Books like The elixir and the stone by Michael Baigent

A definitive guide to the Egyptian tarot, illustrating its structures and symbolism with color plates, widely used by students of the Golden Dawn and practitioners of Western occult traditions.

"Aleister Crowley (1875-1947) was a visionary occultist, a member of the theosophical order of the Golden Dawn. Nicknamed 'The Beast', he was vehemently anti-Christian, and supported the use of drugs and sexual magic as a means to access deeper levels of consciousness. For 100 years his true achievements have been suppressed, his true character deformed and defaced in a campaign of vilification unparalleled in British history. Here is the world's first complete, thoroughly researched biography of Aleister Crowley, demolishing the myths, establishing the facts and telling with verve and style the astonishing and exciting story of his life, including many 'missing years', intrigues, discoveries and adventures - all revealed and explained for the first time. Crowley's grandson has provided exclusive access to crucial information about his family relationships, and there is a compelling account too of his work as a British spy during World Wars I and II."--Publisher's website.

This ancient esoteric treatise was transmitted orally for centuries before being recorded on a series of wooden tablets in the eighth century. It was recorded by a member of the Religion of Light, whose leader was the Taoist adept Lu Yen (also known as Lu Yen and Lu “Guest of the Cavern”). It is said that Lu Tzu became one of the Eight Immortals using these methods. The ideas have been traced back to Persia and the Zarathustra tradition and its roots in the Egyptian Hermetic tradition.Please Note: This book is easy to read in true text, not scanned images that can sometimes be difficult to decipher.
