The 17 Chapters of Beyond The Golden Omen are intended to function as pylons, connecting the reader into a deep, personal and lasting exploration of the Trans-Yuggothian Origin and Destiny of the Imaginautical Idealist. Beginning with an evocation of Lovecraft and Smith, each outwardly suffering through their undaunted Spacetime transmissions of a shared Hyper-Stellar Vision, mundane default mechanisms are assaulted with the four elemental weapons of the Time Mage: Numisgnosis, Tarotics, Stateshift and the Lamalien Link. Compiling material from the pages of Sabbatica, Zazen Sounds and Tumzantorum, with the inclusion of writings exclusive to this volume, a Baphometian Beast has been built.

Although there is contained herein material suggestive for practice, Beyond The Golden Omen is, by no means, an instruction manual. This volume, akin to the perspective presented in William Blake’s writing on his “Vision of the Last Judgement,” asks that the reader enter into it. It is only then that the material can be encountered as it was written.

“The way to read this book is as if it were a type of musical composition presented in a number of movements. Contradictions become counterpoints; repetition becomes refrain. The resonance between what is written and what Yeats calls ‘the heart’s deep core’ is the only thing that really matters.” -from the Introduction

Despite what its title may seem to imply, this book is not about “escape.” Instead, it gives expression to a compelling, inward and magical magnetism tending, even through great discomfort, toward evolution, mutation, growth and change, as well as the initiatory process of Integration woven into each step of the Way.
