ANNOUNCING: Cornelia Cornucopia by J. Edward Cornelius. Our newest title illuminates the Thelemic inward journey as approached in Grady Louis McMurtry’s A.’.A.’.
Cornelia Cornucopia comprises writings from Jerry Cornelius’ Cornelia magazine (2007-2008), which he created as a “way to reach everyone” about “our A.’.A.’. structure, history, and learning requirements”. This classic publication changed many of our lives.
Including treasures from several unpublished issues, Cornelia Cornucopia imparts Jerry Cornelius’ wisdom, humour, and guidance to Thelemites everywhere. The original material continually offers up new gems. One reader of the preview copy commented, “Every time I read the articles, I find something new”. And then there’s the brand-new material:
*A 45-page essay on Jerry’s emotional and spiritual struggles after his beloved teacher Grady Louis McMurtry died. It illuminates the Magical Thesis, the Caliphate, and the Oath of the Abyss
“Admittedly, in August of 1985, I went into a total emotional tailspin. Like a child without a father, I felt lost thinking about Grady’s death. I had no direction and I couldn’t seem to focus.”
*The astrological birth charts of 42 prominent occultists (mainly Thelemites)
*28 pages of Jerry’s personal photos throughout his life
*and more!
We undertook Cornelia Cornucopia as a labor of love. It’s both a tribute to Jerry and a gift for all humanity in the New Aeon. We hope you relish this new book as much as we do.

Before Aleister Crowley, before Arthur Edward Waite and Pamela Colman Smith, before the Golden Dawn, before Papus, Éliphas Lévi, and Etteilla, the first author to describe an occult version of the Tarot was Louis-Raphaël-Lucrèce de Fayolle, comte de Mellet, writing in Antoine Court de Gébelin’s, 1781, eighth volume of his monumental encyclopedia, Monde primitif.
The comte de Mellet associated the Tarot’s trumps with the Classical Ages of Man: the Age of Gold, the Age of Silver, and the Age of Iron. He correlated the Trumps with the letters in the Hebrew alphabet, he described the minor suits in detail, and he provided the earliest discussion of a divination technique for the Tarot.
