Based on the writings of Austin Osman Spare, Aleister Crowley, and the Great Mage Abramelin, blended together and augmented by the personal researches of the author.
This essay offers a technique that individuals can use to create their own systems of sorcery, systems precisely tailored to fit their own unconscious minds. By following its instructions, the reader can cause his or her subliminal self to design its own symbols to represent the powers that lie within it. The result will be what is essentially a personal language of power, one that has meaning only for his or her self, but full of potency because it is his or her own soul’s way of expressing itself.
“Stephen Mace begins with the ideas of Crowley and Spare and takes them several steps further in a way few others have. His writing is, by turns, engaging, erudite and very down-to-earth. Stealing the Fire from Heaven is a must-have for any modern occult practitioner.”- Phil Hine
“Stealing the Fire from Heaven articulates the essence of Magick and Sorcery in a sober, meaningful way. Stephen Mace has carefully drawn forth the connections between Austin Spare and Aleister Crowley and defined the meaningful aspects of creating a personal path of sorcery.”- Michael W. Ford
