May 26 thru May 28: We take an intimate view at new autobiographical book on the life of one of the preeminent magicians and occultists of our times. It includes his life as as a youth as a struggling Christian in the conservative heartland, his voyage into Dionysian awakening in the torrid Sixties, and his transformation into a world-renowned adept on several esoteric disciplines. He reveals his landmark magical breakthroughs as well as his sorcerous pitfalls (and how often they were one and the same). His story reveals the perils and opportunities of embracing the mystic arts, as well as the primordial understanding of Magick beyond the rigid rituals, endless books, secret memberships, and even the manipulated results. At its core and in its true aspect, a magician only reaches his or her zenith when all magic becomes natural, automatic, improvisational, and for the benefit of the greater good. Whether it's the High or Low forms, Magick's ultimate purpose is the reconnection between the mortal and spiritual self, the inner and the outer realities, and the soul and the Divine Consciousness. His name is Lon Milo Duquette, and he will explain his Gnosis on tapping into the wellsprings of plenary Magick.

This personal memoir tells the life story of a survivor of abuse who also experienced strange and bizarre events that seem to coalesce around a secret government-sponsored experiment in mind control. Tessa also discusses new revelations on her life with Philip K. Dick, based on her other recent books,

Could all the contradictions and anachronisms in the Bible, lack of
historical data, absent archeological evidence, Church Father silence
and even the Gnostic Scriptures be in reality pointing to a mythic
godman, a patchwork hero with a thousand theologies? Is there really
any first century proof indicating there was anything close to a fist
century Galilean Rabbi? We take on this herculean task in a CSI manner and attempt to find if there is a man behind the legend at all.

. We visit the Divine Feminine, from Mary Magdalene to Hagias Sophia;
and we also are exposed to a new perspective on acquiring gnosis from
the standpoint of a writers journey into self-discovery while exercising
his/her craft (for artists this will hit home in disturbing yet
wondrous ways).
Ki Longfellow was an atheist who began writing a loose story about first
century Palestine and its Messianic wars. By the time she had finished
her book, Ki had experienced gnosis, transmuted into a Gnostic, and
become the vessel for Mary Magdalene to present her tale like it had
never been revealed before. Ki also shares her experiences of
enlightenment, the Divine Feminine that channeled her to reveal the
alternative Christianity, and shows the passions that all artists must
endure before finding their own voice.

Perhaps the original Gnostics, the Mandaeans are certainly the only
surviving ancient Gnostic sect. Who are these mysterious Semites that
break so many Gnostic molds including making Jesus and Sophia the evil
villains in the cosmic play? And despite their surviving for over two
thousand years, the reality is that the Second Gulf War has brought them
to the brink of extinction. We study their culture and theology, as
well as present information on how we, as members of the Esoterica, can
help their grim plight in the Middle East.
