It's the turn of the twentieth century and Pamela 'Pixie' Colman Smith is a young woman of stark contradictions: plucky yet naïve, artistically gifted despite lacking classical training, fascinated by the esoteric but sceptical of the world around her.
After the deaths of her beloved mother and her troubled but well-intentioned father, Pixie finds herself in the complex, political world of fin-de-siècle art, trying to get her stunning work seen and to forge a name and a path for herself in life. Across Jamaica, Devon, London and Brooklyn, Pixie is a novel of epic proportions, a tale of the twists and turns, séances and secrets, successes and devastation, of one young woman's talent, grit and determination.
In Pixie, Jill Dawson renders the real-life figure of Pamela 'Pixie' Colman Smith, artist, publisher and illustrator of the still-iconic Rider–Waite–Smith tarot deck, in arrestingly vivid detail, breathing life into a story that is instantly knowable, but has, until now, eluded popular imagination.

The Black Pilgrimage by David Beth offers a comprehensive, inside view into the Primordial Way of the Kosmic Gnosis—its mysteries, cosmology, and operative art: a living initiatic tradition aimed at the re-calibration of mortal life into Kosmic allegiance, where the world meets the practitioner as a revelatory, answering reality and the human stands as a contested hearth for living powers. At its core is a rigorous pandaemonism / animism: the Kosmos as a communion of presences and currents, with hosts, daemons, gods, and the Dead.
From this foundation, Part One presents six pylons—and an addendum on Fate and Destiny—as a coherent architecture of initiation: abyssal cosmology and daemonology, the human as hearth and threshold, and disciplines that re-forge vision, dream, and world-experience until the Living All is encountered as immediate and ecstatic. Central to this trajectory is the awakening of the Self-as-Daemon: the practitioner’s daemonic core kindled into sovereignty and magical relationality.
This pilgrimage does not proceed unopposed. David Beth names the counter-forces that work against Kosmic contact: currents that lure the soul toward division, sedation, false light, and spiritual captivity—shackles that sever attention from the world’s deeper strata and transmute communion into dissolution. The path breaks these bindings through ordeal, devotion, and an esoteric armory required to enflesh the Current.
The pylons range across the decisive stations of the Work: initiatic katabasis and the rekindling of inner fire; necropolitan service and the cult of the Dead; grave-arts and bone-wisdom; vows and thresholds; erotic covenant and sorcerous bond—a singular, intense system with no close analogue, articulated in powerfully evocative language that draws the reader relentlessly into deeper experience.

Two Headed Arrow by David Chaim Smith, offers commentary on a text of nine verses written in what is called a twilight language, which is a style of esoteric poetics dwelling in the elusive territory between logical analysis and what conventional linguistics is incapable of communicating.

The Occultist by Max Théon is a remarkable rediscovered work from the hidden history of Western esotericism, now published in book form for the first time. Originally serialized in 1899 in the Journal du Magnétisme, this unusual text blends mystical narrative with visionary occult philosophy, offering a rare glimpse into Théon’s unique cosmology and spiritual teachings. Théon—an enigmatic figure associated with the Hermetic Brotherhood of Luxor and the founder of the Cosmic Movement—played a fascinating role in the development of modern esoteric thought alongside his wife Alma Théon, whose teachings together formed what became known as the Cosmic Tradition. This edition presents the text in a new English translation by Daniel Kennedy and includes an introduction by Andraž Marchetti, the companion piece “A Vision,” and a helpful glossary that illuminates Théon’s symbolic language. Blending occult speculation, mystical insight, and fin-de-siècle esoteric imagination, The Occultist offers readers and collectors a rare opportunity to engage with the writings of one of the most mysterious figures of the late-nineteenth-century occult revival.
