S O U L FLIGHT About the Author Donald Tyson (born 1954) is a Canadian who lives just outside Halifax, Nova Scotia. His books cover the full spectrum of the Western esoteric tradition, including topics such as the Tarot, runes, the Kabbalah, Enochian magic, the Golden Dawn, and the Necronomi- con. He seeks in his writing to make ritual magic both comprehensible and relevant to modern readers, and believes that magic could not have survived for so many thousands of years unless it offered something essential to the human experience. He is the author of nearly two dozen nonfiction books on practical occultism and several novels related to the supernatural.

It is held that the astral body can be projected any desired distance by the force of the will, even to the farthest corner of the universe, unrestricted by the physical laws that govern the movement of matter, such as the limitation of the speed of light. Vast distances are crossed instantly. The physical body remains behind, as though asleep or in a trance state. The astral body stays connected to the physical body by an astral umbilical cord known as the silver cord that can stretch to an unlimited degree, and when stretched to its thinnest has the appearance of a strand of spider web. The link of the silver cord allows the astral body
