Dion Fortune

DION FORTUNE, born Violet Mary Firth (1890-1946), was a prominent British occultist, author, psychologist, teacher, artist, and mystic. Schooled in Western Esotericism, she was influential in the modern revival of the magical arts. She was also a prolific writer of the supernatural and the occult in both novels and non-fiction works. As a psychologist, she approached magic and hermetic concepts from the perspectives of Jung and Freud. Known to those in her inner circle as DF, her pseudonym was inspired by her family motto "Deo, non-fortuna" (Latin for "by God, not fate"), originally the ancient motto of the Barons and Earls Digby. Fortune died in 1946 from leukemia in Middlesex, London, at the age of 55.

    When I first attempted to read “The Mystical Qabalah by Din Fortune when in my twenties, it took me two readings and much time to begin to become familiar with its concepts—which in my later life I have applied in many ways as a student of the BOTA. I am very grateful that this new excellent audiobook edition is available because through listening to the book being read to one it is possible to penetrate more deeply into the concepts presented. I will certainly return to listen again. I have a number of excellent books on the Qabalah, but this work remains an outstanding introduction to the heart of Western Mysticism. Ed Conroy

    Convoluted for no reason. The person who wrote this had an immense love for its own word and wished to demonstrate to the world its mastery of the English grammar but with a complete disregard for being understood easily. Plus it’s also full of unfounded information.

    Chapter 1:9 "It is this reason I recommend the white race-"

    I am in love with the depth of information made available in this book. Fortune answers questions I didn’t even know I had. I gained a much better understanding of the Golden Dawn System and Hermetic Qabalah.

    Fortune covers the subject better than anyone when it comes to the paths and the sephiroth. Always insightful, sometimes challenging, and very exhaustive, I believe this is THE best book out there for beginners.

    A very complete guide to the magical Kabbalah, this book is probably the second one which ought to be read by the new student (after DuQuette's "The Chicken Qabalah of Rabbi Lamed ben Clifford").
