ABOUT THE AUTHORS
Nineveh Shadrach has a degree in Business Administration with a fo-
cus on Public Administration. He also has a degree in Peace and Con-
fl ict Studies. The spiritual experiences of his childhood led him to the
pursuit and practice of occultism. He has been studying the magic of
the Middle East for close to twenty years. He is an initiate of the Beni
Aur, a teacher at the Magic Society of the While Flame, and a priest of
the Goddess Ishtar for close to fi fteen years.
Frances Harrison practiced Golden Dawn magic for twenty-four
years before leaving that tradition behind to embrace the more ancient
roots of the Western Mystery Tradition. She is also an initiate of the
Beni Aur and a devotee of the Goddess for close to thirty years. She is
a founding member of the Magic Society of the White Flame. She is
also senior editor at Ishtar Publishing.

written in Arabic and Persian, in North America. They currently
dedicate their time to the translation and transmission of this ancient
corpus.

THE MAGIC OF LIGHT
The magic of light is rooted in union between the heart and the mind,
nature with spirit, and the pursuit of Gnostic experience of the Divine
reality. Sublime in its spiritual conceptions and pursuits of human de-
velopment, yet it is practical with its arsenal of earthly spells for deal-
ing with day to day problems. It is best described as: “The spiritual art
and science of a light being dwelling in the Light of all Lights.” It is
applicable for spiritual or mundane matters, elaborate ceremonies of
initiation or nature celebrations, the path of love or the development
of personal power, for helping oneself and assisting humanity and na-
ture.
The secrets of the tradition you are about to explore in this book
were previously the pursuit only of those willing to travel and seek
initiation in the exotic lands of the Orient. Western history is riddled
with tales of the few masters who made pilgrimages to North Africa,
Turkey and the Middle East, seeking the lost pearls of those masters,
whose lasting legacy continued to tantalize them. Times are changing
and, with this book, this amazing corpus of knowledge has become
more accessible to all sincere seekers.
Our world is facing many crises of our own making. There is a
need to look beyond the barriers of language, race, and religion to
rescue humanity from its descent into a clash of civilizations and its
disconnection from Spirit and nature. Sacred magic provides potent
tools that each one of us can use to reconnect with the eternal currents
of Light and to create our small piece of paradise in this world. Magic
is a path of wisdom and being. Sacred magic emphasizes the power of
Spirit in our world and the essentiality of love as a cosmic force that
not only connects us as human beings, but also with other living and
celestial agents. Truly, it is a path of peace, knowledge, and love.

With the greatest eternal love to these amazing magical women:

Nineveh
I wish to dedicate this book to my father, Leo Fierce and to my
dear sisters Dusty, Anita, Cherie, and Nonnie, who have gone
before and who taught me to look for the secret nature of all
things, and to my children, Kathleen and Jesse, who taught me
patience and wonder.
