Occult Book Reviews...This Time It's Personal!

We often see on occult blogs and websites offer reviews of different magical texts. I always enjoy these reviews, getting insight into the books content, getting a preview of the craftsmanship and the attention to detail given to the book. However one thing often bugged me, how about a review of the effectiveness of the material? It's great knowing that a book was created with a limited run of only 500 copies, consecrated with demon spunk and bound in the skin of a near sighted goat. It's fascinating to hear how the author immersed themselves into the work and created a tome that was both in depth academically and filled with practical exercises BUT I WANT TO KNOW HOW THE EXERCISES WORK!!!! Are they practical? Effective? Worth even bothering with? I know the book looks sick but that's not the point of owning it right? Right?

Only 30 hand numbered copies available
Bound in the flesh of Walter the authors Cocker Spaniel
Consecrated by an angry vagina!!!
Get yours today...If you dare!

So I have decided to offer a different kind of review, a practical review of the contents of the occult books that are often sought after or even belong on the shelves of most magicians and occultist. These reviews will also extend to other occult paraphernalia that is often used.

My plan? Pick a book each month and pick one exercise, meditation, ritual or whatever and practice it for the duration of the month. Then write a review of said exercise and give an in depth analysis of  what I find in my own practice as well as those of any sucke...I mean volunteers who wish to go on this ride with me. I hope to offer practical experience to these different texts and give insights to how the content of the book effected me for better or worse.

So to start off I will be reviewing the Wandering Spirit exercise found in E.A. Koetting's Evoking Eternity. The review will be revealed at the end of the month, so feel free to tag along and share your own experiences in the comment section when the review is given. I ask that any who wish to participate keep their findings to themselves until the review is posted so not to influence any one's experiences.
