    About this ebook

    After finding herself the subject of a powerful psychic attack in the 1930's, famed British occultist Dion Fortune wrote this detailed instruction manual on protecting oneself from paranormal attack. This classic psychic selfdefense guide explains how to understand the signs of a psychic attack, vampirism, hauntings, and methods of defense.

    Everything you need to know about the methods, motives, and physical aspects of a psychic attack and how to overcome it is here, along with a look at the role psychic elements play in mental illness and how to recognize them.

    This is one of the best guides to detection and defense against psychic attack from one of the leading occult writers of the 20th century.

      The book itself is interesting - it gives a couple of good ideas regarding psychic self-defense, yet - little of these ideas are practical. They are more of a personal experiences of the author mixed with Christian faith and typica, european concepts of magick. Concepts which, in these days, aren't present in modern magical traditions in a wide degree. Thus I doubt if the content of this book can be used in a practical way. It's a interesting book to read, but it doesn't teach much.

      An important work which all occultists should have in their library. The insights in the book are gathered from a long career and are very useful to those who would take the time to apply them in their work.

      The fact that this book holds up at all after eighty years says loads about the author and about the content. Yes, it reads a bit dated, but not SO much. And yes, it is entrenched in the realm of active occult practitioners, which may make it seem less pertinent to the casual paranormal explorer or someone of the armchair ghost hunter variety, but the message still reads true. Read the other reviews at this site. They cover it pretty well.

      Perhaps the most telling thing about Dion Fortune and her book is something my roommate and I sometimes say to each other: "Dion Fortune had more information about psychic vampirism on one page than Konstantinos had in an entire book." This is not so much a knock on Konstantinos as it is a recognition of Ms. Fortune's high quality of writing on matters esoteric and occult.This is a very useful book, especially students of esoterica and occult subjects, and should be included in any of their beginner's curricula.

      This is a very useful book. You should bear in mind the author's prejudices and time period when readng it and bear in mind she comes from the Western Mystery Tradition. There's a lot of Crowley-like dark muttering about Black Lodges and evil witchcraft, but if you can overlook some of her mysterious rambling about adepts and hidden knowledge too powerful for the common person to comprehend, you'll get a lot out of this work. When she gets around to giving practical advice, it's very useful. I would recommend this not only to occultists, but anyone interested in psychology and setting personal boundaries to avoid the sort of draining and domination she describes.
