Synopsis

Gnosticism and chaos magic make for an unlikely combination, but Steve Dee takes aspects of each tradition and uses his decades of study and practice to fuse a robust set of techniques, presented here with his usual grace and intelligence. Self-knowledge achieved through self exploration, with reference to archetypal images. By musing upon the relationships of the Pleroma, Sophia, and the Demiurge he encourages us to re-evaluate our own perspectives on our selves, and suggests ways of working with these insights. With illustrations by Lloyd Keane, whose own artistic practice is the subject of an interview featured in the book.
