First Steps in Ritual

A ritual magic classic substantially revised.

Dolores Ashcroft-Nowicki’s classic First Steps in Ritual has been the

touchstone for those making their first steps into the powerful and

transformational path of ritual magic. When it was first released,

in 1982, it gave students a clear understanding of how modern

ceremonial magic could be developed. Not only did it fuse

different magical traditions, but it also revealed techniques that

had been jealously guarded by Magical Orders and Wiccan covens.

This book became recommended reading in important esoteric

schools and many modern magicians have had their first significant

experiences using the experiments in this book.

Now this landmark book has been substantially revised, expanded

and brought up to date with still more wisdom from the author’s

lifetime of experience in the esoteric field. It is certain to remain

a text book for those on the threshold of a magical life.
