 
  merely among savage tribes or backward peasantry, but in 
  advanced and educated communities, particularly in Asia, still 
  believe in this mysterious realm and in various classes of beings 
  that inhabit it, to an extent that would surprise most Westerners 
  apart from those who have made a study of the subject. To the 
  Asian mind it is equally surprising that Westerners, with the 
  exception of spiritualists, are sceptical regarding it.
