Reverend Erik finished reading The Middle Pillar: The Balance Between Mind and Magic by Israel Regardie

Israel Regardie, Chic Cicero, Sandra Tabatha Cicero: The Middle Pillar: The Balance Between Mind and Magic (2002)

For those interested in energy work and who want to understand how the Tree of Life interacts with your soul and body, this book is an excellent start. I think Regardie leans a bit too much into the energy/psychological model of magic, but anybody who reads this book will get something out of it.

@arnemancy I agree, but I always felt like this book was sort of his attempt to convince "normie" psychologists to give it a chance. I may be giving him too much of the benefit of the doubt, but it seems like it doesn't deny there's "real magic" so much as it doesn't matter, the practitioner will see X positive changes if they do Y exercises.

@calliope Oh yeah, I think you are probably right on the money!
