Many of you may have seen on social media me asking why I request review copies of books featuring group magic rituals when I don\u2019t belong to a group. In the case of \u201cGrimoire of Aleister Crowley: Group Magick Rituals\u201d by Rodney Orpheus there are many reasons why even if you don\u2019t belong to a regularly practicing ritual group you\u2019ll want to read it.<\/p>\n

Orpheus doesn\u2019t just rattle off a bunch of rituals and call it a day. He gives you the background and history of the work. He carefully outlines any adjustments made and his reasoning for doing so. I found his research and insights quite informative and well worth the cover price.<\/p>\n

$\"\"$ Of course, the book is about rituals and \u201cGrimoire of Aleister Crowley\u201d is full of them. After all the background info and details, you get to the actual ritual. I love that at the beginning of each ritual the author lists the number of participants required, how long it will take to perform, how wordy the ritual is (how much text you\u2019ll need to memorize or read aloud), and the list of equipment needed. He also provides diagrams of the way you\u2019ll want the room set up for each ritual.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re an occult nerd, like me, or if you\u2019re interested in magic rituals for more than one, \u201cGrimoire of Aleister Crowley\u201d is a must read.<\/p>\n
