Synopsis
The Qabalah is a system of relationships among mystical symbols which can be used, as was said by Paracelsus, to open up access to the hidden reaches of the mind—beyond the frontiers of reason.The Qabalah gives the means to penetrate behind symbolism. It is the mystical process in reverse. The Tree of Life is a comprehensive symbol encompassing other symbol systems, religious beliefs, mythologies, and provides a means of interpreting them based on abstract and universal principles.Volume One of A Practical Guide to Qabalistic Symbolism compares Western Occultism with the Eastern systems of yoga, analyses the Tree of Life in full detail and describes the practical application as well as the theory of Qabalistic symbolism in the Western Esoteric Tradition.Volume Two gives the most comprehensive analysis ever published of the twenty-two "Paths of Concealed Glory" that join the Spheres of the Tree of Life taking into account Hebrew letters, Astrological signs and Tarot trumps. A large section deals exclusively with the Tarot, traces the history of Tarot design and the varying systems of correspondences with the Tree of Life. It throws new light on the neglected Lesser Arcana and the little understood function of the Tarot Aces and the sixteen Court Cards.Both Volumes, now published together for the first time, end with extensive chapters on the practical methods of "working the Tree".

He also demonstrates how the Qabalah is applicable to all mystical traditions and religious beliefs, including Christian mysticism, Greek, Egyptian and Celtic mythologies, and even Native American beliefs. It is indeed symbolic of our universal search for the Divine. Included here are two books in one. The first compares the Western Mystery Tradition with the Eastern system of yoga, analyzes the Tree of Life in full detail, and describes the practical application and theories of Qabalistic symbolism. The second gives the most comprehensive analysis ever published of the twenty-two 'Paths of Concealed Glory' that join the Spheres of the Tree of Life taking into account the Hebrew alphabet, astrological signs, and tarot trumps. A large section explores the history of tarot design and the varying systems of correspondence with the Tree of Life.
