The Magister, Volume 0

Frater V (Marcus Katz)

THE MAGISTER combines academic rigour with Katz’s extensive practical experience and professional teaching discipline in order to provide profound material – regarding kabbalah, tarot, alchemy, Thelema, and more – in a manner that is accessible and which facilitates practical application to a contemporary spiritual life.
