The Work of the Hierophant (English Edition)

The Work of the Hierophant is an in-depth study into the practical construction of a working magical order. The book peers behind the curtains of occult orders and reveals how inner magical temples, magical lines, and egregores are built, maintained, and worked with.

Where many may think that the founding of a magical order is about the physical space, elaborate rituals, and cool hats, The Work of the Hierophant brushes such assumptions to one side and reveals how magicians work with inner contact, beings, lines of consecration, inner construction, polarities of power, and ritual visionary patterns. It takes the magician to the edge of the Abyss, to the depths of the inner temple, and to the still, eternal, and Divine aspect within.

Written for the Hierophant, Magus, or Magister, this is no lightweight book for the beginner—rather it is a book that shines a light on a little known but powerful and ancient aspect of magic that is rarely written about.

Josephine McCarthy is one of the world’s leading adepts with decades of experience as a magician, teacher, and Hierophant, and is the author of over twenty books on occultism and magic.

“The Work of the Hierophant is one of the very few intelligent books written about genuine magical orders” —Alan Richardson Author of Aleister Crowley and Dion Fortune: The Logos and Shakti of the Age
