Written after direct personal experience of an occult attack, "Psychic Self Defence" is Dion Fortune"s guide to recognizing and protecting oneself from unwanted esoteric interference. The author treads a fine line between providing useful, practical information on "spiritual security" (revealing for example, a ritual used by Christian Monks, as well as the magician"s "Lesser Banishing Ritual of the Pentagram") while at the same time keeping potentially dangerous techniques well obscured from the uninitiated. Sprinkled liberally with astonishing anecdotes from Dion Fortune"s long and eventful magical career, this is an important work for those venturing along the mystical path, a book that can be read, and re-read, with profit.
