About this listen

Brought to you by Altrusian Grace Media and narrated by Matthew Schmitz.

Dion Fortune is acknowledged as one of the most knowledgeable and level-headed writers on esoteric matters. In Sane Occultism, she is adamant that magic and occult studies, though often dealing with unseen forces, must still be grounded in reason, and she explains how claims of psychic ability and past lives can, and should, be verified. The book covers a vast swath of topics, from meditation and psychism, through numerology and astrology, to such "black" occult practices as psychic vampirism, blood sacrifice, and other aspects of the Left-Hand Path. The need for vegetarianism, strict obedience to a master, and secrecy are also covered in detail. Sane Occultism is a refreshing, no-nonsense look at esotericism, being at the same time an excellent introduction to the subject and a book that will give even the experienced practitioner much to think about.

Dion Fortune was a British occultist, ceremonial magician, novelist, and author. She was a co-founder of the Fraternity of the Inner Light, an occult organization that promoted philosophies which she claimed had been taught to her by spiritual entities known as the Ascended Masters.

Well narrated and pleasurable to hear. Dion was not affected by the nonsense of her day and it stands up to todays practices very well. Infact, its a must read/listen for those interested in occult practices and spiritual advancement. 10 out of 10 all around.

Very informative.

spending a whole credit for 4 hours of listening can be worth it (e.g Gawain and the Green Knight was fantastic) but for an occult book it has to pack a real punch.
However, Dion Fortune - who has excellent work available - doesnt do so here. Consists of very outdated and very obvious 'advice' for those - potentially - starting on the occult path who are not put off by listening to this. absolutely a waste of time and money. I refer you to her vastly better psychic self defence / mystical qabalah or moon magic.

Short, facile, not worth the time
